this looks like it should be some fun, if a bit on the mellow
side, not like daytona or loudon.

ok, here they are, I didn't get to take  all that many pictures
but it was a great time, good food, beer, music bikes etc.
What more could a guy ask for...  ;)

thanks Rick,
 the parts that we made it to were well done.
 I wish I had heard about it earlier and gone up sooner
 the thing actually started on thursday I think.
 the website has most of the stuff removed from the main page but here are a few of the links.

Vermont really has some great cruising mountain roads.
So, on Saturday night we were flying back from the place around 9:30pm and I'm doing probably 60 or so and as I'm coming into woodstock there is a cop on the side of the road up about maybe a half mile ahead and I can't see him 'cuz it's pitch black and there are no streetlights in Vermont  ;D
well here I am flying in and the cop flashes the blues for about 1 second long before I get there to let me know that
he's there, and I thought great, I'm busted but no. thats all he did was let me know he was sitting there.  he could have easily nailed me if he wanted to as I'm sure that I would have never seen him until it was too late. that was cool.

they are supposed to be posting more pictures on the site, during all of the thing there was a guy running around asking if we minded being on the website.

I'll probably go next year, it was a nice mini vacation for me
if anyone is up for it let me know.

He he,
Ron, I used to be a cop in Vermont.  Now I am a cop in Virginia.  Not only that, I used to live in Rutland, not more that 15 minutes from Killington.  I have ridden Rt100 the entire length of the State of Vermont on numerous occasions.  It is well worth the ride.  Thinking back, I used to flash the blues like that to a lot of bikes, then again I rode a bike to, so I knew....

 better next year according to the website.
