Keene, NH lunch at Applebees in November 2005. That may be Scotties' green Goldwing in the background. A decent size gathering occurred for early November.
I took a different route up to Keene than typical, Route 32 up through Royalston, MA and into NH. I thought it would be a nice scenic ride. I was wrong. At that time Route 32 was a piece of sh*t in MA with frost heaves and pot holes galore. I discovered later that month that the right front engine mounting bolt to the frame had sheared off. The engine had sagged a bit. I would never have expected that to happen. At least the fix wasn't hard.
