Looks like it will rain Sunday. If the weather guy is wrong, I'll go.

The Rice-o-rama show was lotsa fun, around 100 gorgeous Japanese showbikes from the New England area, couple of dozen vendors w/ a good selection of bargain used parts. Weather was good, and they had beer and a bar-b-q. Met some fellow SOHC-4 members, finally.
Next year, promoters say it will be an even bigger and better show.
I had an enjoyable Sunday ride round-trip of about 300 miles plus 2 ferry rides starting just before dawn, and to top it off, my CB750 was awarded 1st Place against some very clean machines!

736,

Congrats on 1st place! However, I'm not surprised  ;)
As of today 3/13/2012 my original owner 75 CB750F has made it through 3 wives, er EX-wives. Free at last.  ;-)

Can I have a motorcycle when I get old enough?
If you take care of it.
What do you have to do?
Lot’s of things. You’ve been watching me.
Will you show me all of them?
Sure.
Is it hard?
Not if you have the right attitudes. It’s having the right attitudes that’s hard.

Yup,
I made it too. Great time. Even got rid of some parts. Your sandy deserved the trophy for sure. I'm sure this event will only get bigger and better in the coming years. Oh yeah, the Sam Adams and the chicken chili worked well on the trip home.

oh good, it's about the bikes! :)

I thought it was something horrible like this eyesore.

edit: gotta love the green clearance lights on the wing.  I wonder if it's a registered as an aircraft?
