I just got home form a week on the road. All over NY,VT,NH and Maine I was on my street weapon a reworked FZ1. We did Hurricane mountain not bad a little narrow in places.
We also did a 132 mile six gap loop that is near Stowe they are Brandon gap, Middlebury gap, Lincoln gap, Roxbury gap and Rochester gap. So is the 13-14 still on?

Sounds like a good trip Anders! I have always wanted to do the 6 gap tour and hope to do it before winter. lasts week I went to the gaspe peninsula, Quebec for 4 days and 1800 miles of pure riding pleasure on my Vstrom.

Not sure I can make the 13/14 as may be back in Santa Barbara but someone should be riding!

I just looked at a '74 750k in West Fairlee, VT. today.  I rode Ariel's Duc up there (which was a blast).  The guy wanted $750 for it.  It has 4k on the engine and the brake rotor looks like a mirror.  The original exhaust was pretty rough as well as the seat and rear fender which steered me away from it.  The motor sounded great once we got it started.  I believe that it is actual mileage on the bike as it seemed unmolested and had that patina that old bikes get.  Anyone interested?  I needs the typical tires, brakes, chain, side cover, etc. but there's a great engine.  No title.  I may offer a low ball to see if he takes it.  If you have my number, give me a call or drop me a line.  I told the guy that I wouldn't post his number on the interwebs.
"Sure, if you don't want that bike in your backyard, I guess I'll take it."  "I'll probably just scrap it......"
