Just got back from Vintage bike night at the Steer In, 10th and Emerson. Quite a turnout. Mostly Late 60s British, but some 70s Japs and really quite a bit of everything.

Film at 11 am tomorrow, I think this is a weekly gathering.

Hey I was there!! Spent most of the time talking with Steve (Tango911) and Gordon (the guy with the really shiny orange CB750. Guess I should have stopped gawking at all the bikes long enough to recognize people. Wish I knew you were coning....I would have looked for you. If you saw the blue VFR, that was mine.

I was kinda looking for you. some guy showed up on a nice 550, thought it might be you, but not tall enough. But you know I have some kind of facial recogntion syndrome where i can't put a name with a face to save my life. I mean i have it really bad, so i need help. I don't think I've met Steve.

But i certainly didn't see a blue VFR, i can tell bikes. I left about 6:45 and bikes were still coming in. I saw Gordon's CB750 and have a picture of it. he is a Member of MSTA and he was at the River City Ride over the weekend, but on a different bike. I also saw his bike at Brockway Pub in Carmel a few weeks back. yes it is very nice, but i can't help taking a poke at it. The sidecover wing emblems are on backwards.

But his runs and mine doesn't so he wins.

Ah that explains it....I think it was 7 or after before we got there. You picked a good one to attend....that's probably the biggest turnout I've seen there for a long time.

Chris: Possible correction, if we're talking about the same shiny CB750, guys name is Craig Voris, not Gordon.

I think there was at least one other orange 550 and 750 there (both pretty shiny

). Gordon's bike was not totally stock....had some aftermarket blinkers and headlight ears, was lowered slightly, and had a black 4-1 exhaust. He had polished the cases up really nicely (the shiny part) and the bike had beautiful original orange paint.

Oh yeah, I saw that one too. Got a picture, I'll be posting soon. So there were two.
