More Aunty Qsssss

**cheesy** · 09-07-2014, 07:13 PM

Strange as it seems, I got invited to a local Antique MC Club breakfast this morning. Kind of a meet and greet. Or, more likely, I was being screened prior to applying for membership.

Anyway, a fantastical breakfast and extensive BS session was had that included a one on one tour of the host/club presidents stash of bikes. A short ride was planned but I excused myself from that as I was away from home most of yesterday.

Wish I had gotten more pictures.

The red bike is a 1958 Moto Guzzi. The guy kicking over is 74. Looks 55. The blue bike is a big Beemer.

BSA Lightning. No idea of the year. The blue CB750 is an early sandcast model.

Oh, no! depending on how extensive they search, surely they'll uncover your Chinese bike connection! You won't get in for sure!!

Kidding aside--love those classics!!

I was upfront with the Chinese connection, if only by accident. The host was showing me his early Moto Guzzi V7 that had a Vapor speedo combo on it and I let it slip that they were very popular with Chinariders.

I hope to be that 74 year old dude someday.
