    Default Southern Vermont meet & greet

    Now that the spring is here, hopefully the weather will cooperate soon, how would a ride to southern Vermont sound? I would like to organize a meet & greet for lunch at the Blue Benn Diner in Bennington Vermont if anyone is interested. The date and time that I'm planning on is April 28th 2018 at around 11:30 AM, if the weather permits. Does this sound like something that anyone here in the Northeast would be interested in? We did this ride several years ago with a few Spyderlovers and had a great time. I'll keep this post up to date as we get closer to that time.

    Sorry but I'm having complete rotator cuff surgery on the 24th! I want to lay low to get healed asap and back riding asap. But I want to be completely healed so the rest of the summer/fall will be enjoyable!

    Maybe we will see you at Americade. Deanna and me are planning to go up on Saturday for the Americade. As far as this ride in Southern Vermont, I just hope we get some decent weather. I hope your enjoying yourself in the South Pacific.

    Default Southern Vermont ride date change

    Well it sure is tough to plan anything with the weather we have been receiving in Vermont this April. We had everything from cold temps to warm temps, snow, sleet, freezing rain, and clouds, sunshine and warm temps in the recent days. The trip for the Meet & Greet at the Blue Benn Diner, I decided to move it to Saturday May 5th due the the forecast looking like rain this Saturday. So it will still stand for dinner at around 11:30 am at the Blue Benn Diner in Bennington Vermont. Only it will be on May 5th instead of April 28th. Hopefully mother nature will cooperate with us for the weather then. See you all there who care to join in for this ride.

    After seeing the forecast for this Saturday, I was wondering whether or not this was still on. Hopefully the weather on May 5 will cooperate!

    Thanks for the update!

    Default Looks like good weather for Saturday's ride

    The plan for Saturday's ride to the Blue Benn Diner in Bennington Vermont is still on for Saturday May 5th @ 11:30am. The weekend weather is supposed to be clear and Sunny. Thursday and Friday look to be rainy. We just can't seem to get a streak of sunny days. Either way, I'm looking forward to the ride this Saturday. Me and Deanna will most likely make this a two day ride for us and spend some time in Southern Vermont. I need some get away time for sure!
