Will the real Massachusetts Bonnies please stand up

Just curious how many are from Mass. I keep seeing an 09 Black on 1A in Beverly.

Bike show in Oxford!? Didn't know there was one! My bike is in the shop after getting hit by a teenager in a car. $3,000 worth of damage, good thing it was her fault - stupid B@tch! There is a 50% chance it's ready by this friday, fingers are crossed I'd like to go to that show.

Mine's an 09 black and white t100 and I'm frequently in Beverly. Fabric bags, bar end mirrors, windshield. Great weather this week, huh.

I have a Blue&White T100 and live in Nashua.

I was planning on going to the BIA meet in Oxford, but just made a date for Sunday with an aerobics instructor who rides her own bike that I met online. Wish me luck!

Heh, LOL,
I was born and raised in Waltham / Marlboro area until 1972. I got out while the gettin was good. By way of So. Cal HB and SB then off to Hawaii where I now reside.

But I stll remember the days back in the 60's of the old Bonnevilles. My friends had Nortons and Triumphs. One of my buds even had a Velocette, the original "Thruxton". Man, he was all cafe'ed out too. Had the pudding bowl and goggles etc.

Alas, I couldn't have a M/C then. I guess mostly due to finances and other interests and fear of flying down the road. I envied all the young dudes. Eventually I did acquire my BSA and then the new Bonnie. Emulating all the way.

Rock on Mass Guys!!

Me and about 5 other Bonnie riders from SE Mass will be there Sunday. I've got an '06 Black. Keep an eye out.
