There was a car show and BBQ at our local golf course today so I took my 2013 Moto Guzzi Stelvio.
There were so many Harley riders there, it looked like Captain Jack Sparrow was having a hiring fair.
She's one lonely Italian...

Was today a holiday or was this something that happened after work?

An after work thing.

We have a number of local cruise nights. There is a HUGE one at Gillette Stadium every week where the Patriots play. I have never gone but have a buddy that shows up a couple times a year.

Amazing number of the old guys on this tour I'm on ride. I think they are mostly Harley guys.

I get why guys like them (the big touring rigs anyway). A customer had a 2000s FLHT and it was comfy on the highway. Bit of an ill-handling pig around town to be honest.
I had an '83 Honda Goldwing Aspencade and it was a great bike for long distance touring. I sold it because I bought my Stelvio and didn't need two bikes that fill the same role.
The Stelvio is best described as a "mileage disposal unit" I can put in about 700km in a day on it which is plenty for me. It's about 120hp with the tune I have in it and gobs of torque. Shaft drive as it should be.
