Wachusett Mountain Barbecue Festival

October 27, 2013 by Road Captain

What is it about motorcycles and barbecue that go so well together? Maybe it’s the fact that so many great BBQ spots are on lonely curving stretches of pavement free of traffic. Maybe it is that barbecue hails primarily from southern states where the climate is more conducive to riding. Or maybe it’s just that bikers have better taste in general and food is no exception to this theory! Wachusett Ski Resort hosted a barbecue festival this weekend featuring dozens […]

October 26, 2013 by Road Captain

If you have ever taken a ride through Vermont in any season except winter, you can definitely appreciate the amazing views, spectacular roads and inexplicable calm that covers the entire state. On the way up to (and ultimately back from) Canada, we covered some beautiful terrain starting at Quechee Vermont and making our way up to Burlington. Clearly this ride took us much further north but for the sake of a digestible route, we’ll focus on the Quechee to Burlington […]

We flock by the droves to watch things die – Rated Ride – West (7.625/10)

October 6, 2013 by Road Captain

New England in autumn is a favorite destination for travelers the world round. They come for the foliage, the cool air, small town charm and a slice of home baked apple pie.

There is no better addition to a beautiful landscape than glossy paint and sparkling chrome blowing up leaf piles on the side of […]
