There's a little informal gathering of bikes every Sunday in my area at the Full Moon restaurant on Route 41 near the Great Lakes Naval Station military base. So I thought I'd take my Interceptor down for look-see on this warm September morning.

Not a huge turnout this particular day, but what was lacking in volume was made up for in quality. Several Ducs, a nice old Goose and a few customs.

This pristine Aprilia Tuono V4 stood out, at least to me. I waited awhile for the owner to fire it up for a listen to the Arrow exhaust, but he never showed. In the background sits an equally nice MV Augusta.

While we're on the subject of Ducati, this gentleman was about to leave on his gorgeous looking and sounding Panigale.

(Below) Something else that caught my eye was this custom Triumph. I would call it a bobber with meticulous build quality and some interesting engineering. The main frame looked to be from a '71 or newer with a custom swingarm, while the suspension consisted of a forward-mounted spring/shock and a huge upside-down new age fork. Modern rubber and discs front & rear. Very cool.
