Badhardtail Posted October 15, 2008 #1 Posted October 15, 2008 Well I've owned my 07 for almost two months now and I've done about 1500 miles in and around Vermont and down to Cape Cod twice. Everyone is right, it is a sweet ride. I've still not gotten accustomed to the noises that it makes. Harleys are a lot differant. But anyway, my wife and I did a 200 miler on Sunday and we finally saw another Venture (two riding next to each other) We were in the town of Manchester in bumper to bumper traffic,damn tourists! But anyway they saw me and I yelled hey there's a Venture and got a big smile from both of the quys. I know kinda hookie but it was pretty cool to see another one. If any of you riders are in The Vermont area on Columbus Day Weekend come down to the Apple Pie Festival. Its a day long event in the town of Dummerston and usually they see at least 500 to 600 hundred bikes stop for Pie!!! Great area to ride in Joshua
mini-muffin Posted October 16, 2008 #2 Posted October 16, 2008 Well that's nice. Always great seeing other ventures. So where are your pics? Margaret
got2mnytoys Posted October 16, 2008 #3 Posted October 16, 2008 That's the very reason I bought my venture got tired of seeing my harley every time I rode , until I met some of the great folks on here I think I only saw maybe 3 ventures in 2 years.
Badhardtail Posted October 16, 2008 Author #4 Posted October 16, 2008 sorry, I still haven't quite figured out where to go on this site. I was supposed to put this in the wateringhole and screwed it up to sending it here Joshua

mini-muffin Posted October 16, 2008 #6 Posted October 16, 2008 sorry, I still haven't quite figured out where to go on this site. I was supposed to put this in the wateringhole and screwed it up to sending it here Joshua I'm sorry, I didn't mean to make you feel bad. Here's a big hug to make it all better. Margaret
Badhardtail Posted October 16, 2008 Author #7 Posted October 16, 2008 Jonesy, we're located in the small town of East Dummersaton Vt. which is off of rte 5. (Moved here four years ago from Cape Cod and haven't looked back!!!) The Apple Pie Festival is a gas! The volunters make a lot of pies for the week prior and always sell out on the festival day. We've seen bikes and riders from New York, Jersey, Conn., R.I., Maine etc. This year unfortunetly we had several bad accidents within a few miles of the center of town, the roads are very curvy and very hilly. Sometimes when a large group gets together some of the riders tend to drift over the line a little. I highly recommend that anyone attend next year. Margret, thanks no harm done Joshua
jonesy Posted October 17, 2008 #8 Posted October 17, 2008 We've been up there a few times, go to NH. for smokes once a month and always go a ride sometimes to the east , sometimes west, and make a day ride out of it. Went to Rutland in June up 5 then over. Will keep a eye out for ya next time thur.
MikeM8560 Posted December 12, 2008 #9 Posted December 12, 2008 I was the same way when i bought mine and the first year the V stars came out at Lacons bike week the firt year I didnd see any others. then it was nice to see more and morein later years.
