A great time was had by all, even if it was decidedly damp. I would highlight the class winning motorcycle, a 1978 Moto Guzzi Le Mans II, which still had inspection stickers from Panama, the original country of import. The owner bought it in the Canal Zone back in the day, then later moved it to Pinehurst, NC. The "Goose" was built for Australian specs and the owner still enjoys it 45 years on.
