anybody go to Marcus Dairy on Sunday's?

Re: anybody go to Marcus Dairy on Sunday's? (Busamouse)

I grew up on Long Island and used to make the trip to Marcus Dairy for Super Sunday's with a old Ducati friend of mine.Great Rides.
I would love to make that trip again with him after 11 years , but I lost touch with him and I moved down south.
So enjoy the trip for me, maybe I will get to make the trip again one day.

I've got a lakehouse on Mahopac Not often you meet folk from there!

I do Dairy once every couple years. Too many squids and idiots attracted to that event for my tolerance but it can be nice to go if only for the bike viewing. Too few sportbike-oriented vendors too

Re: anybody go to Marcus Dairy on Sunday's? (doocatiboy)

a lake house in Mahopac? is it on lake Mahopac or another of the many lakes around there? i lived on lake Cassie.
there were squids back in the 80's too. as a kid that was the cool part. watching guys on extended swingarm bikes do smoke shows and wheelies with the Conn. State Police right there. the Harley guys were real 1% types not the mainstream avg. Joe crowd they are now. once i got my 1st road bike (kh 400 triple with expansion chambers.) we'd ride up and Dad and I would "get on it" on the way out and make noise. it was awesome. i'll be up there for 2 Sundays and hope to go both times.

I live about 1 mile from Marcus Dairy. I usually spend my time riding rather than going to Marcus and looking at other bikes. That said on any given Sunday in nice weather there will always be a crowd at Marcus. Of course this crowd has two distinct groups. Sportbikes and Harleys. Since I pretty much ignnore the Harleys I can only comment that you will see some nice standards and sportbikes there. Some are bone stock, some are highly modified, some are classsic. The four Super Sunday events that they do every year is much more of a Harley fest. If anyone goes to Marcus on a regular Sunday (I don't do Stupid Sunday anymore) post it here, I would break my normal routine to go over there, drink some bad coffee, look at a few bikes and then take I nice ride up into the foothills of the Berkshires. I do know most every good motorcycle road in Western Connectitcut and east of the Hudson New York.

On the lake. My summers are difficult: ride or wrench the Ducs or take one of the skiis out on the water

Still the same extended-swingarm crowd today who insist on revving their engines as they idle down the access rd behind a line of traffic

Ducaholic, what ARE those great rds? The best I know are 22, 39/37 around the lake, and parts of 7 above Kent. Explored a bit through CT on the way to Newport but didn't find a whole lot of interesting roads. And we looked (at least we think we did!).

Re: anybody go to Marcus Dairy on Sunday's? (mikeinwi.)

If you guys want to hit some nice roads in the area I know some sick back roads on 53 and 58 not to far from Marcus Dairy. The ride has some nice views and rest areas overlooking the reservoir. I go up a few times a year with some friends. We can do a nice 30-40 mile loop around the reservoir and be back at Marcus Dairy in 1-2 hour.

So when ever you guy come this way post up and let us know it will be fun

Yeah, I know (and ride often) the routes you mentioned well, was hoping you may know a few 'secret' rides I may do the show this wkend if only to look for slight deals on some gear

Re: (doocatiboy)

I do know a few secret rides, but as far as posting them..............
