Road Trip

Gathering at Autumn View Farm

Another beautiful day for a ride! The sun was shinning brightly and there were some puffy clouds in the sky to lend interest. A very nice couple in Warren, MA, opened their house and grounds to the MA/RI/CT Italian and Exotic cars crowd. The event was listed on the NY-AROC calendar, and two other Alfas joined ours for both the Gathering at Autumn View Farm and the drive up to Warren from Glastonbury. Nice, friendly crowd, good food, great roads, and a few interesting sets of Golf Cart Polo....


Kathy and Fred compare notes for the trip. That’s Mike’s crisp red GTV next to Fred’s. This is the lot at Somerset Square in Glastonbury. The fChat CT folks hold regular get-togethers here on Sunday mornings. On this occasion, it was also the starting point for the ride up to Waren. Strength in numbers, perhaps, but nobody got a speeding ticket in spite of some very spirited driving. Likely our spider was the lowest-powered vehicle here, and that included two Dcati motorcycles...

We traveled back on US 20 into the Springfield area, then across northern CT through Suffield (bought some pumpkins) Granby and Winsted, then down 8 and 15 home. The weather held clear and balmy.
