Title: Euro Sunday
Post by: klaviator on February 01, 2016, 09:32:53 AM
I got up early Sunday morning to meet a couple of other riders from the local scooter club and ride to Euro Sunday.  So what is Euro Sunday?  It's supposed to be a meeting of Euro Car enthusiasts.  The organizer invited us to join in with our Euro scooters.  I no longer have my Aprilia but decided to go anyway. 

I met up with Scooter Rick and a gal on a Vespa 200 at 0640.  Yes it was a little early.  Then we rode to Grounded Coffee in Huntsville to check things out.  It turned out that there were more than just Euro cars there.  There was quite the assortment and that included a couple of other bikes including a 1976 Yamaha 100 2 stroke.

Then this 1970s era KZ650 showed up.

And of course an assortment of cars.

This older Mini makes the new ones look huge.

Next month's Euro Sunday will be in Jones Valley.  I may try to go again because this was a lot of fun.

There were at least two of them there.  I would have taken more pics but but forgot my camera.  I really don't like taking pics with my phone but it's all I had.

I've been looking for a clean bodied one to do an LSx V8 swap into to make my practical daily retro driver out of.
