How was the MA rally in Aug?

UGH. I'm finishing a build-out and had to bail on the MA rally. I was up against a deadline and just couldn't afford to take off.

For those who attended-how hot was it?
 
Hi KOF,
This rally was the first Moto Guzzi rally I've ever been to. I had a very nice and relaxing time. I took a great ride with one of the local MA members, Don Tarinelli, he called the road Skyline Road, it was right down the road from the campground. The campsite/cabins were real nice. I met lots of fun Moto Guzzi owners and was able to see some unusual bikes. Most of the bikes were older and Stelvios were over represented. The weather was rather hot but rain cooled things off in the evenings. I had a great time, I'm hoping to return next year, though August is not my favorite time of year to ride, at least it is north of where I live. I'm definitely planning to go to the New Hampshire rally in early May.
Den.

Where in N.H. is this rally gonna be held???? Thank you! Dave!!!
 
Davetac,

The date has not yet been confirmed, however, Randy, NH MGNOC state representative, told me recently that this decision will be made soon, within weeks. He did mention that he anticipates the following arrangements, but the final decision will be up to the Woodmore Campground owners to call:

New Hampshire MGNOC Rally (2017) – Looks like it MIGHT happen on May 5, 6, & 7, 2017.
Organizer: Randy Tefft (NH Rep) 603-355-9373; rt@ne.rr.com
Location: www.woodmorecampground.com, 21 Woodmore Dr, Rindge, NH 03461

My calendar is clear for that weekend, so I hope it happens. The weather in May is much more suitable for camping than the MA MGNOC Rally, usually scheduled in August. Though, as I stated above, that group of riders puts on a nice rally, so suffering through the hot weather is worth the discomfort. As for the New Hampshire rally, I've never been to one of their events. I met Randy at the 2016 MA Rally. I'm sure Randy will put something out on the NH MGNOC Facebook page.
I imagine there will also be an announcement on the greater MGNOC calendar too:
