The Owls Head Transportation Museum in Owls Head,Maine will be hosting their annual Vintage Motorcycle Meet September 1st & 2nd. Sam Cormier and I will be meeting there on Saturday September 1st. Anyone in the Northeastern USA and Canada ( yes that would be you Vincent) is welcomed to join us. Maybe if we can a third bike to attend, we could go for a Guinness world record for the most WD bikes gathered in one place in the USA since WWII.

Of course I'd love to be there, alas this year is not in the cards for me. Next year I could probably convince Mike to bring his M20 too, making it a quartet!
This year on the same weekend we have an event at a restored 1940's village, plan to have my M20 there, will post pics.
We are in discussion to make the Military Muster next year in Ontario- may make it an extended tour and swing by Maine on the way back!
Have fun, looking forward to pics!

I'm the good looking one!! Short, dark and handsome, oh well....two out of three ain't bad!

Sounds like a great idea Rick. I do the same thing here, I sometimes wonder who's who in the pictures, but I do know who some of the cast of characters are!

Hi James,
Is that a 69 in a tan colour background for the unit number on the tank, signifying the West Nova Scotia Regiment? I was going to do the same on my M20, but the decal guy came up with more of a gold background. Then decided to put a red 69 on a blue/white back for a Signals unit.
Cheers, Vincent

Hi Vincent,

That would be more of a Sam question. When I did my tank, I went to the local sign maker and had him make an adhesive stencil with the numbers and the Airborne image that could peel away. This left me with the number/image field open so that I could paint it by hand. So the end result is no vinyl sticker on my bike, a hand painted look without having the skills of a sign maker.

Hi Lex,

The guys on the other side of the pond must be chuckling at a gathering of five WD bikes being a major accomplishment!
