The Heart of the Green Mountains Swap Meet is a very nice low key swap meet put on by Emerson Motor Works of Rochester VT. They specialize in airhead BMWs and usually have a number of them for sale at their shop across the road from the field where the swap meet is held. This is right on Vermont Route 100 which is a treat to ride anytime on a motorcycle. Camping is free if you want come early or stay late. BMWs are in the majority but there is always a good mixture of makes and years.

On Saturday June 7th I rode my 1988 BMW K75 to the meet (55 miles) with my wife on the back. My son rode along on the 1973 Honda CB350F. The weather was warm and the road was fun. We enjoyed the sights and bought lunch and I took about 250 photos of all the bikes there. I did not make a CD of this event but used the motorcycle photos on other CDs.
