Welcome to the Vincent Owners Club Chicago Section Web Thing.

This New Blog style page is our "official" site. We still have an old site at http://chicagovoc.com which will remain until our subscription lapses but will not be updated. Hopefully we will start to update this site more regularly and the blog style will allow any section members who wish to post articles pictures etc. The hope is that we can keep the site more current ..and interesting!

That time has rolled around again and the Chicago Section is pleased to announce that we will be holding the St. Vincent Day's Massacre (to give it it's full title) at Morrie's Place in Ringwood, Illinois. Thanks to Ed Zender the owner of  Morrie's Place for agreeing to host us once again. Here below are some details.

Saturday March 1st. 2014 from about 4.00 p.m. on

Directions:

Go to the Morrie's Place site at www.morriesplacecycle.com  and go to "contact" on the home page for a map. BTW while your'e at the site take a tour of it. Lots of good motorcycle stuff.

This year we are pleased to know that Francois Grosset and his wife will be guests at the Massacre. They are excited to come over from France for the event. As you may know Francois has long been a very active Vincnet owner in France and also makes and sells the electric start kit for the Vincent..

As ever we will be providing food in the form a hot buffet around 5.30- 6.00 p.m. Bring your own drinks. Cost will be around $15-20 per head for the meal with kids under 12 years old free.

The section would be grateful for any donations that you can make toward defraying the cost of travel and accommodations for Francois and his wife. Just contact Glenn Shriver, Neil Donovan or myself at the event. Thanks.


Glenn Shriver will be holding his annual pre massacre "soiree" on Friday 28th at his house, 3121 N. Spaulding Ave, Chicago 60618.  Contact him for any further detail on 773.478.8612
