A few years ago I was on an overnight tour with a friend and we ran into a group of Lotus car enthusiasts at a Dunkin' Donuts somewhere around Stow, Mass. I rode over to them on my Classique and asked if I could join their club. They were delighted by the bike, though slightly disappointed when I admitted that it wasn't "their" company's product. Still, I got my picture in their online newsletter.
