      what is the plan for this thing? Is it a meet up in Delta for breakfast ,lunch or dinner , go on a ride from there or to there ?hang out and drool over bikes as old as me? What is the bit about Timmies?
      inquiring minds want to know so that Maxim Phil and I and can figure out whether ,and weather ;-) this is a viable thing . Although right now my back and neck are a bit ( bs really it's a LOT) tender from our ride around Lake Simcoe on Sun.
      and more fun in the sun on Mon.
      ok I'll settle down now

        tentative plans

        A few XSers may meet at the Tims in Carleton Place around noon .
        Our ride will be getting there and back . We drool and watch games and chat for the aft . Last time we left about suppertime .
        It is a weekend thing so if I was coming a distance I would camp and see the band etc .
        We are going on Saturday ,weather may slow us down somewhat .

            Man I will not be impressed if it rains after this wonderful "work week" weather we have been having.
            I will be bringing my nephew along for the day. He has an interest in Motorcycles but knows very little about them so it should be an interesting day for him.
            Enviroment Canada says 60% chance of rain ....

              I may have to bow out this year.

              I owe a buddy a weekend of help at his cottage and it looks like he's picking this weekend to collect.

              I'll know for sure tomorrow.

                  Hey Carl,

                  Yes and no, he's a good friend. We should plan a pumpkin tour like we did last year. You had mentioned a good route from Westport.

                  I think we're in for a real nice fall, weather wise!



                  Cheers,

                    Yep that would be good but I doubt you wanna follow my new KLR . Oh well it does run on the road. And yep there are lots of great roads real twisty and paved.

                          All I ever see are those icons with a sun, cloud, rain and lightening...how can you be called wrong on that! At least they usually get the temps close.

                          I've just come down with something...funny how that happens a couple of days after the kids go back to school.

                            Sunday is starting to look like the better day. Says cloudy but nothing about rain.

                              Sorry gents, looks like I'll be away for the weekend.
