          Roll Call

          OK guys. Right now, Sunday looks to be pretty good, no rain and mostly sunny.

          So, can we get a bit of a roll call and see who is still interested in going and, preferred day(s).

          As of now, I'm still in and, Sunday is preferential though, if Saturday's forecast changes for the better, it would be a more feature packed day and, I think, a better one to attend.

          So............... what says y'all

            Roll answer

            Sorry but I'm out....I would have to ride tommorrow and the way I'm feeling right now, I don't think it would be very enjoyable, especially if its wet.

                    Well .. It looks like Saturday is a _ _ _ _ ing wash out with rain expected all day. If Sunday holds true for only sun / cloud I will head up on Sunday.

                      Sunday at the Rally

                      Not to rain on the parade but on Sunday there is not much happening at the rally .

                      This is from the events schedule :

                      Sunday : morning breakfast is served by local campers on site at

                      pavillion or at Bobs Diner in the village.

                      This is the only event.

                      SO ...people will be just packing up to go after the night before .
                      You might arrive in time for not much happening .

                      Just a heads up.

                        Weather

                        Weather forecast is improving for my area on Saturday but still rain in Delta .

                        Is anyone still planning to meet at the Tim's in Carleton Place ?

                        If I feel up to it I would probably be there for 11 a.m. and play it from there .

                          Great ... GRRRR .. That will pretty much make it a full wash out then. Don't know what your seeing in your neck of the woods but the wind is blowing real good here now and it's a EAST wind. _ _ _ _ ing EAST wind .... Feels like it will start to raining any time. If it rains all day tomorrow i guess I will cut steel in my garage for the hop bike.

                              I just came in from sitting on the deck and one would think that all is calm and good weather is coming. Perhaps the crap will blow by or side swipe us. I will post tomorrow at about 9:30 as to my disposition.
