    Made it home by 3:30. Good clear run. Thanks Wayne for a memorable XSNorth. Great to see so many make the trek to the North.
    Stopped in to see TinMan905. on the way home.

    Did anyone get a picture of Duwayne with the Black Bear riding pillion ?

                    now, "That was Fun"

                    I sure had a great time at XS North. Great Roads, Good Eats, Fun People and some Cool XS's. Ride north on Friday with hamjam and john was excellent. Also had a great ride back to NY via Orillia, Orangeville & Guelph with Mo. Even got to make an early AM coffee run in the sidecar, now that was way cool. The Niagara Escarpment really had some great scenery and roads too! I need to ride that area again ...... Heading back I stopped at QEW Exit 74 in Grimsby at the Fifth Wheel for Buffet. Was as good as Mo described. Then at Peace Bridge it only took 10 minutes in que at customs to get back into Buffalo USA. Got to Chautauqua Lake around 5pm. Plan to head home to Atlanta on Thursday or Friday.










                    I've got some more pics which I will post tomorrow.

                        Oh no Rochelle! We have had more mishaps at this rally than any other I've been to. Hope you are ok. Glad everyone made it home anyways. It was a good rally overall. Thanks to all who attended.

                                I've finally worked on a few more pics to reduce the file size for more efficient up / down loads. I'll get a few more pics posted when I get back home to Atlanta. We sure had some great scenery along the way.



























                                The weather sure was fantastic.
