                Might be a good time to bring back the virtual toast.

                Cobia raise a glass with us across the miles, say about 10 pm Saturday. We will be in the heart of some beautiful mountains, surrounded by twisty roads, great food, classic jap bike riders, and XSively wonderful folks. Join us in spirit as we toast you and wish you were here.

                  Yeah brother, that makes two of us!! Don't think for a moment that I won't be there in spirit, really enjoyed last year with all of you. It was very special to me, as I'm sure it was to all who were there. Plz take a lot of pics so I can enjoy it vicariously.

                              The Weather Channel is predicting rain in Ontario and Northern USA on Wednesday and Thursday, so...

                              Leaving this morning (Tuesday) 9:30, will take an extra day on the Blue Ridge or Skyline Parkways.
