OK....  Who in the Golden Horseshoe  Southern Ontario is up for a ride next weekend?  I propose a one or two day jaunt to Pencil-vania to enjoy the fall hues and twisty roads!  What say all of you!

Hey, I just noticed this thread~~  Glad to see you guys had a good time.  @ Shil - if you  read this....if it's the weekend of  20-21Oct, and it's North Campus, look for NK there - he's one of the instructors.  We are in the pic thread in Members only.  Hopefully the weather will shape up for Saturday, but Sunday is looking good for you guys to be out at the course.  Have fun!   Thumbsup

My course was last Sunday.  Recommended highly, I had a great time.  

About this coming Sunday: anyone up for a ride?  Head up to Bancroft, or Huntsville, or anywhere at all?  It's supposed to be 20 degrees and sunny.

Bike right now is in semi peices. Installing a couple flood lights  Lol
While I have the plastics off I want to label some of wires I put in there a few years ago.  Good thing I used a couple of different colour wires.
 
 If I get that done .... I should rake some leaves....

I guess what I am saying I don't think I'll be able to go anywhere!

Ooopss...sorry...my misunderstanding.   Embarassment  

Turns out he may get the weekend off anyways.  Humber emailed and said they could "afford" to let a couple of instructors off this weekend, so he volunteered.  Whether he gets it is still to be seen....

Cheers...

Hey, in case anyone else is interested, jimmy and I are meeting at 9:00 at a service plaza on the northbound 400: the one not too far past Wonderland.  We’ll be heading up towards Huntsville through Bala, then back south down the 507.  Or something like that.

It’s supposed to be too nice a day not to go for a ride.

NK and I are wanting to ride tomorrow as well, but we aren't sure we can do the 9am thing.  Going north sounds great, but we have to be back home for about 3-4-ish.  Any other places to hook up just in case if NK decides to go this route?

A great day it was for riding indeed!  We got home about an hour or so ago from my parents' (where we had our little Trike Rider babysat for the day).  So sorry we didn't get to hook up, guys.  Time wasn't on our side.  We did however, make it to Gravenhurst, road some roads that led us to Bala, and then came home.  I have some shots of the Fall colours, so I'll be posting them up sometime....hope you guys had a nice day too......LOTS of bikes out today....LOTS.....

You were in Bala? And you didn't stop in? What a day!!!! What a day !!!!!

I spent the whole weekend on the tractor. It was fabulous. But of course on the way south we saw tons of bikes and that sure hurt. The Kubota will not do 50 over the limit. Hell it won't do the limit. It won't even do 50.

You can "spank" NK when you see him.  We stopped into the McD's for lunch in Gravenhurst, and I TOLD him to call you while I had "potty break", and he just rushed me out so we could get going.  He figures we'll be seeing the lot of you guys in 6 weeks at some show at the Convention Centre or something like that....
