OK Thanks  If the weather is even semi-decent I will be there.

Well guys... Bancroft is packed in with fog right now, like Belfast on a spring day!
The good news is that they are calling for a 100% chance of "Rain, Heavy at times" on Saturday... Thumbsdown

Is anybody still interested?

I'll keep checking this thread all day to see whats going on, who knows this might be the one time Environment Canada is wrong! Lol

Unless they're way wrong I'm out.  It's supposed to start raining overnight and continue all day tomorrow.

Sorry to say I'm out.

I took today off and took advantage of the weather and empty roads.
Managed to convert a marginal front tire into a slick  Lol but the tire budget is blown for the year and the weather forecast is not looking to good for bald front tires.

Well, I'm thinking today would be better spent sitting on a stool at the local pub, sucking on a glass...
The rain is coming down sideways, with gusting high winds... it's just crappy out!

Maybe some other time?
I'll keep checking this thread to see if anybody will risk it...

Nope, it is pretty bad near Lindsay as well, time to do some wrenching rather than riding. Just checked the Weather Channel and the forecast for next weekend looks cooler, but no rain.        Maybe.

My bike is clean and I'm ready for the ride - but it looks like the skies are about to let go serious amounts of rain - so I'm out.

I think I'll sit down in front of the Telly with my beer and watch Worlds Fastest Indian Smile

I spent the weekend working on the garage and driving the tractor. I got soaked 3 times but at least the trailer has a hot shower and I had extra clothing. Man what a crappy weekend! But I now have a really nice place to park the bike. Twofinger

Well, it was warm enough on Sat. but the rain was on and off heavy all day. I did manage to get a little ride in for about 20 minutes before it started to come down again.

Season is ending quick! Total ride time last week. 20 minutes! I think I feel something coming on for Friday though.. calling for 13 and sunny.

If we get any decent weather at all this weekend, I'm going for a ride!

 But, I fear this might be the end of the season...

I remember that a few years ago I made my last ride in early December and we got no snow until January.

No way man. They sent Rigger back to Alberta and now he's busy leading people. He doesn't have time for us.

Does this mean the VFR hasn't changed you? I thought everyone that got one of those things had a personality change. But obviously you're immune. So in that case we eastern bastards are asking you to polish your shovel and be prepared to come dig us out when it becomes necessary.

Todays weather was great, 20 on the way home. Saturday is going to be colder, but it doesn't matter, I'm going for a ride anyway.
Any others?
