How about meeting in Bancroft?  On October 25th?  For lunch on Saturday?  Maybe just for the day, maybe spending the night in town and continuing the fun on Sunday?

The weather could be iffy, and I haven't booked anything yet, but maybe this might work if there's any interest.  

What say you?

I might actually be able to do that. I have friends who are building a log cabin in Bancroft. He used to race and just bought a new Monster 2 weeks ago and talked his wife into buying a Kawi 500. Maybe he'd like to join us if it happens. I'll keep track of this thread.

Let's keep an eye on the weather and on this thread.  It'll be good to get out on one last blast before it's too late.

And let's leave my ass out of this.

Yes.
And thank-you!  Smile

Once again, work rears it's ugly mug. OTOH, the weather's bound to be stellar.  Embarassment

Best wishes.  Bigok

I'll keep that day open.
Might be a good way to finally get that heated liner (I'm thinking the made-in-Canada blackjack, $200 retail for liner (i.e. vest with sleeves) but just an on-off switch, no heat-troller.)

Hey JF, I have the Black Jack and it's been great. But I seem to remember paying only around $125.00
I also only have an off/on switch I got at Home Depot and it works just fine.

My schedule now appears to have a conflict that weekend so..................right now it's not looking good. Thumbsdown

Any suggestions for where to meet for lunch,

Oh if I for some reason end up leading, pay attention this time, I can't see a high vis suit if you are 2 km behind (and around the last corner).

I'm riding out today for an extended long weekend

The bike is clean, chain is lubed -  going to take a colours ride up to Parry Sound via Elmvale>Bala>Port Carling>Rosseau>Huntsville>Sundridge>Parry Sound.

Calling for 18c  and full sun -perfect Cool
I will be on the bike again on Friday with my wife for a colours ride - loop unknown as of yet -Although I'm sure she would welcome a nice lunch a The Windermere

Have a great Thanksgiving Bigsmile - gobble gobble.

I totally forgot about the Craftsman. The Fox & the Hounds pub is open, but I would give it a pass,  Thumbsdown Thumbsdown. It has really fallen apart in the last little while...

Slight thread jack...

Was there a single motorcycle rider in Ontario who was not on the Peterson road yesterday?

But it was a gorgeous day for it...

Anybody in the Barrie area? I am still at CFB Borden and I now have my bike here with me Inlove  I am here for 1 more week. I graduate Friday the 17th of Oct.  If anyone is around and you see a silver viffer with Alberta plates, and the rider wearing a black joe rocket leather jacket with honda all over it, and a silver Nolan helmet that would most likely be me...unless I have an identical pervert,  I mean twin.
