There and back again - a Cablebandits' tale.

[Reddog*]

Thank you for the tales of your travels to Clays.
It was very nice to have a chance to chat with you there.

Correction: Bobby Orr's home town is Parry Sound (or more specifically, Orrville).

Argh! That's what I meant to write!!!

While I was writing that last post, I was thinking about how giddy I was that we'd been anywhere near Whitby (James Neal's hometown) on Wednesday versus my mild-at-best enthusiasm to be IN Bobby Orr's hometown on Thursday.

Bravo, Mrs. CB!! It was really great to put faces on some of the more 'prolific' STNers in their natural setting.    

[MrsCablebandit]

Awesome ride report! I wanted to go. The pics just prove that I missed a great trip -   for you two,   for me.

We'll be sure to rub it in this weekend how you missed out on a great trip. Of course, copious amounts of ice cream will likely ease the pain.

Awesome report, thank you for sharing it with us!  It was really cool meeting you guys at Clay's.

Maybe next year a few of us can head out your way  

I rode over the Big Chute Marine Railway last summer and got the opportunity to see it from the water.  Here's a shot from the lower end.

Funny you should say that! Chris and I have already started talking about doing something similar to Clay's BBQ at our house next summer. This year's a no-go because someone has to teach MSF classes nearly every weekend in August! But next year...heck, I've already got the menu planned, right down to the types of cookies I'll make.  

August 2013 - The Homestead Hootenanny - keep it in mind!

 I don't know if I can make that one. It's pretty far away.

Excellent ride report  
Sad it's ever  

[Mr.Awesome]

Thanks for the great report, really enjoyed it!  You are fantastic with that camera.  

[slayman]

Great report. Thanks for putting the time into the pix and the write up.

[Orson]

Nice report!  

Bravo, Mrs. CB!! It was really great to put faces on some of the more 'prolific' STNers in their natural setting.    

Yup, nice to see faces  

It was nice seeing the Canadian portion as most Canadian trip reports are either out west or in the Maritimes  

[MrsCablebandit]

Thanks, all!

I really do enjoy putting these ride reports together for others to read and enjoy. Plus, I get to relive the entire trip!

Great report, Beth.  In all the pics from Clay's, well, it appears I am a vampire and do not show up in pics...only my bike.  I'll stay mysterious.

AWESOME to meet you guys.  Looking forward to next year already.

What, this isn't you?

[Dan K]

What, this isn't you?

I thought that was you?!?!?  Alas, I do not ride an FJR, so that is definitely not me.  Hi Ed!

[Cablebandit]

Would you want to wake up in a strange "bed" next to this?  

[sammyseaman]

Would you want to wake up in the "bed" of your truck next to this?  

FTFY  

[Cablebandit]

Well the quoted "bed" made it special for those that were there.  

[CLAY]

I followed Day 1 then forgot to check back in until tonight.  GREAT report!  It was awesome to meet you two- it's always fun meeting fellow STN'ers.  
Good times indeed!

[Cablebandit]

I'll always remember the Clay-B-Que.  I have a scar on my calf from where the cotter pin on the front of your whatever was parked next to your CB200 attacked me.  





Good times.
