I think I speak for all of us when I say hell ya there will be more rides. 

Thank you again Tiger for taking on the job of organizer/road captain. Your good planning and hospitality to are what make these rides what they are. I'll send you my pics tomorrow. Right now its a cheesy James Bond movie, a pina colada or 10 and bed.

We had a great weekend.  Even though we almost had to pay 3 bucks to enter our own country again . lololol  We beat the system this time though.  ;D

hooha! another great time seeing old familiar friends and met some new folks....

I was impressed that a group that large stayed together so well.... great job Tiger and Lou

no major problems and almost no breakdowns.... SmokeBomb didn't want to say goodbye until we fed her an ignition fuse and wrung her bucket wires dry along the side of the higway near the Peace Bridge  ::)

hope to see 'yall again soon

Once again, what a great weekend...Thank you all  8)

Sundays ride was a bit warmer, faster and more manageable than Saturdays...but less riders

We got home at 7.30 last night after dropping our American brothers at the border and doing a wee tour around the Niagara/Welland/St Catherines area...and would you believe it, I screwed up AGAIN at the border!!!!!!! We...Geoff (Harley), Art(Harley),  Kev' (Vision), Fiddlesticks (Virago), Paul (Vulcan) and I (Vision), ...had to push our rides out of the far side of the duty free car park, up a bank, on a one way street...the wrong way... to get out without all the hassle ... LOL
   
I don't think SmokeBomb, N_V's Vision, wanted to go home :o  I think she was enjoying her vacation in Canada  ;D ...We stopped just before the border crossing and she wouldn't restart !!!. It turned out to be a loose ignition connection in the headlight bucket which in turn blew a fuse...ah, simple fix...hahahaha

I'll keep you all in the loop regarding any rides that I, or others, organise during the season.

Thank you all that turned out this weekend...it was a blast

Please email your photo's to me... 8)

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming HOOOOYA lets go again baby !!!!!!

'82 Vision, Pearl Orange finish, lots of up-grades!!!

Glad all had a fun and safe ride!  Truly wish I was there...  As it turned out my wife's birthday was on the 22nd but that was not what kept away!  I had to work!  On my wife's Birthday!  What's the world coming to????
Hope to see you all soon!

Well working is a lame excuse if I ever heard one  ;D  Seriously though we missed you buddy. We expect to see you next time, no ifs ands or buts about it.  Got it mister?

Did you get pictures of Art pushing his Harley up a bank?  Stay tuned for entertainment tonight!  The only "wild card" we missed was Joe Vac, we may have to drop in on him.

Great day together!

Sadly no pictures of that. We were all occupied with getting our own rides up the hill. I must say Art is a trooper. That things gotta way 850-900 lb.

seems to me 'yall's run to the border is good exercise....


...... last summer Tiger pushed the Mistress over the bridge on the way back home from my ride... now there's a good story  :o

I was watching the "Purple Rain Cloud" on the weather channel and I guess he and Wolf ran smack into some "angel tears"   :'(

great to hear so many had a good time. I never got my passport. So I could not come even if I had the time. I am presently tinkering with both my bikes. Carbs on the Big V4 and the supercharger W/aluminum pew38space modulator on the little V2...rocket. See you at NV's in July. Though I have not made reservations yet. NV, how are we looking for that ride?
looks aren't important, if she lets you play by your rules
