Just under ELEVEN WEEKS to go... 22nd/23rd MAY 2010...the Canadian May twofour weekend... 8)

Regarding the Spring Ride...
There is a wee bit of concern that the spring ride may be toooo big a pack, in terms of road rage from the cages and therefore safety...
I think we will have one or two drop out before the ride ... work, family, sick or !!
However, Canadian_Lou and I where talking about the same thing a week or so ago.... We may, in the interest of safety, run two packs, looping around in opposite directions and meeting up at lunch and then at a restaurant at the end of the ride.... :-\ I'll up date as we go along... ;)

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 !!!!!!

Found your comment on safety interesting, I've never wanted to ride with more than one other bike because its hard enough keeping up with what your partner is doing. There obviously should be rules to be followed when riding with more than one or two other riders. What are they?  My experience with motorcycle groups has been negative and I understand why they can cause road rage to auto drivers. If there are unpublished rules or suggestions these might be of help to bike and auto drivers.   BDC

  might i suggest a map hand out and meeting places along the route just to gather up straglers

 :) I'm going to sit down with Canadian_Lou, hopefully this week, to work out a double route...for two crews!!

We will split the ride in to two groups, meet for lunch and then for the main meal at...TBA!!

Tiger, I too am sorry to hear about your fall and hope you are doing well.  I recently asked about group riding rules and no one gave me a direct answer. Today I got into a conversation with the owner of the local bike shop and was invited to ride in a group ride, I declined and asked about rules of riding as he said he is always asked to lead the procession. He gave me a rather long spiel about rules he insisted upon and what conduct he would not tolerate. I was wondering if anyone has an interest in those rules and have any of you given any thought as to what if anything that might be done to make all riders safer when riding in groups?   BDC

 :) Hi All,

The spring ride...22nd/23rd May 2010...is less than six weeks away!!! :o ...With this in mind, given the numbers attending, the ride will be split in to two riding groups when we set away from Breezy Corners, after breakfast.

At the end of the ride, on the Saturday evening, we will again be having our meal at The Mandarin Restaurant in Brampton.

I need to know who will be attending the ride...... and who will be coming to The Mandarin, as I need to book the table to accommodate the group.



PLEASE let me know A.S.A.P.......
