:) Saturday 19th June is the CVMG's major swap meet... 8)... (Canadian Vintage Motorcycle Group)

I picked up a Vision there last year :o oh, and a complete set of carbs for $3.00, yes, I said three dollars!!!!! A couple of years back, I picked up a rifle fairing and a short sport fairing that fit the Vision!!!

Sadly, last years meet was a near wash out because of the severe rain storms we had...wettest summer on record, go figure eh!!!...We ended going on the Sunday for a half hour before it closed ::)

This is a great day out... 8)

Meet up for breakfast at Breezy Corners Restaurant for 10.00 a.m. and then on to Paris (Ontario!!)

The weather report was a mixed bag of hot, high humidity, showers and thunder storms throughout the region...baaaaaaaaaaaaaaa humbug to the weather people!!!!

It was DRY, hot and sunny ALL day, beautiful riding weather... 8)

The fairground was packed for the whole day, with a huge selection of bikes in the car park!!!
 
The swap meet...WOW!!! whole bike's or parts for Yamaha's, Ducati's, Honda's, Harley's, Suzi's, Kawi's, all the old English marks too, etc, etc.....
