Count me in! Definitely, something to set our sights on.  We will have to do some route planning and waterhole selection.  We might want to start a bit earlier than 10am as you know how it can be, we end up leaving about lunch time.  We should do breakfast at about 8AM (maybe Denny's on Hwy. 10 just north of the 401 in Mississauga might be a good place to start.

Tossing some ideas out,

Louie

Somebody on the site made a comment about a Vision getogether in Colorado this year. When ? where ? Do you camp ? are there motels near by ? How many show up for this event ? Some years ago, when the Venture was still in production, there was an event called Vdayze, It was mostly a Venture/ Vmax event, I went to one in New Mexico and about 20/25 Visions showed up. It was around 1990.

Ken -

I am organizing a 25 year anniversary celebration for June in Colorado.  The location is Fraser - about 5 miles West of Winter Park.  Lots of great riding in the area including the highest paved through road (Trail Ridge Road over 12,000 ft.) & the highest paved road (Mt. Evans - over 14,000 ft.) in North America.  Also, a long day riding over the Snowy Range Road in Southern Wyoming.  Not to mention Berthoud Pass, Loveland Pass, Willow Creek Pass and other great rides as the group(s) see fit.

Dates:  June 17 - 23, 2007.  I am currently negotiating with a property management company for reserving condos.  As soon as I have firm prices and deposit info, I will post it.  Look for more details in the next week or two.

If you have an accident on a motorcycle, it's always your fault. Tough call, but it has to be that way. You're in the right, and dead -on a bike. The principle is not to have any accident. If you're involved in an an accident, it's because you did not anticipate. Then, by default, you failed.
