 I'd love to but its a bit too far,tell you what though  , I'll pick up a six pack of Molson Golden and toast you fellows , maybe even call you! ;D ;D :D ;)

[Night Vision]

send us a pic of you and your vision... life size of course.... and we'll prop yer up for a group picture...

..... make sure your toasting hand is in the correct position.. we'll do the rest ;)

[Rick G]

Its a deal! If I can find a poster shop in this many horse town . Lots of horses not too many large size poster shops. Maybe this calls for a ride to Vegas or Phoenix? I'll check into it.

Hey Rick, it would be very cool if you could come back to the old homeland for a visit?

I have an idea, maybe you could fly into Buffalo (pretty decent ticket prices that time of the year) and we could figure out how to get you up and back and I think we could supply you with a bike (a Vision of course).  Just an idea, but something to throw out to you for thought.  We're a full service Vision club up here you know!

Just maybe you could....

[Rick G]

Not that I wouldn't love to, but there are several strikes against it . First my dear wife depends on me, as she is disabled. Then there's the problem of money, plus my passport still has my picture taken in 1958 , skinny kid. I'm still a Canadian Citizen, so I assume I'll need a Canadian Passport. Nearest Cosulate is mayby, Pheonix or San Diego , more likley LA. I haven't been back since 1994  and it was 30 years before that.  Who knows , I might find a Brinks bag laying it the gutter or i might win the lottery. LOL :D

[Cdnlouie]

I completely understand, and we wanted you to know that you continue to be an honourary (Cdn. spelling) OnRov member with all the rights and privileges thereof.

Merry Christmas to you and your lovely wife! Please give her our regards.

As an alternative , I might have my self  nailed up in a crate and sent frieght truck . should be cheap enough and I won't need to worry about  a motel . I'm not sure  what the customs douments should read though.  ;D ;D
This is how the CROV guys ended up in Kingman in in "05 , they wanted to ride with me and I couldn't  get away , so they came here to ride with me . Say ,how about the OnRov  convoying down here!!! It will never happen ,but what a wonderful idea!!!!! :D ;) ;) ;)

In , maybe. :-\ I was hoping you guys from Toronto area would come to Americade. It's just 2 weeks after your ride. I can't usually take vacation times that close together. I always go to Americade. It's always the 1st week in June.  This year, June 2-7 , 2008. I am booking reservation by end of January. Right now I have 2 openings for the 4 bed cottage I usually get. If you have sleeping bags, more will fit.  The place I stay at is rather inexpensive because it's 8 miles out of town.

[Tiger]

 :) Sorry Jason, as much as I would love to try Americade, it won't be in 2008.
To much to do for the OnROV 2008 Spring Ride... 8) Gotta remember that there is only...
