My goal is to make it to your next Party and I'll get there on my own Vision.  I met up with NightVison and Joevac near Rochester and rode with them to lunch in Niagara Falls.  Following those 2 XZs, listening to the bikes' unique exhaust music, was incentive enough to get 'er done! Party on!

[Night Vision]

as always, I had another superb ride with the OnRovers.... of course it wouldn't have been complete without the obligatory moisture, but Joe took it easy on me this time and we only had brrrrrrrizzzle  :P for about an hour after we crossed over.

Brrrrrrrrrrizzzzzzle is: when you go from a glorious 76 deg. day of riding with friends  8)

to riding through a 50 deg. cloud knowing the place you're going to has a work week waiting for you :P

I'd like to thank John and Cathy for being the ideal hosts as always.... but I think after all these rides, they are actually starting to like having the Two Yanks come up.... they even flew a little American Flag in our honor  :D :D :D 

I'd especially like to thank Tiger for distracting us today, and clouding our judgement with enough distillates the previous night, that we actually believed "today will be just like yesterday"   bloody cheeky of 'ya mate!  :D

pics of the bikes, folks, and special guests who took part, will follow as soon as all the pixels are gathered  

[fiddlesticks]

Thanks to Tiger and Cathy for your amazing hospitality.  I think we all had a wonderful ride, and it was great seeing everyone again. I'll be sending you my pictures, but I can't figure out how to get them on here. lol. By the way , the Virago says to tell you thanks for the mirrors. She feels very pretty now with all that shiny chrome.  ;)

[Dibble]

Thanks soooo much Tiger and Cathy. You guys rock. Dibble Sr. and I had an amazing time, and are already looking forward to the spring ride!!! Wait till y'all see "Night Terror" next year, I picked up some great ideas during the ride...... Here are some of the PICS that Dibble Sr. took on Saturday.

[joevacc]

Wow!

These rides get better each time!

Tiger you and your wife are a class act and I will always have the greatest admiration for you both.

NV you and your wife have taken me into your home many times now and have always made me feel welcome and comfortable - with always a "stay any time" as I go...  Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!!!

Great friends, great ride, great food, great drink... 

I can't think of any better way to go through life!  What else can I say?

Looking forward to the next one already.

P.S. A special shout out to Jack, Dexter and Wilbur!
