I am east in cottage country and to come to burlington will be a whole day thing for me. But I want to meet with the guys and go for cruise.

If the idea doesn't fly this time, I would like to organize a cottage country meet sometime maybe before July 1st when cottage traffic gets crazy. I have a perfect route, Highway 507 from Buckhorn to Goderham. Apparently it is the top rated motorcycle route in Ontario... 30+ kms of turns, very short straight aways and only on cop shop to worry about.

I'm with you Mike. Port Dalhousie is already a full day for me.

For the run the Port Dalhousie- Are you thinking highway run and partial surface roads? Or do you know I nice windy scenic route that follows the lake?

It's a good windy route near the lake that we usually take, great for photos and sprinted runs. We usually stop in port to grab a drink and a bite to eat at the end.

Yep, side roads all the way there and depending on time at the end and people's schedules, we may take the hwy back or continue on side roads.

Aaron, I'm glad you're coming as I'll need at least one other car who knows the route in case we get separated. It'll be pretty tough keeping this many cars together.

A reminder: if you have walkie talkies, please bring them.

Ouch that sucks! I think it's safe to say, we're done with the white stuff for this year *knock on wood*

Our temperatures keep going up and up, with more sun :)

It's going to be VERY close to see if my new Fenders and Wheels arrive in time for the meet.

This spring has turned into a gongshow for me and the Z so far...:shakes head:
