Everyone is always welcome on club rides. Heck, they let me come and often I was riding my sidecar!

Yeah, it was after I ate Angelo's left over pizza at that cafe we rode to. I let a big one and it got really awkward... Some of the scoots even became a bit sluggish because I clogged the intakes for a while. So after that I kinda felt weird... :lol:
But yeah, I'll set the alarm clock and try my best to be there. Have you guys come up with a definitive alternate route yet or what's going on with that?

Gill,
Look at the first page of this thread. There is instructions and even a map of where we are meeting with a time.

See you there

I hope everyone will forgive me (especially you Shannon :P). But I'm going to have to bring the suzuki tomorrow. I just got home and figured that it would be a good idea to check up on the scoot and make sure everything is running properly (as much as I hate to say it, I haven't been giving her the attention she deserves recently :( )
And as I feared I procrastinated to long and left the gunked up spark plug unswitched and uncleaned. That along with the temperature makes it damn near impossible to start.
And to top off this beautiful weekend for riding, I lent all my gear to a good friend of mine that is taking the Nait motorcycle course this weekend. So I'll be looking poorly (except for my brothers helmet, a shoei joust!).
So I'm wondering if I can come catch up and hang out a little tomorrow then leave my toy with one of you guys?
I refuse to sully the image of the club by riding along with you on the bike. :P
Does anyone think they'll have the space? It's not the biggest thing.

And there is no way you would fit in at all with the other 3500 motorcycles that are going to be there??? :? :?

I will probably have space if you are sure you don't want to do the ride. But you would be missing a really great event

Trevor

ps, Trudy won't be making it after all. Family commitments.

Haha, I thought we were taking a different route! I'd love to tag along, I'm just a little bummed about not being able to do it with my scoot. And my gear for that matter. :P

I guess I'll forgive you for not bringing your Derbi out :roll: , just as long as you come riding with us on the toy run. :D

Good to see you all today. I think that the Italian center shop Cafe could be a nice alternate for Sunday Latte's, mine was rather good. It's a nice long ride with not alot of traffic to deal with...

Shannon and Dan thanks for slowing up and hanging with the old guy and the old scooter on The whitemud. We should have stuck to our original plan and run our own route since our group again got swallowed up by the masses. I do dislike the stop and go that goes along with such a huge group of bikes.

All and all it was fun..

I hope all got home safe.....and I'm glad Trevor made it home after his excitement this morning....

Cheers
Angelo
