This weekend should be good weather wise.... anyone planning a ride for Saturday afternoon? I am in Mississauga Saturday morning but anytime after lunch I will be heading back to Burlington and could make a detour. Let me know who up for a ride on what looks to be a great day!

Of course Sunday morning is a possiblity too .... as Sunday afternoon I want to watch the MotoGP race.

Well, if you don't ask for what you want, you will never get it.

I may swing down the Waterloo Cambridge area when my lady is away on a weekend late May or early June. I may make some arrangements with you folks then.

cbar, Apr 8 2005, 12:31 PMAnother case of VFR flu.... :goofy:



Well, I am a gov worker and I don't really need to take a sick day off in order to go riding. I start work at 06:00 and leave at 2:00 P.M. (sometimes noon) and sometimes ride for a few hours before I have parenting/relationship/chores stuff to do.

However, I have about 2500+ hours of sick time accumulated and I am planning on retiring from the gov in about 2 years, so maybe I need to be sicker on sunny days B)

Shite M-crew, KKKKen,
Sorry we couldnt connect........Ended up going to the Orillia area with a bud who needed a hand. My arm is sore from waving so much, tons of bikes out. He showed me some awesome roads up that way, (Ridge rd Shanty Bay) i never knew existed. What a great day for a ride. Lots of time though for us all to get together for a nice little vfrd canadian group ride. Bring on the "FLAF" :beer: :thumbsup:

I think I saw you as you were turning right (north?) at the stop sign - you waived me to go - but I went straight and then went into the parking lot. I knew I shoulda booked a little quicker. MAybe next weekend we get a few guys together.
