Calling for rain, backup plans or go rain or shine?
Unfortunately at this point, we are 100% commited, So I guess it's rain or shine! I have been watching the radar and weather mapps and it is changing hourly right now. Keep your fingers crossed and think SUNNY! :happy3:
I was very happy to have taken part in the ride to Mark's house. Great turn out considering the rainy forecast.
Thank you to the organizers for pulling this together and considering the large turn out the ride was orderly.
I had to leave after Mark's house so I hope the rest of the ride was safe and enjoyable.
I hope that Mark felt the spirit of his fellow riders today!!
If somebody can post up some pics of the ride it would be appreciated - I would love to have some for my album.
Thank you Yamahachick! I will be looking forward to the pics!
It was nice to see you guys today!
I like your new bikes.

Please, If anyone has pics or video footage, can you get them to me, jt1@rogers.com so I can use them for the website. THANK YOU! to you all! I was speaking with Mark's mom this evening and appearently once he regained his composure and emotions, he hasn't stopped smiling! This was a great thing you all did! and a great turnout expecially considering the weather. I know many of you cut out early ,and understandably with the rain, but following the ride , we tried to get contacts and e-mails so that we can keep all up to date on the website and get ideas for next years ride. YES, I will be doing it again. It will be different, but we will do it again. Thanks to all the sport bike guys! I know there were a lot of cruisers there, including me, but we all love riding , so that is all that matters. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated! THANKS AGAIN! You are all great people and I for one will not forget your support. John Thompson (aka Johnny Da Bull):happy3:
AMAZING ride! AMAZING organization! AMAZING to have been able to be part of it! Johnny, thanks for letting us know about Mark's reaction!:happy3:
