    Hi - Your route in sounds like the route I would prefer too. I'm riding down from Mississuaga/Meadowvale area, if you are interested in hooking up. Should mention though, I'm a cruiser rider (Kawasaki Nomad), in case that's an issue for you. Your midmorning travel time is perfect.
    Let me know!

    I'll meet you at the tims on weston and 401. I'm on a 250, so i won't be doing any spectacular speed runs on the way down. Hope you don't mind.
    You can never have enough fuel. Unless, of course, if you're on fire....

    I'm in and bringing the wife. Not two up--she has her own ride.

    See you at 9:30.
    Keep your rubber side down, shiny side up and your knees in the breeze.

    There's sumtn for evry 1.
    You either love it, or you hate it.
    I've been going for ~25 yrs.
    There will be more people per sq ft than you've seen in a while this Friday. Riders come from all across North America. It's our version of Daytona Bike week, or Sturgess, all crammed into one day. Hundreds of riders will always spend the weekend at this time of year.
    The burn out pit, which was a blast, was 'removed' years ago.

    Sounds like we'll have a good group going!

    All bikes welcome (even Harleys!)

    And travel speed, about 20 over, that's it, way too many cops around for much more than that.

    I'll try to post a link with the route, so we can have some meeting points in Mississauga and Hamilton.

    My route passes most of the traffic and merges @ the bridge. So only a short slow drive, the rest is fun!

    For someone that's never been, when does this thing die down? Earliest I can probably make it would be 8 PM, and I want to know if it's worth my while to even ride down for it.
