    I'll likely be available until the evening tomorrow, so if you've got a time/place in mind let me know.

    If you're bored, you could ride straight up Woodbine or Warden and head up to Jackson's Point or something. I turned back before reaching there, but it was one of the first "long" rides I did when I first got the bike, and all M1-friendly roads along the way. No twisties or anything really all that interesting though, until you get up to the lake area...

    Sadly, for all the riding I've done, I have never really gone out of my way to find any twisties or "scenic" areas.

    Possibly up for this, let us know when and where the ride will start and we will go from there.

    Any of you guys have Scala headsets by any chance? This would make communicating easier, other than just using the basic hand signals etc...

    If I wind up tagging along, I have a Scala G4 and GPS on the bike, will be able to assist with directions if need be.

    Kind of humorous - I believe at least 3 of us are riding new-gen blue Ninjas (2 2010's and an '09, I believe?) What are the others riding?

    Cool, so we have a little variety at least. Try not to leave us in the dust there though guys... :P

    How long have you been riding?

    Since mid-March myself, but other than with a buddy of mine, haven't done any kind of group riding yet.

    Re: Monday,September 6th - Newbie Ride

    Haha, nice. Did the course, or still waiting on that?

    So I'm good for whatever time, until around 6 or 7pm or so I believe. Just need to hear back from DiGr and figure out where/when we want to meet up.

    I'll be available by 10-11am. If anything, I'd suggest maybe we can meet up at the Agincourt Mall parking lot (Sheppard & Kennedy area) toward the No Frills section, as it's a fairly large lot and usually plenty of space open toward the Sheppard Ave end. I'm good for anytime/place though.

    Lol. Yeah, probably gonna wind up being the same here, come to think of it. But I'm aiming to be up by 10 either way... Hopefully we get things sorted out here by then.

    Well, I guess the rain is at the very least delaying things a bit here, but are you guys still planning on doing this ride? Any decision on time/place yet?

    Hopefully the rain clears up by then; weather network radar shows a fair amount of rain possibly headed this way.

    I'm probably going to hit the BK/Timmies at Birchmount & Ellesmere for something to eat beforehand; Timmies there is open unlike Agincourt Mall. Meet in the BK parking lot around 2?

    I'll be checking in here from my phone, but suggest PMing numbers so we can contact each other otherwise.
