This ride sounds like fun. I'll try to make it for the west end meet.

[Ritchard]

I'm in for sure for the East End departure. Look for the flying pumpkin BMW.

Count me in. I can meet with the east end group. Time and place???

[BradsKat]

Do or do not. There is no try

weather is not looking good, 80% chance of rain. We'll update this tomorrow to let people know whats happening.

As of right now, even if everything goes well weatherwise, there are too many people for one group. When we hit the east end meet, we'll split into two groups based on experience and run in opposite directions. Have fun, ride safe.

Its never about being as fast as someone else, its about being faster than yourself last time. Don't ride beyond your imits, please.

unfortunately i can't make this ride, im having trouble with my gixxer, electrical issue. and rixxer is helping me put the stock sproket/chain back on.

if you guys are going, have a fun and safe ride.

Looking like a couple of showers is all. With luck they can be avoided.

By the way, how big a group is too big? What is the cut-off line? Just curious, as I have never been on a group ride before (but am quite willing to be coached in etiquette).

Having been bikeless for a long time, I guess I am going to be in the novice group, though I have had an M license for 30 years.

hey gareth,

i can help you lead a novice group because I'll be taking it easy. my trusty gps has never failed me before.

hope the weather clears really looking forward to this.

[Lunatic]

I'm going rain or shine, group or no group. I'd volunteer to lead or sweep for the beginner group but I'm not coming back to Toronto tomorrow.

The weather network is currently predicting that the showers will end between 7 and 8am tomorrow, hopefully that holds true.

[ZXGreenR]

Just checked the weather for all the major areas along the possible route we're taking... and OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHH weather looks good!!!! hopefully it'll stay that way!

[[evo]]

weathers looking better now, good stuff.

Thanks Davin, that'll help quite a bit. I'll PM you the route so you can punch it in to your GPS.

[mehsham]

Don't thin i'll be able to make in for this one.. got so much crap to do for work... You guys have fun and ride safe !

[wiredbeans]

Where is the meet for the east end? time and place, please confirm. I am calling in sick tomorrow and I know it will be worth it

[RM9]

I 'm going to hook up with the west group and I don't mind sweeping . . . .

[TorontoGSX]

Hoping to join you guys out on the ride tomorrow. I'll probably meet with the east end group. Is it still at woodbine and 16th?

[Ritchard]

So is the east end meet at 9am at woodbine/16th timmies?

This is where/when I intend to show up.

[regenmeister]

Looks like this will be a nice ride and I haven't been up that way this year yet so I'll try to make it out to the east end meet point.

[peanut butter]

+2 more experienced riders at east end meet.

Been at least a year since I've done the run to Maynooth but GPS is mounted up ready to go.
This weekend is free of plans & need to get a good long ride in before heading to Indianapolis next week.
