Why not?  I'll fix that for you when we meetup for the handoff to Larry, it was a little busy at Mosport  ;).  Speaking of the next GZ Lefty hand off, Larry, Tintop & I are thinking about a meet up with you in Perth on Sunday Sept 2, know any good spots in that town?

Great!!  I'll ask about places to meet in Perth when I get back to Kingston later this week.

I will look at my Saturday schedule, there is a slim chance I could possibly make Kingston in the mid morning, let you know in awhile.  Got anything set up for the next leg? Is bowswell in MTL still participating or are you heading directly stateside to where?

I guess it is up to Larecords to say if he is going thru Montreal  and when, bowswell, send him a PM to ask.  Peut être nous allons rencontrer la prochaine fois, salut.

There are prolly some riders in New England and Mid Atlantic that could join ya too Larry. Please keep those guys up to date on ur plans ;D
Can I have a motorcycle when I get old enough?
If you take care of it.
What do you have to do?
Lot’s of things. You’ve been watching me.
Will you show me all of them?
Sure.
Is it hard?
Not if you have the right attitudes. It’s having the right attitudes that’s hard.

I can do either this Saturday, or Sunday the 2nd, just need to know ASAP so I can make plans.  Is the plan still to meet in Perth??  If so where??  Timmy's on Hwy 7 would probably be the easiest for all to find.   - Brian/tintop

That's great guys, Brian sounds like a good spot, whadda ya think Larry?  Tim's in Perth on Sunday the 2nd, at 11, 12 or 1 oclock? or what time?  Larry & Brian I'll PM you my cell #.  Brian I will be on Old Perth Rd (Division st) about 20 minutes north of the highway & will call you with exact location to meet then, off to Perth to hook up with Larry.  Guestimate to Perth from my location is about an hour 10, but those are nice riding roads...  ;) ;), could be less.  Plan is coming together  ;D

Are you staying south of Westport.  If so we can go up to Westport, then across #36 to #7.  #36 is a great road, lots of ups/downs, and turns.  One of my favourites in the area. ;D ;D ;D

I'll PM a number you can reach me @.

So I have PMed Larry & Brian.  Sunday is the planned hand off day for Lefty who has been cooling his heels by the pool this weekend, oh must be the girls keeping his attention.   ;)
I will be heading up to Buck Lake area north of Kingston on Saturday, that's above Inverary & south of Wesport.  Looking forward to riding those roads again, Tintop your route sounds fine thru Westport.  Sunday is the hand off in Perth, what's a good time for you Larry?  Brian, I'll call you this week to explain my location on Buck Lake when Larry gives us a time.  PS I have found cell service up that way to be pretty crappy.

Had a great time meeting up with Bruce & Larry for the GZ hand off.  The ride up & back from Buck Lake to Perth was lots of fun.  Couple of photos....

The rides..Interceptor, Ducati, Ninga 650, couple of V Stars, and Larry's 550/4


GZ on his next SOHC ride with Larry.
