Speaking of handoffs, Jason (Operator) will be the Eastern Canada lead off rider.  He is based close to Fredericton NB.  I don't recall if he can cross the border or not. 

Please work with Jason on a handoff location (date and time too when things firm up).  Also let Jason know if any New England riders will be continuing on into Canada!
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'd like to ride some of this. I'm game for anything in Connecticut, Rhode Island isn't far or MA border like Oxford area. Please,please,please. ;D

Danbury(Marcus Dairy) to Pomfret is a an afternoon ride. Pomfret ends at The Vanilla Bean cafe which is a bike ride destination, Rhode Island can pick up there or MA if R.I. isn't behaving.

I know I could get the CT Rockers to ride with me. It would be great!

The CT rocker guys are a good bunch of guys. I met a couple at the Bettencourt motorcycle auction last year I think.

It would be good if you could post a Google Map of your route when you have it all sorted. If we do this for each New England leg then riders can join when it suits them. Nearer the time post a date and time of leaving from the start of the route and this way riders can decide if they want to/are able to join in.
