I'd Like to Add ALL the "UNOFFICIAL" Riders to the Master List
« Reply #300 on: July 10, 2011, 06:22:01 PM »
Gentlemen, Ladies, Riders, Team Leaders,

Somewhere along the line we have had numerous riders wanting to join in or actually join in the Relay without notifying me, the Grand Poobah, of such desire. I have requested numerous times that these participants please notify me with their information. I would like to make our master rider list as large and complete as possible. I promise I won't charge you an admission fee or participation fee other than the large smiles this Relay and Godzilla elicit from you. That is what this is all about!

Sooooo, with this in mind PLEASE send me a PM of your information or anyone you know that has not "registered" for this amazing event. The master rider list is located at http://forums.sohc4.net/index.php?topic=81240.0. Please take a look at it and let me know if you are NOT on this list! I'd like your name, city of residence and which Team you wish to participate with.

Thank you for you cooperation.

I just need to hear from Larecords when he will be heading to Algonquin Park.  The 16th for meeting up in Brechin would be best for me but it depends if Larecords can meet up then.

Hey Straw & Larecords

Hand off on Saturday afternoon is perfect for me.  I can meet up in Brechin or Gamebridge on #12. Don't know which road you plan to use coming west from 35, is it 45 or 48? I can also meet you on 48 at Kirkfield or even go over to 35 at Coboconk.

I don't know what your plans are so let me know what works for you, I'll PM you my cell #.  Are you guys coming down to overnite in Pickering before heading on wherever?

Cookindaddy & all other ON riders, I'll be heading up Brock Rd, Goodwood Rd & Lakeridge Rd thru Beaverton, so PM me if you want to meet up somewhere enroute.

Continuation onwards to Niagara will probably be later in the week, coordination with Wohali & Tripps is in progress.

My plan above can give us some time to "do" the hi-lites of downtown TO on Sun the 17th (or Mon, Tues too), any interest or ideas?

If all goes well I will now be meeting up with Larecords in Algonquin saturday afternoon.  From there I/we will be heading down 35 thru to Brechin.  Meeting up in Kirkfield or Coboconk would also be a great option but that is up to you.  I wont be heading south to stay the night because of prior comitments.

Straw, Kirkfield or Coboconk it is!  So far I'm the only SOHCer meeting you (hopefully with a couple of non Hondas as outriders/GZ security, haha.)  Larecords, did you decide how far you're going?

Wohali & I will probably head out to NF Wed or Thurs from Pickering to meet Tripps.  She's having bike trouble & lost 5th, so we'll take it easy on the side roads thru TO to Niagara.  (I hate the superslabs anyways).

Now I have an appeal to all ON riders here!  Time to step up for the ride!  Tripps is taking GZ from NF to MI, so far alone.  No offence to him, in fact kudos for his efforts, but do we ON guys want just a Yank by himself taking GZ thru our province?

Consider the gauntlet tossed >:( >:(  Come on down, riders ;D ;D

Brooze72,
when do you think Godzilla will be in Toronto?

I can meet up with the SOHC riders and do a tour around Toronto. I could also ride at least part of the way to Niagara Falls.

Hi David

We'll have the little lizard in hand by Saturday evening, if all goes to plan.  That gives us Sun, Mon, Tues? to do some TO touring & hit the sights.  Any ideas or places you would like to do?  I'll PM you my cell # &/or post your thoughts.

PS I have one daughter working at a bar directly accross from the Skydome (sorry, Rogers Centre, grrr, I still hate saying that) & the CN Tower.  Could make a good photo op on the patio.  Bikes in front, large structures, us & pints in the background?  Just saying...

Could have been a U2 concert or maybe just a typical Montreal celebration when a celebrity hits town!  GO GZ!!

Nice but that hurts. U2 rescheduled their Denver show from last year to my daughter's 14th birthday in May. I understand I HAD awesome seats.

Hi Guys!  I've been sitting on the sidelines watching the plans and hoping that I might be able to join part of the route going by me.  Since I don't venture too far on my 350F, I was pleased to see that maybe GZ would be going close by down Lakeridge or hwy12.  I know the route to Breckin and could probably make that way if you have a time when GZ might arrive that way or nearby on #12.  If it looks doable for me and the 350 (probably more my butt than the 350 ::)), I'll add my name to the list.

Brooze,
Sunday looks good for the Toronto tour. The weather is supposed to be perfect.

I live downtown and the rooftop pool/bar at my condo has great views of the city.

I will PM you my cell number.

I'm in for the Toronto Sunday ridin', and if folks want I can hang onto GZ at my place downtown to prep for the trip to Niagara Falls later int he week. Currently it's looking like Wed, Thu or Fri, more likely Thu or Fri.

I wonder if it's worth shelling out whatever they want to charge to get a shot of GZ outside at the top of the CN Tower on one of those Extreme Tour things.  ;D

I don't know if the extreme tour thing is running yet, personally you wouldn't get me out there on ther tower lip even with a harness on.  My extreme tour limits are downtown traffic 8) 8), that's enough for me!  I like the idea of taking GZ up the tower tho, would be his highest spot in Canada so far.  Sounds like we want to do a downtown tour this Sunday, so far Wohali, David 750F, me &??, right?  Any more riders, other locations to hit?

PS update: just had a phone coversation with Larecords & he sounds stressed, bike's not running.  He's working on some alternative transport, I told him to call Strawhhouse, we'll see if we have to make changes to route or date, stay tuned...

Let us know the route/location of your meet-up on Saturday.  Are you going to turn north to Brechin or start south on #12 towards Beaverton on the way to TO?
I'd like to know the approximate time and a location so I can meet up with the lizard and carry on down a ways to TO. 
I'm going to be away the next few days but am returning this Friday, so post some details and set a place and location please.
