Larry, not following how you can do Collingwood to Dover to Buffalo by mid morning in one day?  PS Please keep me up to date on your route/time estimates in the off chance I can join you for a segment.  Brooze

According to Canada Post Tracking, GZ is being processed through Mississauga, ON near Toronto. That is about 4 hours from Larry and the last update I have at 8:30AM.

I've pm'd Tripps in Buffalo, cosmicvision in Ashtabula, Rio_CB750 in Cleveland and Mono in Toledo. I heard back from Mono and he is out this month, but I can get GZ to the Michigan border. I will try to check this thread every day. Anyone nearby feel free to pm me if I can be of help.

Slowly but surely. So are we thinking that the Michigan Adventure will start on the 21st?

O.K., I've put in for getting the afternoon of Friday the 20th off from work.  The boss said he would probably approve it.  If so, then I should be good to go after 9:00am.

O.K., sounds like we're comin' up with a plan! :)

We will meet at Archie's Restaurant at 10-11am and have a bite to eat before we take off.  It's easy to get to as it's right on M-15, just north of Davison Rd..  Do you think you can make it all the way up here by then Tripps?  I can give more detailed directions if anyone needs them.

Anybody else gonna join us?
So far we got :
Dave the Welder
and myself

Sorry you can't make it Kevin.  Do catch up with us tho!

Next step is where do we go from here?  I've heard that we are going to Tawas, but not where in Tawas.  Bruce?

I am confused, I am handing off to Ohio Sunday at the PA/OH line, LOL. Won't be able to get to MI this year, I'm afraid.

Great that you can get GZ to the Michigan border.  What day are you planning on getting the GZ to the border?  Send me a pm and I will get with Dave and see how soon we can make the handoff happen.

Watch the weather prior to making plans.

Ride safe.

My tracking shows him out for delivery by the Canada Post. #$%*, I figured $40+ dollars worth of shipping would've gotten him to you sooner. Sorry Larry.

Larry just emailed me & GZ has arrived.  He says he's heading out in an hour.
