If any of you guy's want, you can ship the big/heavy things to my house so you don't need to carry as much. I can bring it in the trailer. Pack light ride hard. :shok:

Well I'm working till 8pm on Thursday so I can't leave till Friday AM.  I like to travel light too,  I bring a good size tank bag and get Bob & Paul to carry the rest in their givi bags... :lol:


I won't be off work until Thursday 5-6pm as well....

Yep... I think I will be travelling lighter too. I took too much last year.... I ended up losing a screw out of my wingrack!!!.... if someone would have told me I had a screw loose there wouldn't have been a problem!!! :biggrin:

Thanks for the offer Bob! :good2:


CanDman

Did someone say posse  (popcorn).......... I love the sound of that....Bob what an incredibly kind gesture........if I had more to bring, I would graciously accept your offer.......but I am only bringing a small gym bag.........filled with some marshmellows, Scotch Wiskey, and some real maple syrup.....I was thinking of treating the group to some pancakes and it would be sacreligious to cover them with anything but syrup which hails from the land of the Maple Leaf...........heck, I may bring a couple of Kilos of some Canadian back bacon too.........how's that sound???  :nyam1:
Kev
PS.......I think it would be good on the part of all of us "True North" to show our gracious hosts in the "Land of the Free" what classy guests we are and bring a token gesture of good will.......of course something uniquely Canadian....... :good2:

CanDman,

I am a fan of Jethro Tull but that is not where my name comes from... I'm in Kingston, if you want to ride down with us the Friday it will go like this...

You would hook up with Bob in Whitby on Thursday evening and drive to Kingston and stay the night at my place, Paul will also meet up with us Thursday night at my place.  From there the 4 of us would leave Kingston early in the AM for Maine, probably be picking up a couple more FJs state side on the way.  It will be a 10  hour ride from Kingston.

If you want to hold off till Friday and ride with us you are more than welcome to join the group.

Oh dear... you do like to live dangerously, don't you  :shok:

Let me know when you would be passing through Whitby. It's a two hour ride from here to Dan's place, so I'd prefer be on the road by 7ish.

I am not sure if everyone's on the same page.. :scratch_one-s_head:.......I think Dan mentioned being at his house some time on Thursday pm........with Paul....and we would spend the night there and then the 4 of us would leave Kingston in the  morning of the friday......If we're at Dan's at 9 am thursday, I am not sure what we can do for the whole day in Kingston....maybe shoot a round of golf?....which I would most cerainly enjoy !!! Although that would sort of clash with the idea of travelling light...lol. We could wait in front of a local watering hole til it opens and spend the day getting pie eyed....  :wacko2:......or....we could sneak into the local country club, hang out at the pool and tap on some bored rich milfy's and tell we like to ride "posse"....take em for a spin... :good:....hmmmm I guess I am not alone.....living dangerously that is......I like your style Bob........can I be Neilix   :blum1:..... :rofl2:

Sooooooooooo, Mr K, how long have you been out of the hospital, 1-2 days?  Or perhaps you're still IN the hospital.  Either way, you're back on the way to reclaiming your title of "The single most offensive individual I have experienced on the web."

It's my mate ED!
Hullo Ed!
I'm at home matey, it's beaut.
We should go crash that north east rally, I like the lobsters over there, we can rent a Harley each,go to a country club, wear Bermuda shorts and fedoras, hang out in a lounge bar.
See, we can do that as we are men of style and class.
