Wizard765 Posted September 13, 2009 #1 Posted September 13, 2009 Let's assume for the moment that the weather is going to co-operate. That being the case we are intending to ride. Leaving Caledonia at 9:00AM and having a leisurely ride along the Grand River followed by some more kinda slow and lazy roads following Lake Erie shoreline where we will get to see a cool optical illusion then off to Ft Erie and follow the Niagara river to Niagara on the Lake. Then back to Caledonia through Caister etc.... The Count (Steve and Michele) are coming along with Robin and I. All are welcome to join us. We should be back by dinner time but I'm not gonna PROMISE that.... It IS going to be a relaxing ride with some stops. Wayne
bongobobny Posted September 14, 2009 #4 Posted September 14, 2009 Maybe, but need to check schedule...
Evan Posted September 14, 2009 #5 Posted September 14, 2009 Wayne - If we are not at the cottage working on what needs to be done (like shingling a roof), Anne and I will do our best to join you. Hope you have a great day in any event.
dogman Posted September 14, 2009 #6 Posted September 14, 2009 Wayne, I'd love to ride with you guys again, but I'm still waiting to get my flat front tire fixed. It doesn't look like the mechanic will be comming over to taking it off until Wednesday or Thursday and then not returning until next week to reinstall it. If it is sooner I will post and attend.
thecount Posted September 14, 2009 #7 Posted September 14, 2009 Wayne, As we discussed, we are in. Only hold back will be weather and should know what that is like on Friday's forecast. Thanks for posting this, We are looking forward to the Niagara tour. Steve/Michele
Wizard765 Posted September 14, 2009 Author #8 Posted September 14, 2009 This is shaping up to be a GREAT day!! Looking forward to hanging out with you guys n gals and getting in some good riding with an ice cream stop or two. Hey BIG TOM.. when are you gonna get your passport?? So far the long term forcast is looking good too... Wayne

Dogman: Is this "Mechanic" doing it for free? That seems like a long time to wait to get a tire fixed. Why not remove the front wheel yourself and take it in to a local shop to get fixed? Did you want some help with that? Wayne
dogman Posted September 14, 2009 #10 Posted September 14, 2009 Yes Wayne the Mechanic is doing it for free, the cost is of course the time delay. If I knew how to take the tire off that would be quicker, but I don't and the way I generally do things for the first time are always the wrong way, so I figured I had better not attempt it.
BIG TOM Posted September 15, 2009 #11 Posted September 15, 2009 This is shaping up to be a GREAT day!!

So far the long term forcast is looking good too... Wayne I'm afraid with all the trouble I've caused on this side of the border, if I leave now they won't let me back in....then I'd have to learn to say (AEE) instead of (YOUS GUYS)..:sign20:
sleepy2 Posted September 15, 2009 #12 Posted September 15, 2009 Would love to go BUT we have a BIG union contract CONCESSION vote that day Is there still a Tuesday ride planned????? I work days this week and get off at 1:30 and home by 4:30.
Wizard765 Posted September 15, 2009 Author #13 Posted September 15, 2009 It's too bad you are gonna miss Sunday... but I'm up for a ride tonight. Not sure about Carl because I THINK he has some sort of meeting or something.... I'm gonna check with him to be sure... What time can you get away?? Anyone else want to come along? Wayne
Evan Posted September 15, 2009 #14 Posted September 15, 2009 Wayne - Would love to ride tonight but just can't get away.
Guest Swifty Posted September 15, 2009 #15 Posted September 15, 2009 sounds like a great idea...I'm tentative on going...and non-commital as usual!
sleepy2 Posted September 15, 2009 #16 Posted September 15, 2009 SORRY just found out we have to look at a car for my son in Stratford because he can't until the week-end,so I guess a ride is off tonight.

Wizard765 Posted September 17, 2009 Author #22 Posted September 17, 2009 Hey Abdul: I hope the wedding goes as planned with no setbacks. We will catch up to you on the next one... Wayne

Boberoonie: We will be passing right by the peace bridge but nailing down the time is difficult. If I had to guess I'd say somewhere between noon and one. There is a Tim Horton's on #3 Hwy in Fort Erie just before the end where you would turn to go to the bridge. That is where we could meet. It would be AWSOME to see you...

dogman Posted September 19, 2009 #25 Posted September 19, 2009 Wayne, my bike is fixed and I'm back on the road. I see from your first thread that you are leaving at 9am. Could you give me your address to punch into my GPS so I can get there without stopping and using a map? And besides, I don't have a map that will help me around Caladonia. How long should it take for me to get to your house from Toronto? Thanks Dave
