Evan Posted September 1, 2010 #2 Posted September 1, 2010 Could have used some of your rain here in Ontario today Rick. Rode all day (south from Timmins) in record heat wave.
SilvrT Posted September 1, 2010 Author #3 Posted September 1, 2010 Could have used some of your rain here in Ontario today Rick. Rode all day (south from Timmins) in record heat wave. ya... the east is getting all the great weather lately. We've had a pretty nice summer here too but for the most part, the temps have been a bit cooler than normal. I just hope it isn't going to be crappy weather during our holidays Sep 4 - 20th as we are riding out to Sask and then down into the US on the return. Timmins ... wow... I was there a few times... when I was like 10 and 12 years old. We used to live north of Cochrane at a hydro project called Otter Rapids. When the damn was completed, we moved to Cochrane for a few months and then to Sudbury.

LOL ... like I woulda come... NOT! We tested out the trailer on Sunday on the freeway.... pulls nice and straight.. barely knew it was there. Got it about 2/3 loaded with our gear. We're chompin at the bit to hit the road Saturday morning!
LilBeaver Posted September 1, 2010 #6 Posted September 1, 2010 I know the feeling of those days getting closer and closer, watching the weather and hoping that everything holds out. I'll tell ya that I'm jealous and excited for you two. I hope your trip goes great, good weather, good roads, good riding, and good times visiting the folks you'll meet up with along the way! As for you getting the rain now... well, I'm glad it is happening NOW instead of during the month of JULY but maybe that is a little selfish of me... and have a great/safe trip!
