XV1100SE Posted August 17, 2011 Author #26 Posted August 17, 2011 Friday at Casablanca/QEW @ noon is still a go. Steve (The Count) wasn't feeling well yesterday or today so won't know until Thursday if he is a go or not. Carl will probably meet us in Fort Erie depending on timing. As a reminder... don't forget Passports !

chabicheka Posted August 19, 2011 #46 Posted August 19, 2011 you right Carl... he will probably be rolling in his bed when i get there. See you all soon. Getting ready to rock and roll soon. Abdul.
chabicheka Posted August 21, 2011 #47 Posted August 21, 2011 (edited) Had a beautiful day today. Started with a real surprise...Ben was all set and ready when i got to his place at the decided time. We rode to the meeting place (grimsby) where we met Marcarl(carl), Don and Nancy(XV1100SE), Bob Green (Greener) and our new member Andy (Darthandy)....was a real pleasure meeting you, Andy. Spent almost an hour there, snacking, gulping coffee, and exchanging lies. Andy being familiar with the area,cause he lives in Welland,led us through some back roads to Fort Erie, where we had a little break at the Tim Horton there, on hwy 3 and we bid farewell to Ben,Bob, and Don/Nancy, who headed on to the WNY Mini Rally. Hope all went well with their trip and hope all had a good time there. Carl,Andy and me decided to have lunch at the good old " GREEN ACRES" restaurant there, and we all headed back to our homes. Did hear loud thunder and the clouds were manacingly dark, but we avoided getting any rain all the way home. All in all, had a great day. Thanks all for your company and companionship. heres some pics i took during the day. Edited August 21, 2011 by chabicheka
darthandy Posted August 21, 2011 #48 Posted August 21, 2011 Nice pics Abdul, but shouldn't you have "photoshopped" the "Triumph" to read "Royal Star"? What will people think? And it was a real pleasure to meet some of the people I have so far only met online. They were even nicer in person! Just wish I could have joined in for the weekend. Oh well...maybe next time. Andy
chabicheka Posted August 21, 2011 #49 Posted August 21, 2011 Nice pics Abdul, but shouldn't you have "photoshopped" the "Triumph" to read "Royal Star"? What will people think? Andy What you talking about Andy?? . . . . . . . . . . not too shabby eh?
darthandy Posted August 21, 2011 #50 Posted August 21, 2011 What you talking about Andy?? . .. . . not too shabby eh? I was talking about the Triumph "rocker" on the back of the vest near the bottom. Say...is there supposed to be something between the two lines in your comments? All I see are dots ...a line of dots...and the voices !!! Those voices ... oh, wait! That's just my wife calling me. Enjoy the day ... and it was nice meeting you. Andy
