I've had mail & replied to it; sorry it took a while I've been away at work all week. R, you got mail. so don't say nobody loves ya.  | ||
| Lake_bueller |
Spoke to Innes on Saturday (as I was laying on my death bed, damn...I hate being sick). Sounds like we have a decent plan for bikes and a chase vehicle. Now if the weather would finally break  | ||
| Pale_rider |
OK Guys! I have everything packed and ready to go! Any day now right...... Pale | ||
| Lake_bueller |
Pale....what happened to you yesterday??? Give me a shout. My rearsets should be on my door step today when I get home. I may even be able to find a Fat Tire for ya. | ||
| Pale_rider |
Cmon can I see some friggin Buellers in here? I may be new but nobody is around? We know it gets cold but you will be here come spring.......... Dont slack on me now! Just a HI! Or a hey! Motivate somebody... See you soon! Pale | ||
| Mr_grumpy |
See you in May Pale, It's a pleasant 12-14°C here today & they're even forecasting sun for tomorrow, now let's see, boots, gloves, helmet, neck tube, fatsuit, I'm just popping out for a while darling............. | ||
| Mr_grumpy |
Question time, do I need to register for homecoming? what do I get for it? is it worth it? | ||
| Lake_bueller |
Newfie....you have a PM (my second attempt). It may end up in your junk mail (mine does). Dennis | ||
| Pale_rider |
Ok now its warming up a little bit I think! I saw the sun!  Pale | ||
| Mikej |
Grumpy, If you're going to the races on Saturday and on Sunday then register. If you want to eat dinner with everyone else then register. If you just want to hang out in the parking lot and local bars and restaurants in the evenings and afternoons then it's your option. If you're from out of town then register. You're in France, so if you're coming then just register, life will be simpler, or simplerer  . Pale, that wasn't the sun, one of the salt trucks just left their headlights on.  | ||
| Pale_rider |
Awww man! Just when I thought. Bah!  Mikej man u just had to wake me up!} Mirage I guess. Oh well. Pale | ||

Anyone - split a room/cabin? (Please note - Grndskpr & Mr_grumpy are still alive and don't walk too funny)   Oz | ||
| Oz666 |
BTW, I should be able to chip the "lock" (6-9" of ice) off the bottom of the garage door soon... Has anyone heard if Crusty has tunneled out yet (his area got almost 3/4 of the average snow we get here, he must be going insane! ) Oz | ||
| Lake_bueller |
Oz...I think you make #8 if we bunk up. If the archives are correct, the current housing list is: 1) Myself 2) Mark (Palerider) 3) Roger (Grndskpr) 4) John (Bomber) 5) Innes (Mr Grumpy) 6) Bill (Newfie) 7) Alex (Awprior) 8) Oz666 That takes care of all the beds/futons/couches. We should still have some floor space available for any others. Oh yeah...can't bet the price of $15.63/person/night  | ||
| Pale_rider |
Hey Lake Have you put any coin down yet? Can't remember if we really discussed that. And if you have I can settle up so you aren't holdin the bag.  Pale | ||
| Oz666 |
Thanx Lake, Need Mooooola?  and... What's the date range? (also what Pale_rider said...) Oz | ||
| Oz666 |
Geeeeez it's (almost) the whole Newfounlamd Invasion Force! Oz | ||

I paid a deposit of the first night's rate plus tax. The rest is due upon arrival. We can figure that out later. The date of arrival in Fontana Dam is Sunday, May 29. We're leaving Chicago on Saturday. I beleive we have to be out on Wednesday. Depending on when we leave, we could be back in time for lunch on Thursday at the factory. Looking forward to some good riding. We're expecting another 2-4 inches of the white stuff by the end of tomorrow!!! But there is light at the end of the tunnel. 10 day forecast calls for low to mid 40's next week (while I'm on vacation). Later, Mennis | ||

Boys, Looks like I may not be going!!!!! Please don't plan on me - If I go it will be last minute and I'll play it by ear!!!!! DaMMIT | ||
| Oz666 |
Newfie, This doesn't have anything to do with the "moose", does it??? Seriously, I hope you can make it happen, let me know if I can help... Oz | ||

Well, Just to give a bit of history on last years adventures. As many of you know I am an instructor with the bike training program up this way. The past two summers I have spent on the average of over 400hrs each year with that organization. Seeing that our summers are so short and the kids are only off for three months this summer my focus will be the boys and you that were here last summer met those guys. We all have new to us bikes from a Honda Mini-Moto, Honda Z50, Kawasaki KLX110 and the Yamaha BW80, throw the DR650 into the equation and we are going to take the 400plus hrs and ride. Next Summer I will be ready to roll once again. Now if anyone wants to come up this way I certainly will have time for a few adventures. | ||
| Grndskpr |
Thats to bad Bill, wish you could have made it, but family realy does and should come first, please remember if you do decide to come, we could always make space for you Have fun with the boys from what i understand there only young once R | ||

Here is one of the bikes, Roger, you remember Connor.  I actually want to get him riding and get him conditioned to go a couple hundred kilometers a weekend later in the summer. As you know Newfoundland no longer has any Railways and the old Rail Bed is utilized for ATV, Dirt Bike and Ski Doo Trails. You can go from one end of the island to the other offroad. | ||
| Whatever |
What are you feeding that kid??? COD ???? He has gotten huge...  | ||
| Newfie_buell |
He is only 9 yrs old, roughly 120lbs and about the same weight as his older sibling. His cousin who is the same age asked why he was a giant!!!! | ||
| Pale_rider |
