Not sure if anyone here would be interested. So far there is 3 or 4 of us going.

 

Wow, that looks like a great trip and I am quite interested, but our annual canoe trip usually falls around that week. We are still in the planning stages but have firmlly decided on Temagami. We may go earlier this year however, because one of the guys is expecting their first child 2nd week of Sept. How soon would you need a commitment? Also do you guys tent it, or motel it?

We are probably going to motel it to cut down on the gear required. pack as many guys into a dirty slimeball motel as possible hahaha

Its gonna be a sick trip though. Last year I did a route through Nothern Ontario and it was a blast.

 

I'll get in touch with you closer to the sport bike rally through this forum.

 

So far there is 4 guys going for sure. Lemme know if anyone here wants to meet up and do this ride.

 

Who is going ?

 

You are Jeff. Myself, and Dejong so far that I know of.

 

I am very interested, I will talk to my boss and see if she is gonna not be a bitch and let me have the week off. I'm pretty sure if I ask now there will be no problem. Also gotta pick up a tank bag before then, but that will be no problem. What kind of bikes/riders(experience wise) are going so far?

 

Also, what kind of weather can we expect around lake superior at the end of august? snow? rain? I need to make sure I've got everything that is essential.

 

The weather will (should) be 20 - 30 degrees celcious. Maybe rain, just a rain suit or coat and you should be good.
