So that's 14PC total for the price of 10PC....OK, I'm in for a southern tour. I don't think we can get that kind of deal up here in the north. Someone will have to buy me the extra 4PC if I were heading north. I'm also in for the trailer. I find it hard to eat fried chicken on the bike. The throttle gets a little slick and hard to twist.

Thumbs up

Sprock it is just as far from my house to key west as it is to your house to mine. If no one wants to go to key west this year I may try to run with you. Hope you pick a warm month to go up there. Anyway it will finally give me a chance to get my passport stamped. I have always traveled on the governments dime, never had a chance to get mine stamped any where. Anyway just to be able to take my 'Cane on a boat would be way cool.

Sorry no room on my trailer mf-er(s) lol

JK Forsure Indy .....be a good laugh, more than welcome if your southern
soiree does not pan out .....no two ways about it I'm doing this.

Maybe the "Flying Cupcake" might be up for the trip too ?? Eh Jim ??!!!

We'll have to time a Motorcycle Fun challenge for the Ferry to Halifax

Now Malbo, no need to be so envious of my totally custom
award winning super stealthy awesome luggage rack

Malbo I figure around Memorial Day ....most of the freeze bumps will have
gone down. Last time I stayed at the campground by the river in Jackman
Town..... was great

It's great up there ........and yeah moose are a real issue in the twilight
hours

Trout , you know you need to do this trip, think of the potential
photo op's with Indy

Tim we'll just keep feeding ya plenty of freedom fries ....lol

.........Okay Carl , just call me a dumbass for forgetting !


Forsure I'd look you up man , how about a bunch of rowdy bikers
camping in your back yard ?

EDIT :

Update seem the Gov't of Nova Scotia withdrew subsidies for the CAT
to Bar Harbor ....so right now ....no ferry service

BUT

2 new proposals are being reviewed , so chance are there'll be service by then
or alternatively take the ferry from Digby to Yarmouth or just ride up an
around eh

We could just stay over and blow up your backyard Sprock!? After all you're the closest thing to family that Indy has. Send an invite to Sparkie for the Fam-Damly Reunion too.

Naw, that'l be a good week to get together. I'll have to have a look at a good route to get up to your neck of the woods. Wadda ya say Indy, You In?
