    I'm open as for when. I as just about everyone I'm sure would prefer a weekend just to be clear on which day of the week.

    Wow around Niagara Falls; Isnt there snow on the ground their until about June. I
    think it would fun, but these older bones of mine dont do well in the cold . But now if
    it would be the warm time of year and I could convince my Wife it would be a good idea then I would sure like to give it a try.

    Hey Joe; Thanks for showing me the pictures from last years ride,Hum, I dont remember
    ever seeing so many VFR's with conventional spokes. And why do you guys remove the fairings from your bikes? Oh and if decide to ride your run,should I bring
    my metal studded tires? eddie

    Hey, It'll probably be best to go in June rather than may. The temperatures for May in Niagara average about 69. While the temp in June range around 72. July starts getting up to the 80's.

    How about June 12? Its mid june and is a Friday
    .
    Would yall want to go to the Canada side or the new york side? Keeping in mind that as of June 1st youll have to have a passport or other travel document to get back into the us.

    By the way, this is supervfr.

    Hi, Eddie! What are you talking about...(do not you worry about snow). May is gone be much better for riding (it's to hot in June). Either way - I'm in. Gone try to get few more guys from Toronto area (if you don't mind).

    I say have at least one in May and June and July and August and September and October and maybe November and April. In other words why not have one at least once a month? We can just set up a time and location and who ever comes, comes. Most of these rides never turn in to rides more then a couple miles anyways. Most of the time most that attend are just looking to kick tires and compare bikes. If the ones that show want to ride we can ride.
