Maybe we could start thinking about a “Half way run :) “
Did you say chrome....I got my sun glasses ready 4 U.

Aw shut up Guy, it's snowing here!
Just joking my friend, snow has mostly stopped for the moment and so far not enough to plow. Question is do we plan a half way run before or after the National? June 13th will be on us pretty quickly.

I'm a bit ;) younger than you Norm, but I remember the only part of my dads' car that we were able to see was the antenna ::) We couldn't see the houses across the street

Denis you have that partially right. The riding season is from April till end of October, tell everyone else to phone and see if there happens to be a cancellation.

I was excited to have the bike running and actually ride around the neighborhood on the 1st day of spring. Today we are looking at sun and 60 degrees.

Spring may be here.

That's terrible, I guess I should cancel my honeymoon plans.
Seriously Steve funny how different the weather can be. We are what, 300 mile or so away here in Montreal and it is a beautiful sunny day. Just a bit above freezing, but with no wind and the strong sun it is really nice out.

Well spring may have sprung, but then it recoiled BACK and today we have white sh*t on the ground (not as much as some other places) and it's cold. Guess a relapse was in order after the announcement of a spring election here!!!!

So we can all blame it on the boys in Ottawa for our wintry conditions. ::)

Just what we need, a spring election!!!! ???

Maybe HELL froze over (that is what I heard on crooked.....say about another election any time soon).

Scott.
