Toronto meet up time again!
« on: June 12, 2019, 12:36:53 AM »
Ed and I figured another meetup is a bit overdue, so just floating a thread to see who's interested? If it's to be near Ed's, there's the old favourite of the Olde Yorke, OR, for something new, there's a pretty amazing barbecue place closer to Ed's workshop, Adamson's Barbecue (Adamson's used to close at either 2 pm, or "when the meat runs out", whichever came earlier. A bit awkward! But it's now open till the evening.)

Who's up for a get-together?

I'm in.  Got's to get a couple of K75S windscreens to Ed. 

How's about meeting in Port Colborne?  There's a restaurant there, Minor's, that serves fresh Lake Perch and Pickerel off their fishing boat that's tied up across the street.  Was recommended to me by the lock keepers on the canal.

So, what happened, guys ?
Did you meet at all ?
If no lets make another date, I didn't see you guys for a year.
I hope Ed's hand is completely cured ?

Good idea!  I have been busy this summer with work and landscaping the "manor house".  What's a good time?   I will arrange my schedule.

The week of July 5th is good for me because I'm on vacation that week.

Can we borrow your Wabac machine ...

BTW, I decided to put the '66 Twingle back on the road first. Brick is next.

RBM you mean August 05 ?
Ed, take a 66 Twingle if you are not going to be finished with Kbike.
The question is where do we meet ?

Of course. I try to keep it off highways though. It's just a 250cc, 2 stroke that's really a mosquito fogger/killer at speed.

BTW, Twingle is the engine, Twin(piston)-Single(cylinder). I call him Mr. Stinky (4% mix  :laughing4-giggles:).

Yes, August 5th not July 5th.  As you see, a vacation is sorely needed. Audit fatigue has set in; only beer cure it.
