Title: Friday the 13th - Port Dover
Post by: donzo on August 04, 2010, 05:47:32 AM
The biggest rally in south eastern Canada.  We're trying to get a bunch of Monsters out for a ride down.  Since the DOCTOR local board is pretty inactive, I'm posting in the general discussion.  Who's in?

I may be in - I won't go if it rains (yeah, I know, call me wimp)

When do you plan on leaving?

I know that it will be impossible finding a place to stay

I know it is gonna be busy - Friday the 13th in August -happens every few years

yep yep, i went down last november 13th and it was crazy packed, next week it's gonna be one line of bikes strung all the way from hamilton and beyond.  i've got a couple of guys leaving from downtown toronto around 7am and hoping to meet some other riders in mississauga at 407 and mississauga road by 7:30 and on to dover from there.

It is harley heaven, but there's a good amount of other bikes out too. You gotta go out for Friday the 13th if you're riding a MONSTER!  Our growls are much meaner than straight pipe harleys.

ducatisti, i know a couple of monsters that are staying at the campground.  africaboy is Mark's handle on the DMF.  Hit him up for some 411

I heard the last one was crazy packed - despite the cold

IMO, 7:30 am is probably late - I was thinking to leave a little before dawn - like 5:30 am

Try to find a spot there - that may be near impossible

I may head over to my brother's first and then head over

I'll most likely be going with a couple of buddies.
I'm coming from the Ottawa area and will be there a little later in the afternoon.
Hope the weather is nice.

I have a cottage right off the beach and I still can't decide if I want to go. I've always enjoyed walking around and looking at the bikes, but the last few years have been so busy it's tough to actually see through the leather and denim. It's going to be a total gong show.

Hey Pitbull, is this a non-committal way of throwing out an invite?  LOL

C'mon, I know you wanna come out!  We gotta represent that sweet desmo sound over them straigt pipe harleys.

Where would you be leaving from?  Maybe we can meet along the way.

My cottage is tiny, but if it weren't for extended family filling it up everytime a friday the 13th, I certainly would hold a monster meet and bbq there.

I actually start day shifts on Friday, but may get someone to come in early for me. That would still make it late afternoon before I would make it down. If my GF comes along we'll ride the two monsters down, so keep me posted here where you guys will be parked and we'll try and find you.
