Anyone planning on the MN show in Feb?
Salty to bad you aren't going on Saturday I would have picked you up. Do you realize it is about an 1hr drive from the Island Airport to the International Motorcycle Show. The wife is looking up to see if there is a subway close by, will let you know.Salty said:See you there. I should get there around 1100 / 1130 for the day, on the 6th, have to get back to Halifax on the same day.
Does anyone know the name of the subway station and bus # to get to the convention center, arriving Toronto Island via Porter at 1030.

I considered running out to the Toronto show but it is five hours drive each way. We had weather good enough to ride, but I wouldn't want to be on the 401 after dark in subzero temps, so if I rode I'd have to spend the night out there and my time at the show would be very short. Ten hours in the car, vs staying closer to home and getting a ride in daylight each day, and still getting a little moto show fix since we had a show here too? Decided to give Toronto a miss.Salty said:would have looked forward to meeting elizilla, but it was not known when or if she would be there.
You have ski's for your bike to. ::26::elizilla said:I considered running out to the Toronto show but it is five hours drive each way.

I might catch up with Liz at the Cleveland show, if I don't go skiing that weekend.
Welcome Salty. The wife was there all day Saturday I was there from 10 am until about 2 pm that’s when it started to get to busy. I missed Liz Jansen.Salty said:Thanks Limey and a thankyou to your wife for directions.
I made it to the International Center a little later than planed and spent almost five hours looking at as much as possiable.
Found trilliumliz at her both and we chatted for a short period as she was busy promoting her book which I intend to read. She is a very interesting lady, would have looked forward to meeting elizilla, but it was not known when or if she would be there.
Unfortunately I was unable to say hello to your Ms and left a message with her colleques.
Here's looking forward to meeting everyone.
