Hey! For those in the SW Ontario area, who will be at the meet in Port Dover? I'm looking at checking my valves early tomorrow morning and heading out around 10. Who's going to be there?
 
Bikes were everywhere today, and I was stuck working (with a bike that isn't currently running.) Did you go? Were there lots of other vintage metrics there? Any at all, really?
 
did you end up going? What a wicked day. OPP says 140,000 bikes rolled through and it showed... Lines of bikes up and down every single street in town. Incredible scene, one huge bike and freak show, non brand/style/gang specific, it was great to see everyone just out to have a blast.
we rolled in to port around 11am

Wasn't able to make it. Checked my valves but neglected to check my battery. The bike had been sitting in the garage for 3 weeks and I realized, as I went to test out the newly adjusted valves, that she showed no signs of life. In protest, I put the battery on the trickle charger and went to house sit for some family up in Peterborough. They have a pool, hot tub, and some eye candy from across the fence. Let it be known that I wasn't sulking :p
