Figured I start a thread about the newest addition to the stable and her trip home. I'm picking her up in Charlotte, NC on Tuesday and riding her almost due North to Oakville, ON. I considered riding her all the way home right away, but my clavicle is still broken and the weather is starting to turn (snowed here yesterday 
.) So the plan is to tuck her in in Oakville for the winter and go get her in the spring. That way I can get some eastern riding in and hit CFR in Huntsville before taking her home. Since I would have been riding out to CFR anyway, this really actually saves me 2 trips across the praries :whew:.
I'll be flying into Charlotte in the early afternoon on Tuesday (16-Oct). After inspecting the bike and doing the paperwork, I'll be ready to roll. The current plan is to slab it to the CBP office in Niagara Falls before they close at 4:00 on Wednesday, but I'm open to some short detours and can push that out a day... or even 2 with enough coaxing.
Once I cross into Canada, I'll be headed to my brother's place in Oakville. Depending on when I cross the border, I'll have a day or 2 in Ontario before I fly home on Saturday night.
I'll have Canucklehead's SPOT with me (thanks mate!) so you can find me on Spotwalla (clicky!). (Note: I didn't name the page.
)
Here is a google map of the US portion of planned route:
If anyone along the way is interested in intercepting me or meeting up along the way, please feel free to do so. I'll try to check the thread regularily while I'm out there, but best to send me a txt msg (PM me if you don't have the number.)
Only 4 sleeps to go!
