I'm in Central Minnesota, which is decently close to most places in WI. But I'm quite a distance from Calgary. Anyone around Winnipeg willing to ride about 200 miles?


EDIT
I'm 365 miles from where Big B is in Watertown Wisconsin, and about 400 miles from Winnipeg Canada.

I added a map to the first post of the plan thus far. If you're near the path, want to break the path to add you or most importantly- add to the path then post here or pm me

Well, I'm willing to do to Saskatoon on some Sat (when I get one off) and head back to Edmonton on a Sunday. Following that, the next weekend I can head south or further west to meet up with someone. As stated before I'll do up to 400 miles (or more if absolutely necessary) in any direction from Edmonton. So hopefully that's a nice big round circle that a bunch of you guys fall into.

I'd prefer not to cross the American boarder though (no passport).
Of course I'm generalizing from a single example here, but everyone does that. At least I do.

I can take it back south at the end of June as I am going anyway.... I guess I'll just have to be sure that I ride a Honda for this trip.... :wink:

That begs the question, do we know anyone in winnipeg?

I also want to note that in my opinion, the usergroup is open to anyone who owns or appreciates Honda's.

Since I'm willing to let almost anyone in the forum as long as they care for the brand, I'm also willing to let them join the usergroup tour regardless of the bike they ride.

I'm not 100% sure I'll be able to take my magna (22 year old bike that's fun and wonderful, but tempermental). I may for instance take my Vstrom which is very unHonda. However, I will be the first to want to check out your bike and talk about Honda's, motorcycles and our love for things two wheeled.

Thank goodness I don't have to ride my Honda 250 all those miles. Its a great bike, but 12 hours of freeway gives me the shivers.

I'm an hour east of Winnipeg. Unfortunately my summer work schedule can be verrry tight. Depends on the weather...hot and dry (forest fires) I work long hours.

Willing to help if I can.
