I'd be in to that, as long as someone has a truck and trailer that could give me a ride back to michigan... My bike likes to go places, but can't seem to come home in one piece.

Hmmm... a National TMW rally for a web site based out of Calgary, seems to beg the question as to why not have it in Canada somewhere???? :roll: :laughing:

Ride it like you think owning it matters.

But certainly with out a doubt we can't have one where everyone can make it, but we can do like Zoo said - regional might be the first step and if we get enough response for the sub-national turn-outs, we'll maybe in two years try a central location to Canadians and American - like Zoo also mentioned - Sturgis maybe. Seem fitting for a motorcycle site (not during the Sturgis week obviously).

This is just to check the temp of eveyone, that is why I said "ideas even". I think I will construct an area poll, which will include some Canadian locations. Also, although overseas can't come here, they can also do the same thing - a local TMW gig.

well im in for a Canadian one, and pretty much game to go anywhere, although Victoria, or somewhere in BC would be nice for the scenic ride and all that, but would suck for anyone coming from out east.

I was thinking something like this.

Now my dots were just randomly place in places that it seemed would be central for the most amount of states. It can be modified as the results of any polls come in.

Montana might be close enough that some of our Canadien friends could come down if they are close enough.
A dog had his chain reduced one link at a time, every few days, until his chain was so short he could barely move. He never resisted because he was conditioned to the loss of his freedom slowly, over time. Are we in this country becoming like the dog?

Sorry but it's Canadian not Canadien, had to add that

I'll hit any Canadian location as long as Verm comes so I can race him.

:laughing:

Seriously though, if it was next year I'd go anywhere in BC or Alberta.
