Only one?
What's Rob riding?

Besides it's possible I might be there which would make three. I can't commit 100% right now but apparently I'll be retired so things are definitely pointing in that direction. :cool:

Would anyone be interested in doing a return run via Manitoulin Island and the ferry?

Erik...Camper also brought up the Manitoulin Island/Ferry approach and as we get closer to the date we can hash that out but I think there will be takers.

Cool. I thought it would be nice for the return ride and would be a nice break.
Might even be nice to spend Friday afternoon/evening on the island and come the rest of the way back on Saturday.
Update: I am now booked.
