saddlebum Posted December 29, 2018 Share #3 Posted December 29, 2018 (edited) What happened to the 22nd???? Why have the get-together if it doesn't include the 22nd? I'm having real troubles trying to understand this. the 22nd the 22nd the 22nd the 22nd I give up .....what could possibly be so special about the 22nd I got it that's when we all line up for ice cream before we go home Oh wait silly me Ice cream day is on Sat the 21st Nope any significance for the 22nd totally eludes me.

dogman Posted January 2, 2019 Share #7 Posted January 2, 2019 I've put a place holder in the calendar for the 2019 Ontario rally. July 18th to 21st. Location to be finalized Unbelievable Don. 3 years running, and I will miss this event again. We will be in Ireland during that time. I wish great weather and know the company will be great. Have fun everyone that attends, and those thinking about it should definitely make the decision to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XV1100SE Posted January 2, 2019 Author Share #8 Posted January 2, 2019 What happened to the 22nd????.... Something special about July 22nd ? Someone's birthday?

Other than that.....what is so significant about July 22nd ? 7/22/2019.....adds up 2048.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marcarl Posted January 3, 2019 Share #11 Posted January 3, 2019 Not sure yet where it will be this year, still trying to get Don and Carl together to figure this out. But we are looking to make this happen, maybe just a day later than posted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XV1100SE Posted January 3, 2019 Author Share #12 Posted January 3, 2019 No....won't be extended until July 22nd. Could be a separate party at Carl's on the Monday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcarl Posted January 4, 2019 Share #13 Posted January 4, 2019 No....won't be extended until July 22nd. Could be a separate party at Carl's on the Monday. Are you suggesting to party without me???? that could be a low blow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XV1100SE Posted January 4, 2019 Author Share #14 Posted January 4, 2019 Are you suggesting to party without me???? If you throw the party.....I'm sure someone will come. Anyone? That's why I suggested that the party is at your house on the Monday....following the rally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll plan local rides for the Friday and Saturday with a group breakfast on the Sunday. Provided there are no fire bans, we'll have a camp fire in the evenings. One other thing....for those that want to celebrate Carl's birthday on Monday July 22nd... you might want to stay an extra day.

XV1100SE Posted May 6, 2019 Author Share #24 Posted May 6, 2019 We had a total of 10 people signed up for it (with Carl and I accounting for 4 of those 10). With multiple "bumps", there hasn't been enough interest/sign-ups for it this year. I expressed my concerns to Carl and agreed to cancel it.

saddlebum Posted May 11, 2019 Share #25 Posted May 11, 2019 (edited) well that makes for a sad State of Affairs but I guess if you can't get the numbers then there's not much else you can do. Edited May 12, 2019 by saddlebum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
