 Erin is a beautiful area to live. I am in the small town of Ridgeville. It is the highest point in the Niagara Peninsula. Halfway between Lake Erie and Lake Ontario, twenty five minutes west of Niagara Falls. Five of us riders here are on FJ's! One 89, three 90's and a 92. No ambulances but things are known to change. Kind of like the snowball effect.

Hi John

What do I need for a ressurection? A higher paying job LOL.  Other than that, tires, fork seals, clutch master and slave rebuild kits, carb o-ring and screw kit (rpm)
seat redone, paint, clean inside of tank of 17 years varnish and rust etc. and so on.  It will get done. I'm just going to take my time.

Hi guys. Charlie the Questionable here. I've been laying low because the last year has been a real rough one for me. Even during the period before and after the great ride through the Kawarthas. No, I haven't forgotten to assemble the vid and photos from last summer but that's how far out of whack things have gone in my situation.
Anyway, a move is in the making and hopefully putting me back closer to the Hwy 9 - 404/400 area.
I met you all only that once and I sure look forward to getting back together this season.

So instead of some private messages, this is me collectively saying I'm still kicking.

.......... I have sent out PM's to all Ontario members and the response for a weekend get away was overwhelming......don't want to use the "R" word yet........but hypathetically speaking..... if we were to do a long weekend thing together somewhere here in Ontario......where do you think would be a great spot......personally I would love to find a spot near the water where we could do some fishing and swimming and water skiing......you know....after a nice ride..... .....I did some poking around today and found a few spots towards Calabogie\Renfrew area....it must be a location with lots of twisties...any and all suggestions are welcome.....we can work on a date next but lets see if we can find a cool spot first ...... Please include links...make your response in the Ontario BBQ thread....

 :hi: The idea for this thread is to get the Ontario members to get know each other...be it for rides, help with part(s), repair work, etc, etc :good2:

With the info we now have, I have started to 'plot' the Ontario FJ'ers locations on a map...We are pretty well spread out, which should make for some great weekend warrior rides eh!!!

If you want to put on a ride in your area, be it one day/two days, to show off some of your favourite roads, places to visit, etc, please start a thread in the 'Trip & Travel Reports'   section...or just PM the people you want to ride with :mail1:

Last weekend (long weekend), I was invited to ride with five other FJ'ers...two I had ridden with last year, one that I had met but not ridden with previously and two new-to-me great guys. We had a blast and now I have some great new riding buddies... :good2: This, in part, came about due to people who answered on this thread...so, thank you for the invite  :good:

Looking forward to the next 'meet 'n ride'...where ever and when ever that may be... :drinks:

Friday the 13th at Port Dover is a great place to go if you're looking for a demonstration on how NOT to ride a motorcycle. Lots of slow speed foot paddling going on, no clutch control or eye lead. It's really a treat! (not).
