So I’ve been thinking…
This has to be the most civilized Internet board I have seen and participate in. Also, the geographical dispersion of the people on this board, along with the perceived good-naturedness of most here is very interesting and has me thinking. (I must say I am also something of an idealist and dare I say, even naive at times...so just humor me) :rolleyes
Well here is what I have been thinking... Given that I am separated, I now live in a fairly sized house with my two kids half the time. I have a room in the basement that has its own bathroom...
See me coming?
Anyways, Montreal is a nice City and has lots to do in the summer. There’s F1 grand prix week-end, the largest Jazz festival in the world, a huge comedy fest, etc... There’s something to do every week-end in Montreal. Now, given my situation, I’m thinking that I wouldn’t mind (actually, I’d enjoy) having someone from this board (someone with a track record -500+ posts, demonstrated non-arseholeness from posts- a couple, maybe even three people) sleep-over for a day or two. They could leave the motorcycle(s) in the garage and take a taxi or public transit downtown, which is about 10 miles. So this is one-side of my proposition.
The other? Well, I am planning a three week trip this summer (on the Fizzer) with a riding buddy (he on a Kawa Z750S). We are still in the early stages of planning but it looks now that we will make our way to Chicago and continue on Route 66, visit the Grand Canyon area, go North to BC and back. :banana Trip is planned from July 10th to 30th.
Well though money is not a huge issue, I’m thinking that I’d would gladly accept the reciprocal. Not only would it be interesting to meet some of the people here along the way and it provide a nice diversion, the idea of spending three weeks with my buddy non-stop is spooking me... :lao
So waddaya think! Am I ready for the nut house? Without prejudice, anyone think they might be interested?
Note: I am not thinking quid pro quo here, meaning I am open to receiving someone who will not necessarily return the favor.
Comments welcome....
