I'm doing a head count to see how many are expected at the restaurant. If you are bringing a friend (or friends) that aren't voting please include them in your answer.
I got a few likes but no takers from the Ottawa Motorcycle Riders Facebook group.
I've heard nothing from other Ottawa Stromtroopers, but I have not sent them individualized private invitations.
The two people I indicated on your poll are myself and my brother Robert. Another, vTwinDino from St. Catherines, may be coming along as well if he shows up in Ottawa Saturday, as he is considering, but I will let him speak for himself.
Possibly the belief in Ottawa is that Spring is not really here and that a snowstorm is likely on the 29th. Living in a city where politics and winter dominate makes one wary.

NEW DATE: Bancroft, Ontario Meet and Greet **Sunday April 29, 2018**
The Road Toads Annual Bancroft Meet and Greet is Sunday April 29th this year.
We will meet at noon at the Bancroft Eatery & Brew Pub (used to be South Algonquin Eatery And Pub and before that Thomas Oliver's Pub.) The location is on the northwest side or Highway 28 and highway 62 in Bancroft.
Unless the weather is completely horrendous, then I'll be there.
Doesn't look like my nephew can't make it though, so I'll probably meet Tom & the others in Port Perry first.
Looking forward to it.
Might bring my real camera this time and try and get some action shots on the way up or back.
We'll see what happens.
unfortunatelly 3 of us are out too. since it seems like none of V Strom troopers is interested in keeping the tradition going and meet in Barrie next weekend I guess we will see some of you next month in Romney.
I am planning to attend. Leaving from Pakenham, through White Lake to Calabogie then on the Black Donald. Any Ottawa riders want to hook up for the run?
It looks like Sunday will be nice, sunny and somewhat warm <img src="http://www.stromtrooper.com/images/StromTrooper_2015/smilies/tango_face_smile.png" border="0" alt="" title="Smile" class="inlineimg" /> .... 8 degrees.
Not looking good, Bancroft minus 6 overnight with possibility of rain or flurries. High 4. I'd come anyway, but I'm off to France on the Tuesday, and don't want even a minor get-off to ruin my vacation. I'll finalize my choice Saturday evening.
I'm afraid I'm now out.
Not because of the weather, I'll be out in that anyway. They have asked me to work - so I'll still be out in the open and riding motorcycles, just not to Bancroft this time.
I don't expect anyone to come if they aren't comfortable with the conditions.
This weather sucks! Never seen an April this mixed up!
I'm going to get up in the morning and, unless my roads are snow covered, head over to the Timmies in Port Perry. Hope some of you show up and odds are my friend Bruce will be there. We will make a decision while there and assuming things don't look bad shortly after 9 am we will set off toward Bancroft.
If we encounter sketchy looking roads we would turn around and head back.
If you **are** heading out in the morning please post it on here or send me a PM (or email me if you have my email.)
..Tom
