That actually looks like a pretty cool weekend. Plus Toronto in itself is always a fun place to visit.........Might have to make my way up to that.
Question though? Its not until next year that passports are needed if you are driving, right?. I know recently they require passports if you fly into Canada.

I'm planning on going, it looks like 6 hours or so from here, plus my buddy Downhill Mike will be working the Lake Placid/HPMA/Whiteface booth. Luckily for me, I already got a passport in '05 so I'm good to go...

I agree, at least meet up for a drink or something. Speaking of drinks, anyone that likes Vodka, Canada has something we don't have. You know the Mike Hard Lemonades, Smirnoff Ices, Etc. Here in the states its made with malt liquor. Up in Canada, they are made with Vodka..............We always come back with a couple cases............ Tasty

Got a favorite new product?
Those Canadians seem to have a stronger appreciation for bicycles than the US. Lots of urban trials riders.

Ryan's show was pretty cool, he's quite agile on a bike. Plus he's a regular guy, hung out and chatted often with us...
