This is an event in Toronto that the THPV guys are interested in and
they were wondering if anyone else was interested. Read the email for
details and let Vic know. And yes, I'm still working on the event list
and if I/we get word from Larry on which weekend he's free, we might be
able to have our first Wasaga Ride in the next 2 weeks.
