Yea, they didn't have cell service when they started until they got near my house in Colorado, so they might not get service in Canada.



Chit, I have hard enough of a time getting cell service in Canada. I talked to Neal 1/2 hour ago. He is in Niagara Falls but hasn't hooked up with Nige yet. THE MUFFMAN

Neal is trying to track them down. He rode over there from MA. I contacted Nige's buddies in the "Nige" thread, and sent them Emails as well, seeing if they've heard from them. Neal's at their hotel trying to find them now. I hope everything's OK with our Brit friends! :2vrolijk_21:

yes,  Neal called me about half hour ago,  Nige and group finally made it to the Falls. I talked to Nige for awhile and my wife and myself will be going up to meet them tomorrow.

Just to let you guys know i heard from Nige n Jan yesterday via txt message. they were in the Falls View hotel and everything was fine. 2 nights rest there before coming back to the UK. It was their wedding anniversary on the 4th (thursday) so i guess they were having a little R&R before coming home.......don't think they need to push the Spot navigation button any more........You can see the entirety of their trip from an earlier posting. 7500 miles of meeting buddies and riding the lands in 36 days........"Living the Dream " .......1000 photos and a bucket of memories can't wait for the write-up ! :bananarock:

Hi all - sitting in the lobby os the Sheraton Fallsview and catching up on all the kind messages.

Lost my ability to phone people as i left my phone in the B & B we stayed in at Marinette. Of course the phone has all the contact numbers in so I was snookered.

Anyway we made it safe and sound to Toronto and dropped the bikes off at the airport yesterday. Hired a car in Toronto and arrived down in Niagara Falls last night at about 7pm. Neal was sitting waiting for us when we arrrived and I couldn't believe it when I saw him there at the front of the Hotel. What an effort for him - 900 mile round trip from home to come and spend a few hours with us, thanks so much Neal we really appreciated it and it was great to see you again.

We have also arranged to meet Harleyteam (Dennis) tonight in the Lobby of our Hotel (THe Sheraton Fallsview) at pm for Brewskis and dinner. I'm not sure if anyone else can still make it ( Murphy, Jester Whisperer ??) but if so it would be great to see you.

We are off to do the Niagara tourist thing now and will finish off the day with a Jet Boat tour at 4pm (very wet I understand).

Back on the plane tomorrow night and we should be home on Sunday afternoon/evening.

What a trip it's been - 8,100 miles on the tripometer when I delivered the bike to the airport and about 7,750 of those were dry, sunny ones. A million memories of people and places and new friends we have met. Hundreds of pictures (a big posting job when I get home).

Roll on the 110th when we plan to do it all again with our friends Jon and Kim ( by the way they surprised us by organising a bottle of fizz and a message when we arrived here last night - love and thanks to you both, it was greatly appreciated).

So on with the next days adventure.

Later folks.

Nige & Jan

900 miles later i'm back where i started, cant say thanks enough to the many people that helped me get the info i needed yesterday to get to the correct hotel to find Nige and Jan. 5 pints of Rickards Red and a great night out with them was well worth the trip
