i maybe interested as well if everything goes as planned this week....
as for the route up to there, is the plan to take mostly the side roads or 400 highways, or a lil bit of both, don't post the route, just inquiring...

No highway as of yet, and I don't think there will be any but most roads are 80km/h
A garbage bag I just might bring one now
Bring 2 milk bags since they can be used to protect you socks/feet from getting wet

If Sat does not work out due to weather, ill do this run Sunday just for kicks if I don't end up going to the Guns, Guns, and girls ride.
If the weather stays the same as it is I for sure will do it Sunday instead of Saturday and my buddy with his 250 will be going, too. I'm not doing 800-1000 kms in the rain if I don't have to. Riding in the snow in Jan-Feb and in 4c in April with rain and heavy hail all the way from Montreal to Toronto put me off riding in bad weather needlessly while good weather is all around on other days.

I think we could get an old beat up motorcycle cover and cut some holes in them, might be better than a garbage bag!A garbage bag I just might bring one now
Just a suggestion for a lunch pit stop. some one recommended Webers on HWY 11 on the way to Algonquin

That's quite a ways off the route, plus that place gets packed on weekends and is really not that good IMO.
There are so many greasy spoons up in that area will be no problem finding a spot to eat.
I personally like the "mad musher" on the west side of the park. There is also a decent place in Dorset rite on the water.
Saturday looks like a washout.
Bancroft shows 90% 15-20mm rain.
yeah I am looking at that and is not getting any better, if Toronto gets rain Algonquin will get full showers for sure..
no fun.. lets see what tomorrow brings
Sunday looks like a better bet for me anyway, bike won't be ready until saturday morning
And I've never been to weber's, buddy at work said it was fantastic so I thought I would suggest it. I've never been out to algonquin so you'd probly know much better than me

I reaaaaaaaaaaaally hope this ride is still going to happen. Damn weather!! I haven't been up that far and wanted to go with a group that wouldn't be riding spirited.
