How do we make it bigger? More advertising? More vendors?

We will asking other CVMG Sections to participate in this event. Right now it's just our Section trying to get the swapmeet & Show going.. More advertising ,yes for sure.Sadly if this event doe not get bigger and draw revenue CTMP will always bump this event for more profitable races like Nascar etc.

It was good to see some of the boyz (Jim, Brad) Friday and (Jim, Brad, Curtis, Rick, Raimo, Anthony and a host of others!) Saturday! Saturday afternoon, the wind and rain descended on us and I thought for a minute that we might get blown over to Tweed!! It was still fun though, even if I did have to ride nearly 2 hours to Mississauga in a downpour! Thanks for the rainsuit Jim. Superbike Weekend anyone? I'm going on Saturday.

Not for me - I skipped out on dad duty and house chores this weekend for bike stuff, even though I was giving out business cards and talking to a bunch of people and helping out my good friend Andy and Steve get the bikes ready for the 3 practice laps they got in before the sky opened up and got us soaked.
Still good fun though, always like seeing you hooligans

Another great VRRA weekend at CTMP is done. I had a great time judging the jap show bikes for the CVMG. Thank you Ian for that opportunity. The rain Saturday sure shut things down early but there was more vendors in the swap meet area and I would call it a success.
Sunday turned out to be a good day. Nice to see all the guys that Drewski mentioned above and on Sunday Lc was there with Leo. We had a nice talk with Henry Hange who still owns one of the original H2r's here in Canada. Givr and Raimo were back and the racing was on.
I got there late just as Dave went out on the H2r. He ran only one lap in the final when a carb problem caused one cylinder to quit. We watched Ricks F7 running full out driven by Derek many other great bikes we there along with several from the USA.
I'll try to get some pictures up soon.
Note: Track Day Dave was there and it looks like there may be more Cayuga lap days coming up soon.
