At this point our wife's reckon we have plans that weekend, so there's half the battle! The other half is having a bike that runs.

h2dude and others from our midst have camped there many times. It would be good to connect with them on this plan. It's as good an idea as any others I've heard for this weekend. That said, I'll probably just ride down for the day on Saturday. Mrs. Drewski has never been to excited about me missing that weekend.

The Ban..I sent BikerDon some privy E mails that were sent by the then President..I won't rehash it here. he is now gone . Despite the rumours and stories ,this pres had no idea I was being included in the E mails..I called him out and the backlash caused a great CVMG Gal to be forced to resign. That's where bety An stepped in and suggested we have a Triple seminar which by the way...NO other seminar has had a packed house like we did. Thanks to Pipewelder who did an amazing job..Round of applause Please.
Ok today
Yes there some Triple guys that do camp on the grounds and some on the infield area. You can Pre register or pay a bit more at the gate on Friday if you plan on Camping.
Generally I try and get the same section for us every year and Bob shows up next to us or 2 camps away
Pretty tame at night but it is a sociable event irregardless .

I guess I wasn't privy to all that drama including the resignation of a president! All this time I thought we didn't go because we'd rather go riding instead! 😂 Anyway, it seems all the people involved have moved on so there shouldn't be any issues! What do they charge for the weekend to camp anyway? Is it a Friday to Sunday thing or can out of towners come earlier?

Hey Guys, being a CVMG member, I had been seriously considering making my way to Paris for the rally in June. Thought I might get a chance to hook up with a few of you hooligans while there.
Now that it's officially a triples rally I say let's smoke the place out!
Still not sure if I'd be riding down or hauling a bike but those are just details... It'd be great to ride and hang with you boys again. Still have the shakes after missing my Paris fix last year.
Cheers, N.

I don't know how you managed to start and continue to manage the CVMG Eastern Shield Ian but it's all good for the cause. Thanks for the compliments on the triples seminar. When we did that seminar in 2009 all the CVMG people I worked with to organize the whole thing were very helpful and positive specially Holly who made it all happen. They gave us the space in the grounds and Canadian Kawasaki even came through with some swag and the cutaway. Don made all the large format posters and it all worked out. The next year we had some conflicts that didn't really affect us because we had better things to do anyhow. It was CVMG's loss. It's all looking ahead from here. I was thinking we should consider doing a CVMG triples seminar at the VRRA - Mosport seeing as it's the big anniversary year. Plus the Mosport event is part of Ian's "Eastern Shield" events. You may see me camping at the CVMG Paris this year parked beside Shiloh's vintage replica camper. IAN: If we want to join the CVMG is there a way to join the "Eastern Shield" section? www.cvmg.ca/easternshield

IAN: If we want to join the CVMG is there a way to join the "Eastern Shield" section? www.cvmg.ca/easternshieldI should also point out ,Last year at Mosport Jim helped us out with the Judging..YEAAAA! sadly once again I will not be there Saturday due to the Belleville 1/2 Mile Flat Track races being on the 12th. our Section will host the concours once again at Mosport on the Saturday so come out and support the event . Jim..if you go to cvmg.ca and look for Membership. Click and a new page will open..$40 a year if you want digital or $52 for a hard copy..me..I take the hard copy as most do when clicking away you will see Sections you may want to join..click Eastern Shield..this also helps us with a small funding each year. Walms as Givr posted NO entry until 9am Friday if you have pre registered. We leave Thursday night and stay in Brantford then off to the Paris grounds early and hopefully we get our regular spot. If Bob ( Raat) is going again then maybe we could reserve sections as we arrive inside the grounds so no one else moves in
