The Ormstown Bike show and rally ride turned out to be a lot of fun !! Bigger better bang every year in the way of bikes for the rally ride.We had a real variety of bikes this year!! The most popular Triples 400,500,750 were here,and quite a few RD'S & RZ'S TZR'S 350,400 and 500 several TZR 250'S, and a rare Honda 250 two stroke.It was nice to see a Z1 900 and the new 2018 retro 900 included in the pack too, next to each other, a mix of the old and new.Thanks to Dave and Doug for coming from Ottawa and bringing their 73 H2 750 and the Z1 900 ! Glad we got a nice size group.It was a surprise,in that some folks that we expected didn't come, and others that we thought wouldn't come,were there.We also had some big four strokers and Harley Davidson's too.Thanks to Eric for hosting the beer and Pizza after party at his place, and along with offering to let anyone with out a bike drive one of the bikes from his collection.A good time was had by ALL.And like last year we are planning another fall ride out on the back road around Ormstown.

Keith, thanks for the invitation to join you and your friends for the day. It was great to finally meet you. Doug and I really enjoyed the ride on those nice roads and getting to know everyone during the day. Thanks also to Eric for hosting the post rally gathering. He has some awesome machines in his collection.

You were in our back yard !!! Wish you could have joined us !! Maybe next year ? BTW they are set up for trailers and camping at the vintage bike show.We are SURE next year will be bigger and better !! The event in Ormstown is actually three days long. We always go on Saturday for the main show. Yes Tremblant is really nice. We go there sometimes for the Tremblant Blues Festival. My brother's band has played there for the Festival.
