just incase we lose Guy. You need to know the story though. We are headed for the National, sly, caper, and me leave Montreal and will cross into the US via the Cornwall bridge. Guy says meet me at the Sunoco just off the highway at Cornwall, you can 't miss it it's huge. Well we go flying by a huge petrocanada gas station and Tim hortons coffee shop with sly in the lead followed by caper and then me. Just as I pass I catch out the corner of my eye somebody waving his arms like crazy way back in the parking lot. The others are long gone and I am about to keep going just assuming this dude is just happy on Tim's coffee. Then I spot what looks like the distinctive shape of a nomad saddle bag on the bike near him, so I stop turn around and go back. The others come back after a few minutes. Guy says something like I thought you forgot me and We all look up at the huge petrocanada sign, nope that doesn't spell Sunoco! Apparently at one time it was a Sunoco before. Probably in1975 right guy?

Map below showing all Sunoco stations in NH. Looks like there are a few where we will be riding. We can set them up as meeting places if anyone gets lost. nh_sunoco.jpg

I did hand out stickers the next time we all got together.
So much for: "What happens on a road trip, stays at the road trip!" Hey, as long as we are having fun, LOL Cheers :)

I'm riding up with id-man and told him he could have the second bed in the room. I haven't heard back from him yet. He's still planning.
