    I guess put me in the maybe but probably not category. Don't know if I'll be able to get away that day. Only been to the Bean once and that was probably 15 years ago. Besides I'm a shitty rider and don't get along with anyone so there's that. Might be on a Yamaha or a Harley. Hell maybe my bicycle. So definitely a maybe.

    I may end up having my FIL lead, he lives in Thompson and knows *EVERY* road in that corner of the world. He rides a Royal Star S so you wouldn't be out of place on the Harley. You also wouldn't be out of place on the MT-07.

    For sure dude, post-ride burgers would be a treat.

    If you want slamming burgers I'd go to the airline grill.

    Right down the road from the bean.

    I love the burgers at the Bean but I’ve never had Airline.

    Route change! Breakfast at the Bean, lunch at Airline!

    If I can get my new tires on the day before (by @csmutty) I'll be IN!

    If he needs to do it on that day, I'll miss it but could try to swing by in my car with my motorcycle's wheels in the trunk.

    Re: Vanilla Bean Fathers Day Ride

    Guys I’m sorry but I have to bail. I have my mid pipe out for vapor blasting and was supposed to get it back “definitely”this week. Still don’t have it so I’m not going to be able to pull it together in time.

    My FIL is still willing to lead a ride, he’d love to actually. Post up if you’d like to meet up with him and I’ll coordinate. Cannot stress enough he puts together a great session in that part of the world.
