[QUOTE="fjrob1300, post: 872206, member: 3146"] Hey Pierre I guess that's why I never caught up to you. The trip through the tunnel took me over 3 hours too. But, I was hell bent on making it home last night. That is until the rain and lightening show came on. Couldn't see the trucks in front of me. As visions of Matt hitting pieces of wood he could see were dancing in my head I pull into the Motel 6 in Kingston. (my new rain suit works great) They put me on the same floor as a visiting 14 yr old girls hockey team!! Doors slamming and girls running up and down the hall.Giggling and screaming!! Oh boy do I miss coaching my Daughters team. This morning I went to start the bike and... and...dead battery!! Left my cop light on all night. Crap. So I went and got Baby Hughie out from behind the desk to give me a little push. "how far do I need to push mister, I have flat bottom shoes on?" "Just a nudge young fella" VRRROOOOM! "Thanks" lol . No speeding tickets on the way but I did get the Hairy eyeball from one of Ontario's finest. 131 in a 100. Guess he couldn't be bothered. Went through a RIDE check right after breakfast. Cute blonde lady officer asks with a smile if I'd had anything to drink this morning. Just coffee M'am. On the 401 doing about 120 and out from under a car shoots Matt's 4x4 peice of wood!! Phew...avoided that in the knick of time. Cruizing along the 115 at about 120 and a wild turkey jumps off the middle cement devider just to make sure my heart was still working. Little f**ker. Just teasing. He jumped back over just to test a van drivers heart. Made it home just as the sky let go again. Ahhhh. Great week at CFR 2011. Thanks to all that help in putting these things together.
