45 minutes to the border and another 45 minutes to downtown Montreal...Best of both worlds.

I was actually thinking about Vancouver (just because I've never been to Montreal)

You should come over with your bike in the summer for three weeks or so for a holiday.

Bring your wife and child.I'll put you up and show you around.

Just leave me the bike and I'll pay you what the other guy didn't...

Summer one block from my house Lake Champlain 10 miles across to the New York side.

I can give you the name of a good bike shipping agent and there is an international airport quite close to icemans home.

I'm gobsmacked by your generous offer. Words truly fail me.

If the lady in my life read your post, I'm sure we would be there like a shot. She likes travelling, and she would be very, very happy indeed to visit that part of North America.

Unfortunately, I have reached an agreement with another member of this forum to sell the bike to him.
We shook hands on a deal, and I think it would be unfair of me to renege it.

If you had made your offer a week ago, I would have given it serious consideration.
I suppose your best chance is to hope he will change his mind, but it's a long shot.

This bike sale has been plagued by bad timing since the start, it's so disappointing.

Hi everyone.
A quick line to say that the bike was sold yesterday.
It has been an amazing ride, and she has left me with many happy memories (And a couple of not-so-happy ones).

Thanks to all who expressed an interest in the bike.
