Reclaiming the Colonies Tour 2006
To whoever is interested:
I'm planning a two week trip to see the New World in October, taking in DeathBowl (Biggest BB Tournie in Canada) and The Chaos Cup (Biggest BB Tournie in USA and one of the "Majors").
Provisional itinery is:
12th - Fly to Montreal
12th/13th - Visit Montreal
14th/15th - Deathbowl (Montreal)
16th - 18th - Drive down to New York, visiting New England, Salem's Lot, "Lovecraft" country, etc
18th/19th - See New York
20th - Fly New York to Chicago
21st/22nd - Chaos Cup (Chicago)
23rd or 24th - Fly Chicago to Las Vegas
26th/27th/28th (TBC) - Fly home
Flights in/out will either be from London or Manchester, depending on price. If out of Manc then I can put people up night before if you're driving/flying in to Manc; if out of London then will hopefully be able to arrange something similar.
If anyone would like to be kept informed of prices or is thinking of joining in then post here/PM me/Email me/Text me/Ring me/Send a note via Carrier Pigeon/Come round and knock on the door.

[EDIT]: Costs TBC, but I am aiming for about/under £600 for the 4 flights. Hotels/Motels are anticipated at average £30 per night (so £250), then it's Food, Drink, Tips, Tricks and a fat bank roll for Vegas!!

I'm up for it pending costs, which I usually ignore.
Though you forgot to mention trips to montreal strip clubs. Last time I was over in toronto for the spike the montreal guys said that the strip clubs were better there. Though to be honest the one in toronto was pretty good. I tihnk it would be rude not to compare.
Though I must point out due to me never learning it might be wise if I didn't help out with the driving ;]
oh my birthday is on the 29th love to be in vegas for it

I fear I fear....
even on the European majors there where no coaches who could stop your havoc on the NAF Rankings.
And now you want to retake the new world.. with your amazons I presume. That will hit them harder than an headless hessian!
I wish the americans the best, but it would´t help them anyway.
But for their help I can only look to your friends.
The only one who could stop you is a coach you take with yourself.....
Geggster! savior of the patriots.

Grumbledook if you though the Toronto bars were good you may not want to leave Montreal.
