Canadians are more than welcome, just remember to be legal for US travel/stops. There will be NO Canadian stops for our group...

Why is there no stops in Canada? Canadians attending your run will need to have an I-68 Permit or Nexus Card.

I know, it's sick... ya gotta love the spending frenzy in Washington... Print print print...

Where'd you go in Windsor? Just the Casino? If you're ever there with a group of people there is a cool restaurant within walking distance of the Casino (when its not freezing anyhow... it's like 7-8 blocks). It's called Harvey Low's Yummy House. They have authentic Chinees food (not chop suey, they have stuff like lemon shrimp, dragon eyed shrimp, etc.), and it is amazing. Another cool feature of the place (and the reason you need a decent group... 6 or more works perfect) is they put everyone's entre in the middle of the table on a HUGE lazy suzan. Everyone gets to eat a little bit of what everyone else ordered (and they give you PLENTY... if one person wanted to eat nothing but their entre they could get full and other people could still try their dish).

If anyone goes you HAVE to try the "hot and spicy noodle soup"... It's AMAZING!

Most of the people from the run are from the states. It takes a bunch of legal stuff to be able to make canadian stops. Since it's just a fun run we want to keep it simple.

We did not even stop in canada last year and when we stopped at a place to eat we had about a dozen cops and other law enforcement people start checking the boats out.

We have 50+ people attend this event and 99.9% are from the states which to do a Canadian stop would require all these people to do the same as you. It was talked about 2yrs ago, but now with all the restrictions it's pretty much to difficult to do.

Last year we where hassled at Jack's by Border Patrol wanting to know if we had been to Canada. After that it was decided to keep it on the US side of the river.
