How much fabric can you carry home on a Harley?
Hmmmm....sounds like something with a BIG trunk might be a good choice.
Gale & Teacup ... My DH & I wander about the countryside on our Goldwings, and we do have nice big trunks and saddlebags. However, they're packed with our travel duds ... when we're touring I've had to limit myself to a few small treasures. But I've decided that should I a store with lots I just can't leave at the store, I'm just going to have them ship it!
I was just in the Cambridge Lens Mills store - a sturdy historical building, and have been in the London store. Of course I found lots to fill in my stash :)
BUT - not very many bargains - lots of the bolts are the same price as we find in our LQS- $12 - $18 / meter. And it is not nearly as tidy or brightly lit as many of the larger stores I've been to state-side (JoAnns, MaryJos). Just so you know what you're in for if anyone is planning a trip.
That said, the Cambridge area (Kitchener / Waterloo / Galt / Cambridge) is a beautiful area with exciting spots to visit for many interests ... St Jacob's comes to mind :) And London is also a beautiful little city with interesting attractions.
Just my 2 cents ...
