I agree ...Good Looking!

I just love Norton's in all colours and stripes. That is a very nice looking Norton PJ and there is truly nothing that sounds like them.

Looking for an Interstate tank right now so I can start on my '72 with Combat 750 engine.

Very happy that it is staying lighter out longer now. Got out after dinner to get rid of some cobwebs. Great night for a ride and a nice sunset around the Pacific. Looks like the weather might start turning for the better. Supposed to be 11 and sunny this weekend and a few of us are planning a nice long ride up Island.

Grand Bend??    My first summer job was there, at the games arcade down by the beach....likely a Walmart, now, as that was in 1968 or 9......

That arcade is long gone - I think it burnt down when I was in high school or shortly there after (mid to late 70's).  I remember there was a big controversy a few years later when some dude showed up with a deed and claimed he owned the entire beach.  As I recall, everybody though he was a nut job or con artists but eventually he turned out to be right.  Not sure how the whole deal was settled but know the last time I was there - which was probably more than 10 years ago now, there were condos on the beach where that old arcade used to be.

Ahhh, the Bend, I don't think I was ever there sober (until the last time).  Remember the Pinery?  Every time I ever tired to camp there I got kicked out - never spent a full night in the park!  Good thing I'm a lot more sensible now

Ahh the Pinery, got poison ivy there! That was brutal! Me, Ryan Ludington, Dave Lamarche, Mark Haight, Roger Labrash and Scott Thompson. Drunker than skunks. By the way those condos was that guys settlement for letting go of his rights to the beach!

Me and Rob got out today for a little ride and some lunch too!

[Glenn]

Ahh, the good old My-Chosen Cafe. Many are Colwood... few are Metchosin!

See you and Rob tomorrow!

Great weather for a ride today guys! Have a good one, and stay safe.

Ah, yes, the Pinery.....one time when we (as a family) were camping there, me, my brother (Hawkeye), two sisters, and cousin Peggy walked from the Bend along the beach to the Pinery....I think it took days.....or hours, or something like that.  According to Google Earth, about 8 klicks....

I was planning to get a good ride in today but some of that Vancouver weather blew in to Woodstock today, rain rain and more rain.

Me, Rob and Glenn met at 11am and went up Island for a 300km ride. Had lunch at the Genoa Bay Cafe. Nice spot and great food. What a day!I tell you I had to push the old 750 pretty hard to keep up to these boys in the twisties! Thanks guys that was a lot of fun today. Greg and Sheldon hope you can make it next time.

Glad you guys had great weather and a great run today.!

I have to put the back wheel back on tomorrow "new rubber is always a treat!" and swap out the bulbs in the speedo and tach. Give the battery a charge and time to fire the old girl up for another year. Hopefully insurance this week, but have to get some new knives for work, and a good set of chef's knives are never cheap.

Sheldon:You got a chef's gig then?Email when I'm done here.
Trevor:the plan right now is to insure Yeller on April 6

[sheldonbourgeois]

Not yet Greg, but I have to get a set as most Hotels expect you to have them.


You should be on the road soon, excellent!

Had 3 interviews over the weekend and told them all the same thing, I won't be available on May 5th! I won't start working till after then if need be, but I'm not going to miss that run!
