    Any Vancouver area riders want to meet for a ride ???

    I can see there are quite a few VFRs around the GVRD.

    Would you like to hook up for a ride?

    Hey Axel - sounds good, maybe this Sunday if it works for you. Hoping this great weather holds. I could come out your way - I agree the Fort Langley / Abby back roads are nice.

    I have 2 boys in soccer Sat...so I'll be all over the place.

    Hi,
    I would love to meet up and go for a ride sometime. Right now I am waiting to get my bike back from Carter Honda as I was involved in an accident 2 weeks ago. (A guy ran a red light)
    PM me next week sometime. I should have my bike back then.

    Yikes! I assume you're OK. Good on you for "getting back on the horse". Let us know when you are rolling again.

    Thanks Guys!
    Yeh Im alright, I had a massive bruise to my lower back but its just about cleared up. I was wearing proper gear. The internal back protector in my leather jacket saved my back.
    Im hoping the bike will be ready this for this weekend. I will give them a call tomorrow to check on it.
    Im not in the valley Im in Vancouver but Im always out that way either riding around or watching the motards at tradex.

    Axel - Are we going to try and meet Sunday morning? Hope the weather holds for the first half of the day anyway.

    Steve - Are you getting your bike back today?

    Sorry to hear that. Frustrating to put up with when it was never your fault. Good luck!

    Weather permitting, Axel and I are meeting at the Timmies at 200th and 86th ave in Langley at 9:00 AM tomorrow (Sunday). For some back roads through Langley / Abby / Mission / Maple Ridge.

    If anyone else is interested...just show up.

    Cheers.

    Should we try again?

    GVRD Ride Monday Oct 8

    The holiday Monday looks like the best day this weekend. How about we try for a ride, let's say 10 AM. Ft. Langley / Abby / Mission / MR loop?
    I'm flexible if anyone has other ideas.

    It is a small world indeed...we will all have to get together before the snow flies. My VFR is insured until 3rd week of Nov. Hope to see you out there. I think I am going to pass on the Van toy run but the valley one I usually get to...they have coffee and muffins!!

    Oct 8 Ride

    Here's a thought - How about 10AM Monday at the Farmer's Market - 240th (I think) and Hwy 7, just up from the Albion Ferry. We could take the ferry and start the "loop" back to MR.

    I think we're in for some nasty weather Sunday, let's confirm Monday morning.

    Well Chomper, it's not raining..are we still on? If the breakfast is no good at Bruces's, we could change it to "lunch on the road" somewhere.
