Moving to Saskatoon
Hi,
In 3 month, I'll leave Quebec because i'm relocated to Saskatoon for my job. I'll bring the bike with me for sure! I read a lot of websites and wanted to know if I understood right. Insurance for the bike in included in the plates in Saskatchewan? It means that it costs ~1150$ to have the bike full covered with theft and plated? Can someone help me with that? |

Dude, leaving Montreal for Saskatoon? Bummer... (OK, never been to Saskatoon, but I love Montreal!)
You're right, the permit registration there does indeed include insurance, which is run by the province there. The guy I bought my bike from was from there originally. Can't say how much he was paying, but he said it was a hell of a lot cheaper than in Ontario. I'll e-mail and ask him for a dollar amount. |

Here's what he replied: "In Saskatchewan I had the seca 750 and insurance for that, which includes plates, was 400 or something like that. It was a few years ago so I'm a little foggy on the details."

I think I'm going to Saskatooooooon,
that's really, really where I'm going to. If I ever get out of here, that's what I'm gonna do. S-S-S-S-S-S-S-Saskatoon, I think that's where I'm going to. If I ever get out of here, I'm going to Saskatoooooooooon. I got no kick against the west coast; Warner Brothers are such good hosts. I raise my whiskey glass and give them a toast, I'm sure they know it's true. I got no rap against the southern states. Every time I've been there it's been great. But now I'm leaving and I can't be late and to myself be true. That's why I'm going to Saskatoooooooooon, up to the mountains where I'm going to. And if I ever get out of here, that's what I'm gonna do. S-S-S-S-S-Saskatooooooon, that's really, really where I'm going to, oh, if I ever get out of here I'm going to Saskatoooooooooon I got no quarrel with the midwest, the folks out there have given me their best. I lived there all my life, I've been their guest, I sure have loved it, too. I'm tired of looking at the TV news. I'm tired of driving hard and paying dues. I figure, baby, I've got nothing to lose, I'm tired of being blue. That's why I'm going to Saskatoooooooooon, up to the mountains where I'm going to. If I ever get out of here, that's what I'm gonna do. S-S-S-S-S-S-Saskatoon, take me, baby, 'cause I'm going with you. If I ever get out of here I'm going to Saskatoooooooooon. I ain't got nothing 'gainst the east coast. You want some people where they got the most. And new york city's like a friendly ghost, you seem to pass right through. I know I'm gonna miss the USA. I guess I'll miss it every single day. But no one loves me here anyway. I know my playing is through. That's why I'm going to Saskatoooooooooon, up to the mountains where I'm going to. If I ever get out of here, that's what I'm gonna do. S-S-S-S-S-Saskatoon, really, really going to, if I ever get out of here, if I ever get out of here, if I ever get out of here, I'm going to Saskatoooooooooon. |

In fact, I'm moving there to learn english. I want to be more fluent and th only way to achieve this is to move in an english environment.
I'll miss Montreal for sure but I consider this an "investment" for my engineering career. |

Saskatoon isn't so bad. I got my Engineering degree there and I loved it. As far as the riding season goes, it may be shorter than some but 4 months is BS. I am in Lloydminster now (Northwest of Saskatoon) and generally take the bike out mid April and park it for the season mid to late October which is a good 6 months. That said, it is unseasonably warm here today, so I might just go out this afternoon.
Cheers |

Hey..There is good! You have a easy ride and you are in sight of the Rockies and the best riding in Canada(BC)... Saskabush is out on the bald Prairie alright..you will find the winter a jolt from Montreal..Just learn to dress right and no big deal...you will not be thrilled riding those roads after a while, but exploring new ground will still make it fun for a while. One thing is Sask was just getting into a real big boom(like all the west) just before the recession, and it will come back strong shortly. Seems they found its full of that black goo! :) The future and money is out west so a good place to try out now! Hope you have a great time, and take some holidays and get out to BC!!
Hey, you coulda been sent to Winnipeg!!
