    Hey folks - Just starting a new thread for this year.

    Let's post rides here to take advantage of the e-mail notification.

    When we get down to the back and forth logistics, etc - we can move it over to the "Community/Social Groups/ Vancouver - Lower Mainland Group Rides" area, to help keep the site a little less cluttered.

    LINK: VFRworld - Vancouver / Lower Mainland Group Rides Check here often, as there is no notification!

    Looking forward to seeing all the usual "characters" and meeting a few more.

    All the best for a safe 2009!

    Cheers,
    Bryan

    Good idea, the lack of notification makes it so easy to miss posts... actually I haven't been there for a bit; I should go take a look.

    I'm going to try and get out tomorrow (Sat.) for a few hours. Say, 1 to 4 or so. Any interest out there?

    Request road report / Valley guys - how are the roads out in Abb. and Chilliwack?

    Who was the westbound rider on the red '02-'04 VFR on the Upper Levels Hwy, Sunday March 1 around 2pm? Riding fairly slowly (under the speed limit).

    Looking for more info on the Mt baker ride.

    Is it still on and when?

    Just finalizing vacation plans, I hope that the ride coincides with either vacation days or days off.

    Thanks.

    Looking at the forecast, it looks like Wed. (25th) is the only decent day for awhile. I may have to make time.

    How does 1:30PM at Wendel's (Fort langley) sound?

    Anybody else???????????

    I'm 90% on this. Will confirm in the morning.

    Corrugated - PM sent

    Can't make this ride as I have to go to Chilliwack tomorrow for work but I think I will take the bike. I will take any riding I can get at this stage.
