Are you insuring here or in Vernon?

Hmmmm, not sure if the GS is ready for a long ride, but it is insured.   Have to get out maybe for a short ride and see how it is running.

OK,  I deal with Western.  Next to the library.

Howie, if the trip is too far would you prefer somewhere else?  But Mark has Henry's old Z1 at Dreamcycle.  It's not something us guys would want to ride but it's pretty impressive as a souped up bike.  220 Hp or thereabouts according to Mark.  It's for sale on FB Marketplace.

Don't worry about me, thanks, weekends always bring more goings-on than I usually get to.   I'm usually freer in the week.  Have a fun ride, weather is here, wish you were beautiful.

I'm contemplating putting my Collector Bike on the road, so might pick up Insurance on Saturday morning.  Please post your expected meeting time in case I can make it.
CHEERS

I would say around 11 or so.

I'm good for 11 but it's going to be a cool ride!

A reminder for people for this summer.  They are doing a lot of work on the highway between Salmon Arm and the White Lake turnoff.  It will be dusty and likely a lot of delays.

Getting ready to head out.  Weather Network says 5 deg.  The route is mostly in shade so it's going to be a cool one!

It was cold along the Shuswap Lakes...3 deg.  We took the Notch Hill road from Sorrento to Dreamland because it was slower riding and not as hard on the hands.  When we got to Dreamland it was closed...won't open until April 13.  Mark was there so we checked out some of the bikes he's been working on.  Then we rode back to the restaurant beside the highway in Blind Bay.  It was really busy but we found a spot to sit.  Henry and Bill rode through Blind Bay so were late to the restaurant but we sat and talked bikes for 90 minutes or so. 

So no pie today.  Will have to wait until April.

I went out for another ride on Sunday.  Rode into Kamloops and back.  Too bad this nice weather is disappearing for a while.
