Where Shall we Meet for Coffee on Sunday?

[stanfromhell]

A clutch of Triumphs...  Rob you are a true Wordsmith.
Now, what do you suggest we should call a group of three or more Kawasakis?
A plague perhaps?

Speaking of indecent Roy, those fur lined (ocelot?) shin guards you sport might garner some unsolicited attention if worn inside out in the wrong company . I'm not sure Frank would allow us to post pictures of those but we can try. Standards must be kept up don't you know  .

How about a covey of Kawasakis? A school of Suzukis, a horde of Hondas, a gaggle of Guzzis......

Stan,  if it makes you feel any better your Indian is one of the very few bikes I would ever consider selling my Kawasaki for!  We will have another Honda in the mix soon to even the crowd a bit once Mrs Wheels gets out and rolling on Sundays.  That time change last week has affected her more than myself so we should see her in mid May at the coffee meetings.

I have a confession to make, then I'm going to delete this post after a day and deny it ever existed.
I had a couple of Kawasaki dirt bikes, a KX 125 and a KDX 200 and I loved them. They were reliable, handled extremely and were very competitive with the other brands. I dont think I ever went home without a trophy when I raced them.

Admitting you have a problem is the first step.

Bear says he may be in Burnaby on Sunday and would like to attend our coffee get together.  So I'm suggesting Vibrato in Coquitlam as a location.



Cheers,
Ross

Vibrato is good for me also,  it would be a pleasure to say hello to you again Barry.  June and I are still searching for a second home up there so it would be great to share notes once again.

Barry,    June was just asking why you and Running Dog were coming down?  She said you guys are probably down here for the Orchid show this weekend.

Please help me.

Although Orchids are right up there for me, I am actually doing family visit duty this week during spring break. I will be available for coffee or brunch on Sunday.

What time is the anointed hour for Vibrato on Sunday?

Bear

[stanfromhell]

We arrive around 9:00 when it opens. The address will show up in an earlier post

Fair weather resulted in a good turmout of bkes at Vibrato's today
Galacticas Z1, Kiwi Roy's Guzzi, Wheels KZ1000, Maggotbreath's Turbocharged Indian Slayer, Hobb's Hillman Masterpiece, Kiwi Canucks VStrom and lst but not least Jims immaculate Commando. Thanks Bear for bringing the sunshine with you from Summerland, it was good to meet you and we all hope to see you again soon.

Thanks Stan,

Good picture and looks like spring is in the air,  what a cool collection of bikes this morning ( is cool still a word?)
A good sign of spring is that none of us wanted to sit inside the coffee shop and we took guard of our collected bikes and pride outside the shop for a good chat before relinquishing back to the lounge. Good weather, good day and best of all good bikes.

Think I am looking for a Norton for my next purchase, can someone help me?

Hey John,

That black one yesterday got you fevered, eh? VERY pretty bike, those Commandos....almost went there myself. Check out this site (a consignment place on Van. Island I think), there are always a couple posted for sale. Not cheap though and projects are hard to find. Maybe Peter can steer you towards somebody in the Brit bike crowd if you're serious. There's also Tsawwassen coming up soon...

Also check out Colorado Norton Works for pure fantasy. Not for purists but damn pretty bikes.

Welcome to the next chapter of your life!

[stanfromhell]

Unlike the RRSP's I've invested in, a Commando purchased for the right price will likely increase in value every year and....... have you ever tried to ride an RRSP?
