Where Shall we Meet for Coffee on Sunday?

[Twisted_Twin]

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?

My wife used to shake her head when I referred to my cars as the "redneck stock market" Then I started selling them to put the house down payment together.

So far, antiques and car have been the best investments I've made.

Thanks for the info Rob,   I think I have got the itch for sure and Stan also has a good point regarding the value.     Maybee I will start with an open faced chrome helmet and black rimmed googles first to set the mood then the bike should follow.  I will check the site out and snoop around at Tswassen as I seem to recall one or two  for sale last year for semi-reasonable prices.
Just have to explain to June why I MUST have one.

Coffee on Sunday.

Let's meet at the Hilltop Cafe in Langley, 240th & Fraser hwy.  BUT!!!! Let's say 8:00 AM.  Then we can do a ride, maybe to Squamish (suggestions?) and be home for lunch or shortly thereafter.  There are many options for those who wish a longer ride, i.e. up to Cypress and/or Mt. Seymour.  Mt. Seymour is one of my favourite local rides.

Any input?

Cheers,

June and I will probably get the bikes out Sunday for a ride but need to be back in Pitt Meadows for a family dinner.
800 am on a Sunday would probably to early for our fragile lifestyle and dont want June to freeze as her metabolism is not the same as ours.   We are up for a ride but may have to play catch up or join another week so dont wait for us.  Monday is not an option for either of us and Saturday is bicyle day plus have to watch the bidding on that Norton on ebay just in case we have to jump in.
Boy o boy can we be difficult or what??

Shawn, Nico, Roy, and I went for a long ride today down into Washington today.  Long day.  Roy and I left my place at 6:45AM to meet Shawn and Nico in Abbotsford at 7:30.  We rode down to Annacortes and had lunch.  Had a really neat ride around the peninsula there.  Then out to Concrete, Sedro Wooley, and had another late lunch near Acme.  Crossed the border and had coffee in Abbotsford.  Nico headed home from there.  Shawn peeled off at 200th while Roy and I continued home to New West.  Roy and I didn't get home until 8:15PM.  Quite a long day.

Apparently my wife made dinner plans for us on Saturday and Sunday.  So given the long ride we had today and the social obligations, I'm not up to a long ride on Sunday.  I'll be at the Hilltop for coffee at 9:00.  If someone suggests a short ride from there I might be up for it, but that will be a game day decision.

Is the Hilltop OK, or is there somewhere else anyone would prefer?

Cheers,
Ross

Hilltop will be fine for us and a short ride will be okay then on to the family obligations for the rest of the day for us.

According the the Hill Top Cafe Facebook page, they will be closed this Sunday. The Wired Monk seemed to be closed every long week-end so how about Porters? Hobbs

Porters sounds good to me.  See you there.

Is Porters the one at the traffic circle in Langley around 33rd and 230th?

[stanfromhell]

Porters is at the 48 ave and 216 roundabout.

Okay thanks Stan,    looks like I would have ended up about 15 blocks South and 15 blocks east if I used my memory as a guide.   We should both be there tomorrow morning.  Apparently June wants to have a discussion with the group,  especially Rob about encouraging me and fueling my fire.

Hey Johnny Norton, just found this, thought you may get a kick out of it.

How about the Wired Monk on Sunday?  We haven't been there for a while.

Thanks for the vid David,  just noticed it tonight!  The Norton goes into the van on Monday and delivery date is planned for April 16th.
June has me running around completing  jobs around the house and yard before the bike arrives as she knows I will be rendered useless after its arrival here.
