damn

Your making me jealous bringing up a ride like harrison because since I am going through my break in I couldn't handle that right now but thanks. The rest of you go and have fun. Monday me and Mr. Murphy are riding since he is still going through his break in as well. I think that we are going to take the back road to mission(Dewdney Trunk) which will still be fun but not anything near anything riding to Harrison. I should be able to make the April 7th ride. Should be done break in by then. THat will rock can't wait. I hope for great weather and a good turnout.

Monday April 1st is not an official statutory holiday. Private sector companies are not obligated to give you a paid day off. However, all government employees have this day off probably because the unions fought for it. No one at any government level is going to complain.

I drove to Harrison on Tuesday. There is still a LOT of gravel on the road. It's gonna be real messy and scary on the corners. Better to stick to the coast for another week or two.

We rode to harrison a couple of days ago, it is fine. Vrombc.com went up to whistler last weekend and said the sea to sky is clear as well. If you worried just take it easy.

Yeah yeah, Harrison!!!

Man you guys... I rode to Harrison like a month and a half ago, it was totally nice. I wouldn't be into Squamish, too cold up there I think, at least Harrison is warmer.

If its gonna be Harrison, I'm in. I have Monday off, I work in a law firm, not a government job and I get the day off. :p

I don't have internet on the weekends normally (only at Digi's house), so I'll check in later, firm something up guys, so I'll know where to go and when.

ZOOM ZOOOOOOOOM up to Harrison!!!

Oh yeah, and to the guys just breaking in their bikes that posted near the top of this thread, I'm breaking in my R1 too, getting my 1,000 km service on Tuesday. If I can do it, YOU can dooooo it!!!

Ya, the Esso there at Willingdon and Broadway is what he might mean, it is brand new and maybe there is one at Kingsway and Willingdon but I also may have not been paying attention. Anyway, my break in will be finished by wednesday the 3rd so that leaves me out of the harrison ride but oh well , I can;t wait for the ride on the 7th. You guys have fun, and be safe. CIAO
