Post has been on DSBC Facebook for a few days - belatedly posting he here on the real site.

Organized by Lower Mainland Africa Twin Owners. Others welcome. I'll call it an intermediate ride because it's 450km long, some rain is possible and the pace on gravel will be reasonable. Come prepared for whatever.
Planning to meetup / leave Chevron 1st & Rupert 08:00, Chevron Town Pantry Mission 09:00 and Sasquatch Inn 09:30.
Mile One Eating House in Pemberton for a burger when we get there - 14:30? Back in Vancouver ~17:30

We had 5 at the Rupert & 1st Chevron, William (1200GS), Peter (Strom), Brian (Varadero), RD and Andrew (Africa Twins).
Picked up Alex (AT) in Mission and Chris (AT) at Sasquatch Inn.
The road to 20-Mile was flooded past the gate so we had a social distancing fluids break.

No pics of the cluster fzck traffic jam with pickup on the wrong side of road with smashed front end and fluids drooling. A dozen vehicles heading south and half dozen heading north all stoped. People wandering around and staring - no one doing anything about the dead truck blocking the road - they were Pylons to practice foot-peg steering.

Stopped to enjoy the view. The smell of dope was pervasive. Found the source 2km down the road as we passed it - burnt Orange Chev pickup.

Active logging south of the log sort. At the log sort a Pickup and tracked grappler obscuring the proper muddy road direction so some of us headed straight on - the the laughter of the loader operator.

And then it was time for a Mile-One Eating house visit. The rain came while the burgers were et. The BMW, Strom and Varadero wandered off, leaving the 4-twins to ride home together.

We parted ways at HWY1 Capilano exit.

Thanks for the ride my friends.
