NxNW 2010 Rides

I might be up for some action Sunday, really doesn't matter weather wise as it looks like WET is the motto all weekend.

The hotsprings are probably not worth the trouble right now as it is wet and trail maybe snowed over. A 40 minute hike is required from the trail head. That would warm you up though!

The cabin is always ready. Last week in April was when we had the Meet 'N' Greet last year. A little chilly riding out, not unbearable though, more windy than anything else. One of the main FSR's was CRASHable last year. The next few weeks it seems to be promising snow in the area, but it is really warming up. I'll be going through and stopping there next weekend and I'll get a feel for the situation. But a Meet 'N' Greet might also be in order then. 2Trider will be here by then, have enough time to settle into Northern BC.

:clap: Let's do it!

Hot springs are only 5 minutes walk, if that...at least the ones I know about.

That's the one, you just have to park at the right spot. Not hard to find and you just head straight across along the highway not up and around or anything crazy like that. I seem to recall you can hear the highway from them so trend right once you get off the bike...and bring a couple beers, it takes a bit to fill the tub.

Ahh I see, there are two springs on that page, the top one is the one I know and it's short, the other looks nice and I have no idea about it.

OK it seems like you know what your talking about, its time to get your golden butt back here and show us where it is.



(By the way I can no longer trade the KLR for a housekleeningwoman, sold it to a single guy! I will just have to clean my own house again, next spring)

Let's not gothere again:shock: ...my (very old**) Speedos are 26"-28" waist! ...so looks likeit'll be naked Finns all around:?

I can get out Sat & Sun, let me know ...but for goodness sake not too early (again) - even if it's another road run

** I never throw anything out ...never know when you'll need them.

No worries Mica I missed it the first glancing run through as well.

Not looking good for this year, but it's real nice here too, just no mountains. Bit stormy today though. Enjoy the swim boys...I can't say I'll miss going naked fin with yawl.:spl:

Yeah we all know its nice where you are but dang, we are not there so how good can it be?

Now regarding the pant eating Ural, I am just about finished the mouth guard on the Russian lady. I was going to call her a pant eating beaaaaach, but she can't really help herself she gets so hot between my legs, can't really say that though,she gets hot just being turned on by me!

LOL Dr ...at least it's fun. By the way, did you throw in the "spare" tyres with the KLR?

Just off for a tootle up Saunders & Wedeene (our back road FSR towards Terrace)to see if I can get through - there was big wash out last November. I hear quads get through but as the Dr said we're only 2 wheel / 1 wheel drive...

Anyone up for Sat &/or Sun - Sparklr, any thoughts yet? (I promise no Speedos)

Have fun this weekend guys. I will be out for this weekend as I am going to pull the carb on the DR and rejet it so I don't have the decel farts

You younguns, go slow do not strip anything and you should be done in time for a ride easy. Mind you my lady farts, and pops like a boy scout on a bean diet till she gets hot and happy, so what do I know?

We are soaking in sun today hope its half as good tomorrow. I am thinkingtomorrow may be a great day to go around the lake, lunch in Burns and then home.

By the way this is the grill for the pipe, stopping the burn!

Saturday looks 'iffy, other than perhaps a quick run around and abouts Terrace area. Give us a shout if you are heading this way Steve or Mica, and I will try and join you for coffee.

Now Sunday is a different proposition...... I am game for anything but skinny-dipping with the naked Fin:shoot: I do however have first hand experience of how to locate the hotspring closest to the road. It is only 5 minutes walk after you climb up the bank using the ropes.

How about a run to Kitsault? My understanding is that the roadmay be plowed and clearas work is underway at this time. Mica, Steve are you interested? Any better ideas for rides we can do fully clothed? :bliss:

I'm pretty certain I don't qualify as a "Skinny Dipper", but Sunday sounds like a plan so far and trying to hit Kitsault would be fun, however I don't think we will get past the gate. I tried establishing contact with the guys up there, no luck but I did get busy signals indicating someone is possibly there. Going past the gate uninvited will not work in our favour, so I will try calling them tomorrow and get an update on the pass and get permission to visit. If we go while it's pissing buckets, I'm not in for yanking all my gear for several minutes of Naked Finn:shoot:! I'll bring a towel just in case.

That's not even mentioning getting out of the house alive during renos:hr:.

Either way. I'll will be trotting off Ahhemm EARLY! This is so I can get back EARLY, so I can score good Daddy points.

:hb:

Update: The good news is the wash-out has been back-filled and the bad news is that about500m further the FSR is solid pack snow/ice. So, I picked up the pig and turned around ....yup, first "step off" of the year

Saturday - I'll probably scuttle to Terrace just to escape.

Sounds like Sunday we could at least Road Run up to Aiyansh - then look at Cranberry or Hot Springs (at least to see where they are). Kitsault itself might be a push

What, Man Tits don't count?:mb:

I'm thinking we will hit snow trying the Cranberry and/or Kitsault either way, tough call.

Another option is try the Kasiks into Rupert, and go have a Yummy lunch! No snow really around there.

"So, I picked up the pig and turned around ....yup, first "step off" of the year "

What you didn't see the pothole this time or was it too big! :Stir
