I'llopen bidding with 10am Terrace A&W ?

Ya, don't worry about me. I got social calendared up. But I am going to try to go for a small rip around here at some point on Sunday. DrBike, if you are planning to be in town on Sunday, look me up and we can do coffee at some point.
Have fun guys and remember to take photos :hb:

Awaiting the response from DrBike as to whether or not he is coming and more importantly if he will ride his Ural up the Kispiox before I make the decision on where to go. If the Dr. plans to join and navigate the Kispiox, then that is the destination and breakfast could be at Kitwanga or even Hazelton if someone knows of a good eats place there. If the Dr. is out, then I'd like to peek around the Terrace FSR's, and New Aiyansh is good for me also, Kincolith?. Another option is lunch in Rupert and check a few spots on the way.
"Ya, don't worry about me. I got social calendared up." Jim, social calendars are for rainy days!:Stir
"I'llopen bidding with 10am Terrace A&W ?" OMG Beautiful, I'll fall asleep again by then. One didn't need heated grips several weeks ago, and the only thing slippery and greasy is breakfast. I'm rolling at 8 for wherever. If we stay this side of Terrace I'll meet you at the Dub at 10.
Oops this would be tomorrow.

I didn't mean "literally" pushing :spl: . bchunter reported that we can travel up to the 80 km mark with no issues.
"I have a parcel I want to drop off somewhere around Kitwanga."
Somewhere around? Ok, you'll have to tell me if you want to hit Kitwanga first or somewhere around and we can go from there.

The road is snow free to 80+ km. I turned around at 79 or so and I could have gone on a lot further then that. But don't expect to take the Mitten yet, it is still snowed in.
It goes to around 100 km or so, but I usually never make it up that far.
Have fun guys.
I guess I will have coffee on Sunday afternoon by myself :cf2:

This will be a big trip for the Ural, she only has 500 klicks now so this will double it up. The lady is big, and slow so dont expect me to keep up to you KLR istas, but I can plug along at a nice sight seeing pace. Who else is showing up? Where do you want to meet up.
I dang near cried, saw Warrens old turd green KLR being driven by a man in a blue suit.....

Oh, ya, I forgot to add that for breakfast in New Town, the New Town Cafe is not too bad. For a coffee before you head out, Mercedes Beans in Old Town has regular coffee and premium coffee, depending on what your motor takes. Personally, I am fond of the Chevron coffee

So, the plan for Saturday is???
- Leave Kitimat ~9am (sorry, but icy/frosty mornings..)*
- Leave Terrace at 10am (default meet at A&W/Esso*)
- Meet Drbike in New Hazelton-Chevron at....? (lunch?)
Drbike pls confirm.
Alternative is Pr.Rupert or Kincolith (either is ok for me)
* just point me in the right direction if we miss for some reason - North, East or West?

Enjoy the ride guys...I'm out as well as soon as I can get done of work which should be about noon here, or 8 am there.
Glad to hear Filo got the bike all sorted out and on the road.
Seems awfully quiet in these forums these days....I suppose now that you actually CAN ride now everyone's busy!
Ride low, and fast.
Wish I was there.

yeah "Filo" seems happy, but if his cheque was signed by Filo, or Philo, don't take it his name is Tilo. It was Tilo that first told me about Urals, or as he says ughRll, its sort of weird ho things work out.
If your done at 8 you got not excuse get your butt over here :mb:, and join us. Time travel would be so good , note to self next project get a 6 pack and work on the time travel thing.
