:clap:pacific Yamaha BMW will also have demo bikes availablefor guided test rides :clap:



This has been a popular start of the season event for the past 3 years. This is more than just a ride . . . it's a social event so come out and meet other members.

We are in the process of talking to our Sponsors and arranging bikes for test rides. More info to come on that.

Even though there will be basic route sheets this will be a guided ride as trails will not be marked or ribboned.There will be sweep riders to make sure that everyone finds their way.

Please post here or PM me if you plan on attending so we have an idea of how many riders there will be.

Keep an eye on this thread for more info and updates.

I'm in, and I believe there will be three or four more coming down from Kamloops too.

Hi Jude,

Prepare to feed myself, and another (hungry - sort of guest).

It'll be a nice contrast from chasing a bunch of punkin patch orange mafia around the baja - like watching kids at a playground!

I'm no expert... But I "THINK" Suzuki sells the V-Strom as an adventure bike, it comes with more or less aggressive tires stock right? (Aggressive as in not street slicks)

Scott, I have sent you a PM.

There are never any guarantees that someone won't drop their bike :ted:
