Hi all. Took my daughter for a ride after work last night. Went to one of our local beaches...Cresent Beach. A little more quiet with some nice homes on the water. A great ride on twisty roads accessing the water.
A little cool on the way home as it was a cold, windy day.
Blackie...my access to MJ at work is no more

so this may be my last post before I leave for vacation. Take care bud and find us some new territory to explore.

Here are some pics of our night on the beach. Wrong coast...least coast...

...not tonight.

Atlas68 · 05-09-2006, 03:50 PM

And a few more...
Ride safe everyone. Be back in a few weeks if I don't get an opportunity to post before I leave.
Atlas.

Hey Atlas68
Did I see you peeking around the corner.

How was OJ land?

Atlas68 · 05-26-2006, 02:54 AM

Hi Blackie. Peeked in for a few minutes.

Not much computer time since home.
Got back into town on Wed. in the wee hours.
The trip was fantastic. Awesome weather out there in Fla. Lots of nice sights. Would have loved to ride, but couldn't fit it in.
I'm at work now...2 nights to put in then 4 off.
I'll post a few pics when I get a chance.
Pinhy, Danr, and all the other boys down there sure got some nice riding.
The Dragon trip will unforgetable for those fortunate enough to attend.
Keep safe bud.
Atlas.

What is your schedule, better weather coming.
I am going for a ride with Damian2888 Tues. am, if the weather is good.
I heard a high of 22c tomorrow, has been a week since last ride.

Atlas68 · 05-29-2006, 01:12 PM

LOL. Had my bag packed for a ride this morning. Thought I'd chance the weather and it started raining as I was digging out my gear.

This was my free day. I'll let you know about tomorrow, but don't think it will work out at this time. I'm busy before noon and can't see any free time until after 12:30.

If you head out, have fun you two.

blackie1491 · 05-30-2006, 11:21 AM

Sun is shinning, high is 24c. 10 days no ride.

Time to go for a ride!!!!!

Were you out and about to-day, I passed an Blue M50 that sounded like you 3 times today, but the rider was wearing diff. Helmet and jacket, but the pipes sure sounded like yours. Once in Burnaby, once in Coquitlam and again in Fort Langley.

Atlas68 · 05-31-2006, 07:51 AM

I did get out from 1:30 to 2:30. Made my way out to Fort Langley, thru town and out behind the fort for a spin. Sound like the time frame you're refering to?...Same helmet...Blue JR jacket.

How'd the skills test go? Did Damian get his restrictions lifted?

I'm debating whether to ride the bike in to work today...with all the talk of rain on its way. Now where'd I put the waterproof pants...

blackie1491 · 05-31-2006, 11:36 AM

Blue/white Full Face helmet and Blue jacket.
Before you were wearing a black full face and black jacket.
I was heading into Fort Langley, he was coming out turning right to head west.

Damian passed, no longer needs a class 6 holder, wants to get together with us for a ride, he is busy with Graduation coming up.

Rain coning tonight will head out shortly to get some seat time in.

Damian2888 · 06-06-2006, 02:54 AM

Hi blackie and atlas, got my alarm and bike working good now. Hope to get in some riding. Got around town today thats about it. Schedule is booked for grad,school, and work. Love to plan something soon.

blackie1491 · 06-06-2006, 11:57 AM

Damian

Let me know when you are available. the weather is looking good, I have a
son racing at Mission on the 17 & 18th, Mike is supposed to be back on the 20 th and I will check with Tom.

Damian2888 · 06-08-2006, 01:20 AM

Time is scarce right now..I am finishing up school and switching over jobs. Once i have my new job things should clear up.

blackie1491 · 06-19-2006, 01:09 AM

Atlas
The weather is suppose to be good.
How is your schedule?
Dow did you do on the saddle bags.

I think I am 100km short of 10,000 miles. Tried to hit before 1 year on the 16th.

Atlas68 · 06-19-2006, 01:18 AM

Hi Blackie. I'm off on Tues-Fri.
Wednesday, looks like the best day to get out at this point.
You're miles ahead of me. 5200 k's since October...and that's with time spent in the rain!

Been out with Damian since his electrical probs?

Re: Bags...Thanks for the reminder, I've got to check with S2. I'm eager, but still waiting in line for the green light. Someone may have beat me to it.

blackie1491 · 06-19-2006, 01:27 AM

He is busy with new job and Grad.

I have 8,000 km since 1st of Feb.

If you have about 4-5 hours, I have a great ride for you.

Out thru Fort Langley thru Mount Lehman, out thru Matsqui across the bridge to Mission, east on #7 to Hope, ride about 26km on #1, then head along Popkum road thru Rosedale, then Chilliwack, then Vedder, then Yarrow back along
Hungington to home. Should have time for lunch.

Atlas68 · 06-19-2006, 01:35 AM

Sounds good Bob.
Last week I rode out #7 to Harrison mills, trying to make it to the hot springs. Weather and time prevailed. I don't see a problem for that ride on Wednesday. I do know my 2 girls in high school will soon be out, but can't remember when. I'll keep you posted.

blackie1491 · 06-19-2006, 01:38 AM

Great!

Post that I love Louis in the water cooler thread. I want to see Tim and Doug's reaction. Never mind Sunny's.

Atlas68 · 06-19-2006, 02:01 AM

The watering hole just got a little 'dirtier'.

blackie1491 · 06-19-2006, 02:40 AM

I prefer a little clearer!!!
