We have a 700 KM trek to Kenora today and in the morning we hook up with the 10th Anniversary Ride for the MRFD.
So - there will be no blogging besides the travel blogs for the next couple of days unless I find myself with some time.
It is challenging - building the paper bit by bit every day, staying on top of paperwork, meeting people and riding but we are getting in the groove.
Apparently I touched a bit of a nerve with a few people yesterday with my comments on Pee Wee Herman and Sturgis. I want everyone to understand that as a survivor of abuse - I am not going to condone someone who owns "art" as he called it by way of explicit magazines etc. I know that many may think me unforgiving but when it comes to children and abusers - I know only too well how the abuser can lie, manipulate and generally weasel their way out of things - I experienced that for many years. Perhaps the man is innocent but I will Never feel comfortable with that individual having any representation around children. But that is just me.
In the news today:
In Saskatoon the counsellor who wants to quiet the noise from motorcycles is being threatened.
In Newfoundland a rider is dead after a crash.
In Australia the Hells Angels attended the funeral of a reported crime boss.
In Ontario - the Ozzy’s Garage Youth Mentorship Program is working miracles
In Kamloops BC - city council is being urged to leave noisy bikes to the RCMP
