Canada’s Most Rider Friendly Contest Winner!!!!
Canada’s Most Rider Friendly Contest Winner!!!!
Our
Quest to find the MOST Rider Friendly Community from the 2017 riding season is
over and in a resounding win, Lloydminster Alberta won that honour.
The
only border city in Canada, Lloydminster straddles the provinces of
Saskatchewan and Alberta and the border between Saskatchewan and Alberta is
signified by 4 100” tall survey markers.
Running
North to South on the 4th Meridian, the border falls directly on 50th Avenue
(Meridian Avenue) in the centre of Lloydminster. Addresses east of 50th Ave. are considered to
be in Saskatchewan and addresses west of 50th Ave are considered to be in
Alberta.
This
border town of 31,400 has a lot to offer the visitor.
For
the rider who needs parts or service, Edge Harley-Davidson (and they are member
business of the Rider Friendly Business Association), Lloydminster Honda , Rough
‘n’ Tough Powersports, Boundary Motorsports , White Knuckle Motorsports and
Lethal Motorsports are there to serve you. See their links below.
The
EconoLodge by Choice Hotels in Lloydminster is part of the Rider Friendly
Business Association and offers riders up to 20% off on rooms!
Sandy
Beach Regional Park offers a wonderful sandy beach, camping with serviced and
unserviced lots, tenting (which is becoming rare these days), golfing and a
camp kitchen and hall that are both for rent.
The
Bordertown H.O.G. Chapter is an active and busy one! They host the Toy Run in
September and are actively involved in every charitable ride in the region!
I
look forward to being in Lloydminster for their Toy Run in September to film 2
episodes of Ride Like a Local and learn all about the city and why riders in
the region are so proud of it!
Until
next time, ride like everyone around you is blind and cannot see you!
