Thanks gang.....

A great day!

I had a really great birthday and want to pass along to Glenn Roberts from Motorcycle Mojo a Happy Birthday! He and I share June 19th as our birthday!

Haven't been able to ride much this last 2 weeks with the bike show only 10 days away - hence I am looking forward to Monday and the ride to Olds to get set up!

Hope to see some of you out for the show - it's gonna be a good one!


Have a great week everyone....ride often & hard!

Toad Rock & The Canadian Championships

Mary and I have teamed up to provide a great prize to one lucky person - go to both Toad Rock and the Canadian Championships & win a Cruzin Cooler!

Lou of Rocky's Ride for Diabetes will be leaving the Canadian Championships at 2 - 2:30 on Saturday from the Canadian Championships to go to Toad Rock - join him, or go on your own and you could win!

Have a great day - Ride often, hard and stay safe out there!

A busy time!

Getting the last of the paper work done before the Canadian Championship of Bike Building.

Inspite of everything, all the hiccups and challenges we are as ready as we can be. With over 70 vendors, some of Canada's most beautiful motorcycles, a burn out pit, a dyno, a rodea, a show n shine & a scavnger hunt, not to mention live music, yah it's gonna be a good time!

I'll be up to my eyeballs in paper work, but I'll try my best to keep you in the loop!
Have a great week!

Ride often & ride safe....

On the road....again

I have been on the road for the past week, I am still on the road! I love it. My husband was quite surprised when he realized I have over 5500kms on the bike already and by the time I get home I will be close to 6,500 - as I expressed to him - I have 23 years without a bike to make up for - and since I started riding my own again - well I don't want to stop - ever! The new FLHX is treating me really well, it's a beautiful machine!!!

I hope that those watching the news say a few prayers for our BC friends who are being flooded out. My bike came from Smither's H-D and I hope the gang at the shop are doing ok through all of this. My prayers go out to everyone there....Mother nature can be cruel as we all know.

The Ride to Camrose was an ok event with about 4-500 bikes turning up, but most didn't hang around too long as it was scorching hot and there were no tents for shade.

The Redwater Ride for Hunger was a resounding success with over 1,000 bikes showing up and about 500 participating in the Poker Run.

I wished that I could stick around for the Ride for Sight but I need to get home - paperwork calls!

I want to thank everyone who gave me a piece of the floor wherever I went - it's great to have so many good friends and it sure helps the budget.

For those of you who are fed up with gas prices may I make one suggestion? Get on your bike and ride more. High gas prices are just one of many reasons to get on your bike more.

Have a great weekend no matter which event you attend.

Ride hard, ride safe.
