It's still snowing - I thought this was supposed to be spring!

Do you realize the here in the wonderful province of ALBERTA THAT THE 15TH OF APRIL SIGNIFIES SIX FULL MONTHS OF WINTER!

Yes, you read right, six months of this lovely white crap, no wonder so many people are getting grumpy.

Off to Edmonton today, home tomorrow for Easter...and my own bed.

Have a great day everyone and let's put some collective prayers out to mother Nature and the good lord that we see some grass soon.....

A four letter word

SNOW


I'm here in central Alberta admiring all of the white fluffy stuff and treacherous roads.
IT SUCKS, but things are really coming together for the show!

Hope you are all surviving the PMS - I am, barely.

On the road again

Well the swap season is here. It's good to see so many friends after a really long winter.
I'll be in Olds all week meeting with the various charities and getting final details organized.

Hope you all have a safe week and that wherever you live Mother nature is kind to you.

The Events Pages

I have been getting a lot of requests to copy our run and event information.
You may add a link to our calendar but you may not copy it.

I work with and help everyone I can but the runs pages are my bread and butter.

I hope those who ask understand that I work long hard hours to amass the information that I do when it comes to the events pages. Over 400 people to contact every year, tons of phone calls and data entry and the events pages are what make our paper different from any other Canadian publication.

I hate saying no to people, but that has to be our policy, otherwise I wouldn't have a job.

Thanks for understanding, and have a great day.

Almost there!

Well, I am almost caught up.

The books are rebuilt and at the accountants for corrections. The Business and Rider member cards are finally done and the last ones hit the mail today!

This has been without a doubt, one the hardest periods of time I have spent, the reward?
I am more organized than ever before! Next, the phone book and the 800 or so addresses I have to clean up and the runs pages, getting them tweaked and tuned.

I am looking so forward to being able to get on my ride. Snow - ice, please melt.

Have a great day!

Who said technology makes life easier?

I ask that question as I am sitting here manually transferring all of the web links I have accumulated over 3 years into our new web sites because yah, the import/export function won't work since we did the upgrade.

So anyway, I am transferring over all of the Riding Group Web Links I have.

Please, if you know a club/chapter that has a Canadian members web site, please add it!

Oh yah, and if you know anyone who wants a job.... I thought not.

Membership cards etc....

Well gang, the last round of membership cards should hit the post office this afternoon or Thursday morning. At least everyone will have them for the riding season. I am so sorry this took so long to get cranking, but at last we are there!

Business member cards will also be going out in the mail!
If anyone has any problems with the renewal dates etc. just give me a call and we can fix it.

A couple more weeks and we should have all of the new info we have been working on up too.

We have links for over 300 Canadian Motorcycle Clubs/Chapters as soon as Ali can get the coding figured out we should have them visible for you and hopefully figure out what happened to our general links directory.

Have a great day and if you live in a part of the country where you can ride - I'm jealous - we still have at least three feet of snow! It sucks!
