Preamble

My first few postings will be a brief history of my motorcycles I have owned through the years and their highlights, starting from 1966 to 2014... 48 years of riding

My blog is design for:
1.) to make a book (photo album) of my motorcycle adventures. I will have this blog printed off into a coffee table top hard covered book.
2.) for the public to view and promote motorcycle riding through-out the beautiful country sides of British Columbia, Canada.

What is my appeal for riding a motorcycle?

... the freedom it provides; not boxed into a vehicle, more aware of your surroundings.

... to experience the "smell"... of a clover-field, hay-fields, freshly cut grass, of wet pavement just after a hot day, farmers fields, and more

... the sounds of life around you.

... to ride with friends experiencing the same problems, excitement, belonging to a group

Yes, motorcycles are dangerous... just two wheels on the pavement, other vehicles do not see you and have no respect for you, always exposed to the weather and road conditions, bugs on your teeth, sore butts, sore throttle hand, sore back, but it is all worth it... we are alive and doing what we like to do... ride............

July 10 2088 - Trip to Hundred Mile House and Williams Lake

Trip to to Hundred Mile and Williams Lake.
off to see Steve Havas and Val.

We took the Whistler Route, going through Lillooet, the up to Hundred Mile house.

Taking a bum break!



At the ranch
 We arrived at the Springhouse Guest Ranch in Williams Lake. This is where I used to live just before retiring, and moving to Switzerland. This was a GREAT place, met lots of neat people...took many of them on horse back rides... this is where I met Doris Hoevel, the lady I lived with in St. Gallen, Switzerland.

Hank and Eve - owner for Springhouse Ranch
 Eve introduced me to many of her guests at the ranch... some GREAT times to say the least!!

Steve and Val
Steve and Val live in One Hundred Mile House. They have a great little horse ranch.
