I'm thrilled beyond belief at the numbers planning to make the rally.
It won't be long now!

Kris & Rick
My buddies bailed on me. So I will be riding solo. The wives wouldn't give them hall passes. Needless to say I told them to grow a pair, I write my own hall passes (then forge her signature). I changed my route and will be meeting you in Colville Saturday night and will ride up to Coleman/Canmore with the group. I have already made my reservations. Steve has volunteered to be my roomie...........shhhhh don't tell him you know what OK BD this is where you jump in....this was an easy lob!

Updated confirmed attendance list....
Rickyboy- 1 Netnorske- 2 Hammer- 1 Schoeney- 1(leaving early) Idaho- 1 Mustangman- 1 (and maybe a friend) micmicdu- 2 Chili- 2 Lomax- 2 Petenomad- 2 (him and his wife on seperate bikes) Canuckrider- 1 Leadbelly- 1 (for a brief time anyways) Ojo de Aquila- 2 (plus maybe a friend) Darksider- 1 Replay13- 1 (a day late) Grizzdog- 2 (him and his wife on seperate bikes) Voyager- 2 JJ- 2 Bdog- 1 gv550- 2 Total People So Far...30 Okay...with Greg's kitty-whipped buddies bailing out....that brings us back to 30, a very respectable number. Still holding out hope for you Charlie...at least until the fat lady sings..... My two possible friends bailed too, but I never counted them on the list...so no harm no foul. Four weeks and counting. We'll be in Canmore before you know it...but not before I take my legendary status to Alaska next week and put a hurt on some Deshka River King Salmon....!

Alrighty...we have two more confirmed attendees...Al and his wife Karen from Langley, BC. Rickyboy ran into them at a Chevron station and gave them all the info about the VBA and the Rally..... They will be riding their own bikes (he has a Nomad, she a Honda Shadow) and camping close by...looking forward to meeting them as well as those I have not yet had the pleasure...!!

Man !!! this is great !!! I couldn't be more happier. If we are all committed, those are great numbers.
I've been on holidays at the "new home" and been working my a$$ off gettin er done. So let me tell all of you I can't wait to go for a ride to Canmore. Looks as though I'll be riding with "hammer" from the coast. My plans changed again and I decided to bring the snow sled trailer up with the truck which meant I'd be driving back to the coast with the truck to pick up the Nomad. If Ross {"darksider" } sees this,.... get in touch with me via email or something. Last I heard we were all riding to Canmore together. Hope all is well !!! Ride safe everyone !!

Kris
Did you read the new Rider magazine?. Article about a WA/Canada border run. Mentions Benny's Colville Inn and the route from Colville to the border crossing we will use. It was great timing as I will also use some of the info on HWY 97 for my return route.
