... Who have we not heard from?? ….... well me of course!!! The tales of Canadian twisties have long tantalized my dreams. I can no longer resist the land where gasoline is sold in liters and paid for with loonies. I missed SPLASH, but I WILL make Border Raid!!! Reservations, passport, new rear tire, fluids changed, just waiting to leave now. As long as funjimmy promises not to deep fry any spuds I should be OK. See you all in a few short weeks. |

Jimmy, actually after posting I thought about it and am really looking forward to seeing the Spudman! It's been way to long since we have seen him. Spudman, no crap, I will behave I promise! |

Loni + crap = very little crap And yes you better believe it, I will be there. Besides, Bob's mustache is more scary than Loni, and probably bigger too. It will be good to see the ugly old faces again and to meet some new ugly ones. I'm just glad your letting me tag along on the Border Raid this year. Looking forward to running some triple digit kilometers with everyone ... that's like 20mph isn't it. |

Jimmy I think he's going to scare me off! Ugly "old" faces....hmm, no, no, no I promised I would be good.... I am dyin here...what are your travel plans for getting up to Whistler Spudman? |

Travel plans to Whistler: Planning on traveling some of the roads from Border Raid 09 on the US side. Up through Grand Coulee, Twisp, Ross Lake and running into the I5 slab just north of Burlington. If the OR/WA riders are traveling together, I could time my route to intercept the group. And for selfish reasons: I only plan on spending one night in Vernon. The lunch stop at Kaslo gets me almost halfway to home, so I was going to part company after lunch on Sunday and head south. Let me know if an I5 hookup is feasible. |

Hey Spud, Glad you're going to join the Merry Misfits on our trip north. Loni and I are planning on spending Wednesday night in either Burlington or Bellingham. Would be great to meet you along the way. Chris |

I have a wedding Illinois to attend, unfortunately. Poor planning on the nephew's part. To see Spud alive and kicking would almost be worth the wrath of "she who rules all". Almost. Next year. On a real bike, hopefully. You guys have a ball! |

Spud, you haven't seen Loni lately. Here's a candid photo taken at Splash after she had a couple of Margaritas:

Ya gotta love ALL of me!! |

I guess you're right Loni. That string thong does make you look like you've gained a couple of pounds. My tryout for Ronald McDonald was a bust! Glad you were there to record my disapointment. |

I still love ya Shotgun. Good lookin lets and all! Your right the sting thong does make me look I have gained a few pounds but on the good side the few extra pounds looks like it helped in the BOOB area!! |

I know I'm late with this, but with a little prompting from Galen I'm thinking about attending Border Raid. The deciding factor at this late date is whether I can share a room. I don't actually need a bed.... my back is so bad I sleep in a chair these days. So, If anyone can spare chair space, please let me know here or on Facebook. Thanks. If it doesn't work, y'all have a safe and fun ride! |

Trailer being built, chock and ramps in the garage, bike clean & ready... leaving for a wedding in Portland on Saturday and up to Vancouver on Sunday. See ya'll on Border Raid! If any of you Canadians have extra room to leave a 5x9 bike trailer for a couple weeks let me know. I think we can keep it at our place in YVR but not totally sure how it's going to work out so may need a backup plan. Thx! and Capt - it will be good to see you again and have you on the ride! Whistler here we come! MGinBend |
