We had an non-essential travel ban here i BC until June 15th....I got my second vaccine back in May so I decided to go ahead...apparently it's ok to travel in BC as long as you are from another province...lol
I planned the trip back in January and we had originally 18 guys that went down to 12 because some were not comfortable travelling...
Anyway I decided to leave a week early on my own and meet the guys later....week on the road by myself..so nice.
I took the 7am ferry and my wife got up to take this pic at 6am...first big ride since my accident and on my new GSXS1000F
New Givi bags worked great. And of course I had a new helmet painted to match my bike lol
Day one I rode to Osoyoos BC...it's our version of a desert...it was 37 (100) degrees but I had a pool...stayed there for two nights and did a day ride the next day...
Outside my hotel
And of course a trip for me wouldn't be complete without to getting a performance award certificate...lol
The guy was super nice and totally interested in my bike and the upgrades...asked lots of questions...we talked about his boat etc...30 min he says I have to give you a ticket....I was doing 127 in a 100 and he said "I will give you the minimum....$138 and 3 points...I asked for a warning and he said "can't do that"....then he said..."I suppose if I asked you for proof of insurance, you wouldn't be able to provide that"?...I said...sure "it's under my seat"...he says "I suppose if I asked you for proof of insurance, you wouldn't be able to provide that"?....lol...I said "oh no I can't"....he wrote me a ticket for no papers...$81 and no points...$56 if I pay it in 30 days.
