One might start to get suspicious about the true nature of these so-called “safety meetings”

The things you have to do to get your buddies to come over to shovel snow. I bet you don't have a CBC Daybreak sweat shirt either. Happy New Year my friend.'84 GS750EF (Oct 2015 BOM) '79 GS1000N (June 2007 BOM) My Flickr site http://www.flickr.com/photos/soates50/

Remember what I was saying about the eccentric collectors and collections on the Island? Well I got an invitation to see something very special in nearby Sooke.
First an article about the man
Among the cars Forbes is most proud of is his Canadian-only 1958 Pontiac Parisienne convertible and matching American-built 1958 Pontiac Bonneville convertible, which is awaiting restoration. Although both cars look alike, they are very different. The Parisienne was built in Canada on a Chevrolet platform, borrowing its frame and mechanical components from its sister car. The American Bonneville is larger because it is built on an Oldsmobile platform and is powered by a unique and much larger 371 cubic inch engine. Forbes’ rare example has factory tri-power carburetion. Ted Forbes bought his first car at the age of 14. Growing up on a farm in Souris, Manitoba, he loved machinery and cars specifically.

Vancouver Island would seem to have more vintage vehicle enthusiasts per capita than anywhere else on the planet. Except maybe Cuba?Believe in truth. To abandon fact is to abandon freedom.
