      I don't suppose there's a train that runs from there up to you? We could have an impromptu, ad hoc 'safety meeting."

      Right now, West New York is in New Jersey, and East New York is in Brooklyn. Maybe Greenland will become East East New York, and Vancouver Island will be West West New York!

      Look out, we're comin' to get ya!
      You might want to check your geography.

      He lives on an island, in the ocean. Also, states are a bit bigger out here.

      You could take the train, or fly, to Seattle and take the ferry over to Victoria.
      Don't forget your passport.

          I've gone to about 10 rallies in the west starting with one in Yosemite in 2008. Met lots great people, lots of great rides and a more than a few campfires, beers and tall tales. Even hosted a rally in 2014. And yes Trevor if you do something and the stars align properly I'll show up. Maybe even show up anyway. LOL.

            I had a great time at your rally! In 2014 I had only been back on a bike for a couple years....since then I have learned a great deal about the great riding in BC....and know of routes and places to stay. I'm going to start a plan.

                  Mountain States.... John Day.... where have those days gone? Would be great to get something like that going again!

                  PNW out of reach for me now sadly. You might be up for a ride SE corner to NW corner of the US Trevor, but that’s nuts lol

                  It's smoke that make electronic components work.
                  Every time I've let the smoke out by mistake, they never work again.
