My cousin and his wife arrive here in Victoria this coming Saturday. On Monday we leave for this trip for Banff Alberta. This will be a very special trip as my cousin Danny is responsible for getting me hooked on motorcycles when I was a kid. he is ten years older than me and when he was 15 he got an old Honda 90 to ride around in the feild by his house, he would put me on the tank. Then he moved up to street bikes and I still remeber riding on the tank of his Honda 750four while holding onto the middle of the bars with a helmet that was clearly too big for me. When he was still a teenager my Dad co-signed a bank loan for Danny to buy a new Honda 750. The only stipulation was that come the time I wanted to buy a new motorcycle and needed a loan, Danny would have to co-sign for me too. Which he did when I was 17 buying a new (what else) 83 Gs 750e. Any way my cousin still rides a 1977 kz 1000 he bought new along with a bought new 84 500 ascot and a 2008 Concourse. We are taking the wives with us on my 1100 and my 750. We will cover 2352kms (1600 miles) of some of the most beautilful roads in North America over 7 days. Staying in nice hotels and even a Hot Springs.
What makes this so special is that I have not rode with my cousin in almost 30 years and have not even seen him in ten years. Oh and this will be the first time he has ever been on a plane! Yikes! I look forward to sharing with you guys pics and stories to come.
Thanks,
Trevor

Maybe I will go buy one of those "cooling" vests.
