    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Rob (AZR) and Glenn (eddie21) and I went took off from Victoria Saturday morning to head up Island. Rob could only go as far as Campbell River (Salmon capital of the world!) then had to head back home. Glenn and I went on to Gold River, where we stayed over night at the Ridgewiew motel. http://goldriverbc.com/
1st pic we stopped to wipe our visors of the pea soup we rode through...not fun.

As you can see we are truly blessed to live on such a beautiful Island! It's important to get out and explore where you live and not take it for granted. And to think...all right in our backyard.
Thanks to Rob for joining us yeterday. Your bike is running awesome, hard to keep up to! And thankd Glenn for a great ride and some cheap laughs thanks to MacGruber!!!lol:D
 
Great pictures Trevor...As for the guy on the roof, as an hvac tech who is often up there, I can personally attest to the fact that people dont look up much...
