=======================================

We had a message from Paul Gronow to say that the “Boomer” memorial Trial/event was in fact really well attended here is a pic showing the huge crowd who came out for the celebration ( Check out that really nice new VMC Clubhouse – complete with Oz flag)

Paul also mentioned that 80 year old Gary Nordstrom, rode the same TY 250 that he competed on in our FIM Trial back in 1975. – You can read more about this great event, by clicking on the VMC website.

===========================================

Is this the ultimate type of motorcycle experience? – maybe the Rocky Mountains in Alberta.

Below is a shot I took of Paul and an American rider traversing a rocky landslide high in the Mountains of BC

==========================================

it’s been quite a stormy week, weatherwise in the Interior, and the forecast is a bit uncertain for the weekend.

==========================================

We had a call from Pete Bustin yesterday, a good long chat about riding at Ioco with his lads recently – Pete rides one of our TRS estart demo bikes.

Below is Pete riding at one of the Stan Bakgaard Shows in Kelowna.

Here is a shot of another of the “old gang” from the past – Steve Day still rides really well, can’t remember if I took this pic at Scotch Creek a few years ago.
