Below is a shot of the Westside – an area that we know well and usually go riding ( a bit farther South I think ) – Not heard from Roy so maybe he got out, Caroline also lives in Fintry and Doug Nimmo has a home there as well. – We hope they are all safe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Like a lot of people we have been monitoring the situation – watching the reports and also checking out the back window. – but I had to shake my head when they had a fire Official giving his update on all the latest news on tv – he must have got his training in the White house – he yakked a lot but really said nothing that made much sense to the average consumer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile over in the Fraser canyon – Stan has been put on evacuation alert with an RCMP car parked at the end of his driveway<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We have heard from Caroline in Fintry and she says they are OK – Doug Nimmo who also has a place in Fintry has made it out South.. – No word on Roy as yet in Valley of the Sun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

============================================<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Motorcycle World – the answer to our last quiz was Marc Colome – not a tough one – all our usual bloggers got that one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Quiz today – Who is this “Scrambler”?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
