Met some wonderful people. A little too much of an icon here to really let my hair down...neat people, very interesting lives, very intertwined (there's less people within 6 hours ride of here than in Sunnyvale.) And, as Toasterhead once said about experimental brain chemistry, sometimes the experience is behind the modifiers.
On the way north, the visits were great, but the amount of attention I have to pay to the road prohibits sightseeing. I still found out about gold mining in BC, the gold rush of 1860's, the Mile Houses, and the pattern of tourism.
Nothing in the tourist front is open up here for another 2 weeks. The ferry goes to summer schedule in June 10th timeframe. There's a chance that BC will wildcat strike all services tomorrow to support the healthcare workers; I don't know whether to support them or ride immediately out.
When I return, I'll get the suit together so that I can fight wherever I go. I'll take care of the land problems (Got two calls about that this morning.) Don't know when I'll come north, but it will happen.
I have no idea what that means. Unknown road at 80 mph means watch the road, right, get the line plotted, execute. Time to destination means ride all possible hours until I get there. Ok, did the ride. Ok, made it; saw the river, and the fact that all the local parks are closed until Canadian long weekend (may 18?).
You saying I'm not enough of a traveler to need an Aerostich? I don't know what you mean, and I ask to see...if it's insulting.
Adventure local and decision.
