Great Scott Liane, between you sand Mr. Keith Park accumulation exagerration is some kinda national epidemic  . You should be using metric terminology anyway. Now stop it and return to reality 
jh
I wish I was an exaggeration John! Today we are supposed to get another 5 - 10 and it's supposed to be spring!

Friar's ride awaits you. I just rode over the pass between Kaslo and New Denver and it was INTOXICATING! I wish there could be a preamble to the Raid which we could all experience together at this time of year. I miss you all and look forward to seeing you back here in July! 
Live to love, love to live.

I know Z...and I am starting to get anxious! Just tying up loose ends with the New Grand and getting last touch ups on the logo so I can get the swag proofs going.
Brent - I appreciate the planning ahead...definitely helps me with more accurate planning and budgeting!

Once I get the touches up logo I send it to my vendor who will then send me the proofs of what the logo will look like on the shirts, etc.
Hence, swag proof!

We've got 4 feet of snow too... up in the mountains that is! Down here in the valley people are mowing their lawns. But I think rather than mow the lawn tomorrow I'll go for a ride. Maybe over to Nelson for lunch. Just trying to cheer you up, Mike with some happy thoughts!

So the good news is my bike is off the stand and fired up first shot on Saturday. The bad news is I did this and a blizzard ensued. Just can't win.
With a busy as hell week coming up, hoping to get my bike out for a ride next weekend!

I see you corrected that as I got an email where you posted 93 days and I thought to myself, you are gong to miss the Raid Mike! lol
I got the first images of the swag stuff with this year's logo. Looks awesome and no I am not posting it!
Things are coming along nicely and I am getting anxious and nervous!

One month left to get registered for the Kootenay Raid under the early bird price of $70 per person. After June 1, price increases to $80! Your early registration helps me with accurately ordering the shirts and other stuff for the event. Don't take the chance of having to wait for your swag, get your registration in now! 80 more days to go! Looking forward to seeing everyone! All info is on www.kootenayratraid.com
