I just got word......my new bike and I are not only in the same country, but, in the same province!

I just got word that my bike has arrived at the dealer and they are just double checking that all of the parts have arrived with it!

I would never admit that there was a little tear just starting to form as I read the email with the news......Ha Ha!

Now I just have to wait a few weeks to finalize some paperwork and hope that the weather is good in about 20 Mar.

donetracey - 2009-03-04 12:41 PM I'm thinking, Canada? ("province" being the clue) - what province, Gerry? Likely not BC since I have been riding at least once every week or two all winter (except for the white Xmas). Good Weather to me means a dry road - and it does rain every now and then in BC.... Anyway - if you update your profile - you can add your location - and quiet down nosy old farts like me.

Hey Don

 Actually, I am in BC, Comox Valley, Vancouver Island.......I have gotten to ride a couple of times over the winter. I'm really hoping to be able to pick up my bike in Langley around 20th of Mar......depending on the weather.

I got here 3 winters ago from Nova Scotia. The first winter people told me "this weather?? Hasn't happened in 20 years, we never get snow or at least by lunchtime its gone......" The second winter I hear "this weather is just a fluke, never happen again......" Now this year I didn't listen, because after 3 years of snowy type winters, its no longer unusual.........its now the norm!!!!.......Ha Ha!!

Anyway, like I mentioned I am going to pick up the bike in a few weeks, it doesn't really matter what the weather will be as it is always sunny and warm in my world......

donetracey - 2009-03-04 7:45 PM KEWL!!! Good dealership in Langley - my guys. Mention my name - they will quiver in fear and treat you like royalty..... Or shoot you. You decide.... We get over to the island a few times each summer - let's try to connect. Just PM me.

 Ditto Don, let me know when you're in our neck of the woods. Like I mentioned I will be at Sea to Sky 20 or 21 Mar to pick up my bike.

I went to the bike show this year and then stopped by the shop on my way home, to order the new bike of course. I had not been at the new shop and found it quite funny to see who their neighbors were......
