In the meantime I can only see properly out of my left eye so I am not riding my bike til I get this fixed. Hopefully it won't be to long as he says it is probably fixable with a laser.

Glad you had a good ride, the weather was certainly great !
Yikes. :shock:

I hope it gets better soon.

Ride to Boston Bar Wednesday September 30

Meet at the Petro Canada on Brunette at Blue Mountain (near Hwy 1).

We will leave at 10am with full gas tanks.

The plan is to ride over the Golden Ears Bridge (if nobody objects to the tolls) then Hwy 7 to Hope for a coffee stop and bathroom break...
Then the Fraser Canyon to Boston Bar for lunch. (don't expect 5 star dining. :lol: )
After lunch, back down the canyon to Hope and then possibly Hwy 1 to get home.

Fuel can be got at Hope or Boston Bar...
This time of the year the weather can be very changeable, so pack rain gear just in case we get rained on while out...

Cancelled if the day starts off raining...

We stopped in at the Blue Moose Cafe in Hope for coffee. Very good.


The restaurant in Boston Bar where we went for lunch today.

We only got about ten minutes of rain today. :mrgreen: It was quite chilly in the canyon. But the hot chocolate we had in Abbotsford on the way back helped.

:D

There weren't even any traffic problems coming home.

B2C has the power to turn LOTS of things blue...... :shock: :laughing:
still recovering - back to crutches, then walking with a stick, then running - then hopefully riding again!
