Moving to Alberta in a couple of weeks, when can I start rippin it up?

Already started in Calgary and warming up in Edmonton.

All depends on the year, but lately it's been starting earlier and earlier. And pushing later and later.

Where abouts are you headed?

Plannin on Lethbridge.

That's far enough south that you could probably be out riding today. As an added bonus the site owner TMW Mike lives in Calgary and it is a large center for motorcycles in general, with more then a couple of members from TMW floating around there. There will be plenty of people to ride with if you have the inclination.

They have been riding in Lethbridge for weeks. The secret is not getting blown off of your bike by the wind

I live on a island in the North Atlantic,I think I can take the wind But ridin today...sweeeeet,here there is too much snow,salt,crud, very messy. Can't wait for a hot prairie summer...Woohoo

Well then, here's a pre-welcome to Alberta!!! Yes, there's a bunch of TMW types in Calgary, Edmonton and surrounding areas so hopefully we'll all get to meet up sometime. Are you moving for work or originally from around there?

I was born in Sask,grew up in northern Manitoba, lived in Calgary for a year after I got out of the army,spent most of the last 20 in B.C. so yeah, I'm a stubblejumpin prairie boy. I live in NL because I work offshore, Semi-Submersible-Drill-Rig, and on the platform. I will continue to work here(live in Alberta,work in NL )might look for something out there,have not decided yet,but miss the Rockies,the western mindset,little things that we used to take for granted livin out west.

Well then, I guess it's welcome BACK

Lots of oily things happening in the Fort Mac area and not to be stopping anytime soon. Any of what you do similar or transferable? hmmm, would the pay even be close I wonder.
