2,400 miles through the Canadian Rockies and Washington Cascades!

As some of you may recall every year my friend Jimmy (whom I grew up with in New Jersey. Poor bastard lives there but comes out every year to ride with me out west), and I take a vacation together.

This year he flew to seattle and rented a Bad Azz Harley Fat Boy. awesome bike. I rode the Gold Wing to meet him just north of the border in BC, in Weld-Land:-)



Goldie just west of Jasper National Park. The weather you see here was typical of a couple of days we had. Rainstorms with or without thunder and sometimes hail, with patches of semi-clearing. Towards the middle of the ride it became sunny and warm, and we were grateful. Even in the rain, the ride was amazing, and we kept warm and safe. The Gold Wing is an amazing travelling motorcycle. Dare I say the best?



A tour jet boat ride we took in Blue River, BC to see grizzly bears. We saw quite a few, and the boat ride was fun. Still, the 40 MPH run back to the cabin in a driving hailstorm was pretty painful on the face LOL!



Does a bear ____ in the woods? Turns out the answer is 'Yes'.

A very cold FastDoc on the jet boat.



Goldie on a wet, slick typical wooden bridge common in this area.



The bikes outside the Moose Bar in Valemont, BC.
