Talked to him last night. He wants to wait until his chemo is over; it is leaving him pretty weak. Rest assured there will be many pics and some vids of this ride when it takes place. I am going to try to make a dvd of some of our toy-run parties and "last ride of the season" parties, as well as pics from some of our other adventures. I expect I will be hollering "HELP!! when it comes to this; most of the vids are on VHS.

 If it is not too late how about a vid of the ride into Barkerville, and remember take your pan with you just in case you get time to look for the big one.

A good friend of close to 40 years, whom I have ridden many a long mile with, recently found out he has lung cancer. Doctors have given him 2 years tops. Surgery is out of the question, as it would not help. So, Bob has a bucket list. On his list is going to an historic mining town called "Barkerville". (Google it; it is quite the bit of B.C. pioneer history) Anyway, for various reasons, every time we have gotten together and planned to ride to Barkerville, (it is a road to ride; 50 miles of twisty, mountainous highway) something has prevented us from making that ride. As he is quite weak, but still loves to ride, I am planning to load both my bike and trike up, pick him up, drive to Quesnel, which is about 50 miles from Barkerville. With Bob on the trike, and a slow easy ride, we will complete this one item from his bucket list. Wish us luck.
