...You look like characters from the original Star Wars. I love it. Gotta ride no matter what.
Need to photoshop a Giant Fathom in there.

But next weeks weather creates the question: which tires for slush?Current weather forecast - yes "gotta ride... but I think I will wait until next week (looks weird, but normal for this area):

I've never been to Coombs, but I've managed projects all over the island over the last 7 years.You're going from -20 on Saturday to +14 on Monday! WOW!
I live in Parksville, on Vancouver Island, and we've had almost two week of snow and I'm sick of it.
I hope we also get a temperature boost, so I can finally go for a bike ride.
Side note: the area I live in (Coombs) has so many people that are from Alberta that it's called 'Little Alberta'.
Unlike Calgary and @RandallS , it would be fortuitous if it we were to even hit the freezing mark here next week. I’m fine with that as it sure beats what we’ve had to endure over the past two weeks.You're going from -20 on Saturday to +14 on Monday! WOW!

I can’t imagine what it must be like during peak tourist season there, but what a place to call home and a kayaker’s paradise. We have friends (retired farmers) who relocated to Parksville a number years ago and also relatives in Sidney and Victoria. Hope to return back there soon as we have a ton of fond memories.I live1.5 km from Goats on the Roof. It's unbelievably busy in the summer months.

Several times each year during trips out to the island, it was tradition that we would stop by the Coombs Old Country Market for fresh pies and marvel at the roof top goats.

These are special Vancouver Island goats......they can jump REALLY high.How do the goats get on the roof? Last time I checked they can’t fly.
In the summer. We have had big snow here and the conditions are excellent.@Bubba zanetti Ski conditions at Red Mountain and Whitewater must be super right now. Do you bike there?
I skied there a lot in 70s and 80s. Did many stupid things, especially at Red. Had to eat at the Colander at least once per trip.In the summer. We have had big snow here and the conditions are excellent.
