Nice Surprise Today
« on: January 27, 2021, 02:57:27 PM »
The Canadian Vintage Motorcycle Group <CVMG.ca> publishes a very nice, monthly magazine. Had a look at the Jan. issue today and spotted my 1970 cb750K0 on the cover!

 My key fob has a four leaf clover, otherwise it looks just like mine. That's awesome getting a cover.

Cool Beans!

Do you know Cam and Penny there in the Toronto area? I met them in Maine at the start of the 2018 Motorcycle Cannonball Run.

Congratulations, hey.  Great looking bike. 

Off subject, but we just got Netflix with the new television we bought ourselves for Christmas.  I got hooked on the series, "Rust Valley Restorers", which I believe was filmed in British Columbia.  I have watched all three seasons and really enjoyed the amount of vintage vehicles presented.  It was interesting to see the difference in names for the same vehicle depending on country.  I understand it may be renewed for a fourth season, I hope so, my Wife hates the program so I have at least an hour of peace and quiet while it is on.....
