That parking lot is getting so full each year that last year I never met up with anyone.......

Can we come up with an area in the lot? Magpie are you going over the night before? Perhaps scoop room for 5-7 bikes out to the side of front doors?

I'm catching the 10:00am from Nanaimo so won't be there till noon

Perhaps a time to meet up in the bar for a beer at 1:00PM
Everyone yell SOHC at the stoke of one so we can find one another

I'm posting a photo of what I will riding.

Unless the gods shine on me and the planets line up, then listen for a loud shiny red thing

I'll be riding the CB550 Interceptor this year.
Should be easy to find.

754 · « **Reply #9 on:** April 09, 2009, 07:39:15 AM »

Maybe we should phone todd copan and request a honda sohc parking area, sure there will be at least 30 or more!

Anyone got the contact info, I need a table anyway.

Will try to wear a top breather cover around my neck on a cord, so its easy to spot me.. lol

Magpie · « **Reply #10 on:** April 09, 2009, 08:09:35 AM »

Derek,
My navigator is requesting we come on our candy orange ST1800/GoldWing. I'll be arriving there about 9 am. I'd better wear my red SOHC hat I guess just to prove membership.
Cheers,
Cliff.

Thanks Cliff for last years pics - I love the blue CB750 - very nice. Now we just need a group photo of yourself, 754, FunJimmy, and Derek!!

Have fun
cheers
Andy

Frank

Here's the home page: http://www.classicbikeswapmeet.com/home.html
or Todd Copan @ 604-299-0020

If you need a 550 engine to offer up to all the little bike owners, mine's for sale.

See you there.

Jimmy

Magpie · « **Reply #13 on:** April 09, 2009, 09:06:56 AM »

Hey Andy!
A group pic is a great idea! Looking forward to it. Yes the blue CB750 was very nice. I'd like to be able to have my painter get a shot of the paint to match it. It's a k3 or so dressed up in many K1 parts, all new I believe. He did a good job.
Cheers,
Cliff.

Well most of the Fairy's are in San Francisco

What you need is one of those boat thingies....like a Ferry.

It's only a 1 1/2 hour ride to the boarder, then another 20 mins to show.
No boat ride, it's still on the mainland.

Industrial Rat400f Killer · « **Reply #17 on:** April 09, 2009, 07:06:14 PM »

I can't imagine 2 hours on I-5 on my bike, that's why I was asking about the Ferries. There's no water bordering Canada anywhere? That's weird I thought there was.

seaweb11 · « **Reply #18 on:** April 09, 2009, 07:41:06 PM »

Uh, 2 hours..............it is a motorcycle right?

Ferries don't usually go from mainland to mainland unless there is no road.
You could ride for an hour and then take the Anacortes ferry to Vancouver Island "1 hour", and then ride for 1 hour and take the 2 hour Ferry back to Tsawwassen.

Or you could stop for breakfast when your ass gets sore after 60 mins

We will all give you a big hug as the only WA attendee.

Industrial Rat400f Killer · « **Reply #19 on:** April 09, 2009, 07:46:02 PM »

It's not the 2 hours it's the I-5 and a-holes that drive on it.
Here in Seattle we have ferries that go from main land to main land to avoid driving around the sound. I was hoping there was something similar up there.

seaweb11 · « **Reply #20 on:** April 09, 2009, 07:54:28 PM »

There is an alternative ocean route you can take up the coast. Check your maps, it's a much slower pace 2 lane hwy just past Everett or go East to #9 North for a bit. Lost of alternatives. All beautiful roads.

It's just time..........

I-5 isn't that scary...once you get out of Seattle, things get a lot nicer...I'll probably be riding up to the swap...
Hey Seaweb...I'll be the other WA attendee...its the only swap that I think is worth a 400 mile road trip...

cafe750 · « **Reply #23 on:** April 10, 2009, 02:15:11 PM »

Not quite sure yet, I may stay at my girlfriends in Ferndale saturday night, and head up early Sunday, but I'll let ya know!

754 · « **Reply #24 on:** April 10, 2009, 03:40:28 PM »
