Default Mascot went to Canada

The Mascot was a little tired of sitting still, so me and my pal Larry rode it up to Peace Arch Park up on the border in Blaine. As the pics show, the Mascot did indeed cross the border, if only by inches per the pics. For the technician, the latitiude was 49* 00' 7.64" N. and 122* 45' 21.61" W. Included is a view of the "Sisters" which haven't been visible for awhile. Larger pics will be posted on my website.

Cool! Keep it moving![8D] A technical crossing of the border is better than none! I wonder whatever happened to the idea of moving it up to Alaska, and then back down for Sturgis? No takers? I guess it would take a lot of cooperation and dedication to move it that far north. So, where's Yellowtang gonna move it to once he gets it? Just curious.

I'd like to see it in the Dallas/Fort Worth, TX area, but it's got a lotta movement up north yet, before it reaches this far south...like September or October? That's the tentative "plan" anyway!

Once I get it, I am planing on moving it East to Spokane, Wa. Of course after the mascot gets to make its debut at our local dealer!
