Hey BigUgly. I'm in Truro Heights. I've had my E-Glide for 3 years now and love it. Where are you and are you going to attend the Bike Blessing in Victoria Park in May? Facebook notice is all I can find. https://www.facebook.com/events/1772691366296268/
It's May 7th. I've been to a few but not since I got the Harley. Been working most Saturdays and miss it. Should be able to make it this year...

What do you ride?

WOW! Opposite ends of the Continent there. I'm betting your riding weather is a heck-of-a lot better than mine right now...

One of our best road trips on the bike was riding to NS and taking the whole coastal route around the province including the Cabot Trail.
It's a beautiful place for sure. I moved here from Newfoundland when I was 21 and I've been here now for nearly 40 years. I love it here. The 4wheel drivers actually watch out for bikers in my area.
Thanks for the welcome...

I want to thank everyone for the warm welcome. Been working 12 hour shifts this week (vacation time) and working on my Wife's washing machine when I got home. Haven't had a lot of time on the computer.

Appreciate the hellos from all over the Continent...

I'm down in Shelburne. I'm thinking about making the run to Truro...all depends of kids and weather. I bought my 95 Road King last year around the same time that the blessing was happening but couldn't make it there (can you believe I couldn't find my damned helmet?).

HAH... I can believe that... A buddy of mine who is originally from Cape Breton but was living in Newfoundland for the past 20 years or so is just now moving to the Valley. I think near the Digby area. I told him about the Blessing date also so maybe we can all have a bit of a meet and greet
