Me in the mountains.

This is me and my Interceptor somewhere between Rocky Mountain House and the Jasper/Banff highway. Yes, it's cold.


These are some photos I took at Race City in Calgary.

Motorcycle Sunday

This is a photo of some friends at Motorcycle Sunday in Onoway.


Lumby gas station

We stopped here after the Needles to Lumby run, on our way to Kelowna. What a ride!

Buell

This the second Buell I saw in person. They should have made them look like this in the first place. Well, except for the sheepskin seatcover.


XR750 streetbike

This XR actually gets ridden almost every week.The owner also owns a Suzuki VX800.


Don't do this.

Mud is for quads and dirtbikes. I found this out after riding to the Trials Nationals. They were held just off a "highway" leading to the Forestry Trunk road.


Drag racing at Bud Park.

I burnt my clutch and every second tooth fell off his back sprocket, but we were able to ride home.

This guy came into the shop looking for a speedo drive for this bike. It had Dymag rims and the electronic drive had been replaced with an aluminum spacer. Apparently it had belonged to some Eighties racer. He bought it for $2600! The rims are worth more than that! It also has Lockheed calipers, and Fox shocks.

It's been sold again! The new owner had it in for tires and rear shock mods.


Flyin' Fred Merkel

This is a Honda ad from 1984. It's pretty cool to know that when my bike was new, it dominated superbike racing. A healthy appetite for camshafts was beside the point.
