| Hey GG,
I may be up your way this Aug. with the GRiSO for the Cumberland Motorcycle roundup. I have been meaning to get the bike over to the island for a while. Would imagine some of the roads are quite good for riding.
Welcome and enjoy!

| Welcome GG. I was reminded how beautiful it is where you are (generally) located when we were up at Oak Bay and Shawnigan Lake School with the kids for a Rugby Jamboree. The family wagon just don't cut it... | |

| Thank you so much for the welcome!
Yes the island is beautiful and there are sooo many amazing rides around here. Being able to ride 10 months out of the year is pretty freaking great too!
If any of you are around the island for rides or tours and you see a GRiSO, good chance it's me cuz there definitely aren't many on the island, so come say hi!
Thanks again,
GG | |

| GG, Vancouver Island is indeed a beautiful place. My wife and I have been there a couple of times as she's attended a couple of teaching conferences in Mill Bay. While she sits in seminars all day, I explore the island. My favorite ride so far is the road from Campbell River up to Gold River. Awesome!

| Welcome. Love the Comox valley. I have family there, but have (sadly) never ridden up that way. I do need to get over to the Island some time. Great looking GRiSO. More of a Nero really! | |

| Yup, I did that one too, but I got behind a fish truck spewing stinky, rotten, fetid, gooey guppy guts all over the twisties so I had to rank the Campbell River to Gold River as number one. Always willing to try again though! --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]“Danger + Survival = Fun.” - Neil Peart[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] | |

definitely worth another try...but there are many on the island ...some are short and dead end but have great curves...ever try central Oregon ? John Day , Condon , Shaniko , Heppner, some of my favorites ... cheers Keener | |

| Yes! Great area. Here's another of my all-time faves, Lolo Pass, Highway 12 between Lewiston, Idaho and Missoula, Montana. [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.][You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] | |
