i would do that as a figure 8 and hit highway 24 twice if you have the time. not sure what direction would be best on a bike.
Cancer, Before I die
If you do a figure 8 you get to hit it both directions :) If I had unlimited time I'd avoid the Coquihalla entirely - I find that ride boring as hell unless you are prepared to gamble on radar and really wind it out. Having had a close encounter with a moose (!) near Merritt years ago, I personally wouldn't recommend that either. Hwy 3 to Princeton, 5A to Aspen Grove, then 5A up past Nicola Lake to Kamloops has a lot of nice sections.
I am not free I have more just different parts of my body now.
whatever is going on with the thing growing on my kidney is till doing whatever it was doing last check which was a few months ago. I refused any treatment and going on living my life till I die. I get some kidney pains from time to time but I do not worry about it or take any drugs for it.
this thing called motorcycles is keeping me happy and my mind off of what is down the road.
Of course anyone with a bike can join me on any ride more the better. Even if it is just around town or whatever.
i'll have my bike plated in a week and will definitely come out for some riding with you. have you done any riding in washington yet? there's some great day trips down there i could take you on.

Is it insensitive for me to suggest you keep a copy of your diagnosis on hand for the possibility you get pulled over at 40 over? Would have to be a real dickhead to impound the bike of a guy who may not have much time left!

Over Stevens pass to central Washington State is a nice drive. You can go to Grand Coulee dam. Dry Falls is less than an hour south and it's a gorgeous vista.

Ross , try manuka honey on that . . . Srsly
Ya Ross any good health food store should have it . Do a little research . I have seen the stuff work miracles .
Got my Dr on the road yesterday . Went pemberton , over the Duffy to lillooet , up the bridge river to the carpenter lake dam . Up and over Mission Hill to seton , then over the highline to d'arcy then home . Great weather , bike was great . . . Love that thing .
that sounds like a good fun route. :banana:
Not on the bike you are riding - the best part of what he described is gravel. Flat, high speed, dirt-track style gravel granted, but it would seriously suck on a sportbike.
If you are heading south, make sure you take a short detour to Chuckanut Drive south of Bellingham. It's a short section down the coast, years since I've ridden it, but from what I recall it had some of the tightest, smoothest corners outside of a track I ever recall riding.
where do I get this manuka honey? do I rub it all over me?
Pls videotape yourself applying it thus, then post to the internet and profit. $$$
it rubs the lotion on it's skin…
