Welcome 2011 Riding Season

My bike has been in gear for a week already, now it's time to get my butt in gear and update the Blog

The riding time may have been reduced (darn white stuff) since my last blog but not CAV activity.

I did get my first ride in, (with Bear and Ultraman) on the date 1/1/11. Was a little wet but a January ride is a ride.







.

A day later the white stuff came and the wheels were parked.
Our (Juno) weekly meetings continued, planning more events, telling stories and raising money for our supported charities (Tony Stacey Centre and this year Childrens Wish Foundation) through 50/50's.

Next was the Bike show in TO. We car pooled there and were treated to a good show that also had a CAV booth and many military awareness displays.

A few more weekly meetings then the 1st annual Juno Pool tournament with more fun and fundraising.

More meetings then the Red Nose Banquet. What a great way to give back while showing a CAV presence.

Then the 3rd annual Juno (this year a few from Vimy too !!) Bowling. With supper before and Karaoke afterward it was a full night. With all the activity we also raised over $200 doing a draw for a hand-made stain glass of a motorcycle and doing 50/50.

March comes around and so does the 1 CAV exec meeting. It is always a treat to hear Trapper and other honoured guests give inspirational testimonials and be told how well the CAV is doing and how much good we are doing for others.

Mid month also brought enough warm weather that I managed to get a full week of riding in. Chilly and frosty in the morning riding to work but on the ride home enjoyed high single digit temperatures. 8km to get to work in the mornings but a couple nice afternoons it took 40km to get home.

What topped everything off was my daughter joining the CAV

Congrats NutMeg

Looking forward to seeing all of you at the many good events this year.
