| Training Wheels Joined: Jul 2008 From: Kennewick Washington I Ride: 05 BMW R1200RT, 05 BMW K1200S | We were coming back to the US at Peace Arch crossing aka. I-5 in a pickup, 4 cars in front of us were some sport riders with Oregon plates. They got waved over to the inspection area and were emptying out there gear and the guard looked pissed. I have no idea what was said or what tripped the sudden inspection. It was clear they were giving all 3 bikes the hard look. The time to have problems with authority is not at the border. Or maybe they were in to hassles and inconvience. |

| Training Wheels Joined: Mar 2009 From: eugene, or I Ride: 2003 Sportster, 2009 Heritage | the wife and I were up there the 3rd week of August (during the smoke!) everybody told us to head over to Lumby and Nakusp, great riding. There is a little deli/bakery in Lumby named "Ida's" that sells a disgusting-lookin' black sausage that is worth the stop. And a little shop in Big Valley that sells great cinnanon rolls, Borsht at a coffee shop in Lillooet. Getting hungry. We went east to Calgary & Drumheller, up to Edmonton and Jasper, to Kamloops, Lillooet, Whistler, Nanaimo and crossed back from Victoria to Port Angeles. Pity to see the single lane wood bridges disappearing west of Lilloet, though. Great Trip! |

One of these days I am going to take a motorcycle trip through the Canadian Rockies and Banff! And...What is it about the customer service in that town? Wow the establishments in the US (especially restaurants) need to come up for a lesson or two. People are always so nice.... |
