Re: Scooter ride
Hi Alvin, nice to meet you at the meeting. I fixed up Graham's account and emailed him but have not heard back. Next time you speak to him, can you get him to drop me a line either here on the board or at jeffthemod@hotmail.com?Alvin wrote:Hello My name is Alvin and I have a 1980 P200E my friend Graham and I would love to go on a ride but Graham ,who has a PK 50 premix was just wondering about the fuel issue.

Update
I have a feeling that some of you might be thinking that this ride is too far for let say a vintage bike or what not or new bike. The ride is only maybe 60 or 70km tops. We are going to try to ride together in a group and see how that goes. I don't know about you but this might be our only chance to go on a longer type ride this year. I understand if you have legitimate plans that day, so the meeting point for us is Edmonton at least will be West Side somewhere, hopefully close to a gas station.
Well I'm considering routes down there right now, 2A was suggested but I would rather go through Devon,Calmar way. Any other thoughts???
List of things to bring
Swimtrunks/Swimsuits
Towels
Cooler/Beverages
Sunscreen
Sunglasses
Rain gear incase (This ride is cancelled if it's raining that day)
Food, (you can buy some there I'm sure.)
Money
Etc. Etc.

2A doesn't make much sense. I agree that Devon, Calmar, etc is the way to go. After Calmar, it depends on which end of the lake you are going to. 795 to get south or on to Thorsby and 778 to get to the north end.
Rick is completely right in saying it is a short ride.
I wish I was coming but the Daughter had final say in when we were leaving.

I figure we could meet around 9:00 am if that's not too early for some, just need to look at some maps to find some good paved roads to get there. I'll work on it today. Weather should be ok not too hot not too cold but that can change in a second. I'll post route later. Once I have the route then we will pick the meet up spot.
Ride
Ok so we are going to meet at Callingwood Gas Station at 9:00 am, I think it's a shell. It's Approx location 178ST and south of Whitemud Drive, Small Strip mall area. Just follow 178st south till you find it.
I got the best route picked out from google maps.
178St South which turns into Lessard Road, Across Anthony Henday, South on 199St. Right on 23 Ave., to HWY 60. Travel South through Devon. Right at HWY 39 to Calmar, South on 795, then right on 616 to Pigeon Lake. This is the fastest route, hopefully we won't hold up too many people on the road. These are all paved roads as far as I know.
See you there. Nobody will run out of gas we can stop in Devon and Calmar for fills.
Cheers
