Allan's and Rick's Semi-Wonderful Ride In Beeeyoootiful BC.
Semi-wonderful because Allan's Buffalo ate its rectifier (and consequently the battery) on the third day of the ride and caused him to lose a couple of days and thus he had to retire from the ride early.
Uncle H2, however, continued on for a grand total of EIGHT camping days !!!
Selected pics from the trip can be viewed here:

Youre rubbing it in Rick with the lovely big island pics, and ive only got a YEAR now to wait to make the trip properly next time.
I'm a bit surprised you did not take any of the Sproat Lake region though..

very nice pictures ,look like you had a nice time Rick.
shame about Allans bike(next time you see Allan tell him he needs a hair cut)
won't your good lady accompany you on your trips?
my wife loves every minute on the bike but wont go camping.

Nope, John, she's lonnnngggggg past riding with me, let alone actually camping on a bike trip. She would NOT fare well on an 8 day trip on a motorcycle....even if we stayed in motels.
Soooo......this works out rather well because I'm not big on carrying a passenger.

Allan, I found the Cathedral Grove so interesting that I spent too much time there just wandering around taking pics of the trees and enjoying the cool shade. After that, I was scheduled to meet a guy in Nanaimo (from the KZ650 board) AND I still had to find a place to camp for the night......soooooo.....I just whizzed past Sproat Lake. Next year.....
