Hi, my names Pete Foster, I'm from Potter Heigham, Norfolk, England, I ride a Speed Triple, & also ride out in Alberta Canada, where I have a Bonneville SE. Just moved to Norfolk so real busy at the moment but would love to meet up with others for ride outs.
Hi and welcome..... It sounds like you have a great opportunity to ride in different parts of the world, can you explain the background.. Wessa
Hi, yep very lucky really, just retired & we've sold our house in Lincolnshire & moved to Norfolk. My sister's emigrated to Strathmore Alberta in Canada so I go every year on holiday. They are bikers so I got a Triumph out there to ride with them. Had a bike there for three years, we've been all over, we get to the Rocky mountains quite a lot, & we rode down to Sturgis for there 75th anniversary rally. I try & get over when the Kootenay Rat Raid is on as its a good rally & ride down to Nelson in BC.
Hi Pete, wow you really are at the end of the world there mate. I've worked in Great Yarmouth a few times doing survey jobs. Proper mans journey from Plymouth!! Welcome.
Very nice life style indeed, I'm am very jealous ............. I did some work in Canada a few years ago, so know how beautiful a country it is. Wessa
Welcome to the forum Pete,i'm heading over to BC this week to do a tour of the Rockies,we spend a night in Banff which is not too far from Strathmore..the roads look great
Hi, Dougie, yes Banff is really nice, if a little busy sometimes, loads of sights around there, recommend the lakes up there, if you like water!, there's some great roads around there too. Went that way last year & stopped at a friends house up there before heading down to Nelson to the RAT raid there. (Kootenay Rat Raid), look it up. We'll be over next month & are going to this years raid. (13th to 16th July). If your still over then it's well worth calling in. If you go on there site, I'm the guy on the banner photo with the cowboy hat on, far right of pic!.
