April 13, 2012 PD13 Pics. AKA "who ownes this XJ?"

Hey guys,

Had a good time down in PD yesterday, glad Maxim-X and XJpilot didn't mind me hanging around I lost the rest of my crew, traveling in big groups seems like more trouble than it's worth sometimes. Anyways enjoy a few pics!

Nice pics of PD 13. Well I finally got my brakes bled. But not in time to go to PD! I'll be there in July! the wife was pissed that we didn't get there, but hey its only 10-15 mins from my house! I'll be there nice and early in July.

 

Hope I can go in July as well (the day is booked off ). This time it will be with a passenger if the backrest gets installed by then! We had some good representation there GH.

Weather-wise, me being from down east (Atlantic Canada) the weather was pretty good, couldn't complain about the 17c, and neither could Maxine.

 

I live so close I really don't think of going there is a big deal. Because I'm in PD about once or twice a week! But having said that the people who live the closest to these events are usually the last to go!

 

The white 550 Seca is mine. The drain screws are from XJ4EVER along with spin on oil filter kit, fuel filer, throttle cable and other small items. It was a great day. I hung out at Tim's from noon to 12:30 but did not meet any one. I had an XJbikes.com sign on my back pack. I ran into Altus when I bought some deep fried peanut butter cups. I will be there in July.

 

HAHA, we stepped up on the curb as you were leaving (by Tim's), didn't you notice us with the black jackets? lmao. We'll have to be more organized for next time, hopefully we'll meet up. Heck if you're in tilsonburg thats not a long run, we could do coffee at some point.

 

I'll be over in July too.

 

We'll have to make arrangements to meet either on the way to PD or at Timmie's. Fitzs would you like me to secure some refreshments for you this year? My bike is not as pretty as the ones you boys ride! Its pretty much the way I bought it except for the replacement parts. I hope to get a paint job this winter!

 

Hey Marcel great pics and a great day. Was great meeting up with you Xjpilot and his girfriend.
We got talking and you seemed enthused when I told you about my trip to the Isle of Man, well I just found an old clip of me on a rental I had and the helmet cam footage of me on the Mountain section. Hope you like it.

That's awesome Maxim-x... I'd love to go there some year to watch the TT, that's racing! Not many races like that anymore, where you have to duck lightpoles at 120 ! That movie I mentioned is called "closer to the edge", pretty cool documentary!

Hey there - the photo you have IMG_2047.JPG with "Altus?" on it - yup, that's my bike.
