This one of a kind trike was built for me during the winter of 2009-10 so I have ridden it for 4 summers and had a lot of fun on it. Now I have another trike as well so one must go.<br />
<br />
1983 Yamaha 650 Maxim with the back axle from a mid 1970s Datsun car (now known as Nissan). The motorcycle, as of this evening, has just over 61,400 kilometers on it and has loads of life left. <br />

Note: <br />
The sound in this video is not this trike, but is a combination of the wind and the Harley it was being videoed from.<br />

Th<span style="font-size: small;">ey give lists of vehicles along with <span style="font-size: small;">a list of the possible rear ends that they might have. In the list below I have included the ones <span style="font-size: small;">starting around 1<span style="font-size: small;">980 and newer as I figure older than that is going to be a challenge to get ahold of, though I would be open to <span style="font-size: small;">an older one if it was the right one. I want <span style="font-size: small;">the axle to be app<span style="font-size: small;">roximately <span style="font-size: small;">52" wide (long?) from outside brake to outside brake... and I want disc brakes rather than drum breaks.</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span><br />

<div class="intro">
Green Stevia, or Eupatorium rebaudianum, is a leafy plant native
to Colombia, Brazil, Paraguay and Venezuela. Since its use by the Guarani
Indians in this region began 1,500 years ago, Green Stevia has been used as a
medicinal herb in many parts of the world. </div>
<br />
<span class="fbPhotosPhotoCaption" id="fbPhotoSnowliftCaption" tabindex="0"><span class="hasCaption">Made from the leaves of the plant simply by drying and crushing them, this powder (10-15 times sweeter than sugar) is the <u><i>only
</i></u>sweetener that is <u><i>alkaline </i></u>building, all others are <i>acid </i>building.
Green Stevia is 0 Calories and is 0 on the Glycemic Index, so it is good
for Diabetics and people wanting to loose weight. Also, it has many good
health benefits, including but not limited to: balancing blood sugars; promoting good oral
hygiene; etc. etc. I used use the green powder in my tea<span class="text_exposed_show">
and have now read/tried/use a different method which is even better.
Boil water, put 1 TBSP or so into a cup and fill it with boiling water,
let it steep until it's cooled right down (I usually leave it a few
hours) then strain it to separate the liquid from the now wet powder. I
use the Stevia Water in my tea and have even been using it in water to
make it more palatable (I never have liked water much)... hot or cold
water becomes much nicer to drink like this, even add a bit of lemon to
it. So now... the 'sludge' left over, the wet powder. I read that it
helps to heal minor sores and somewhere else that it's good to use on
your face followed by coconut oil which I like to use anyway. Awhile ago
I had a terrible rash on my chest and I still have some sores left from
it, and scars. Tonight I put what I think of as Stevia Sludge on my
chest and my face and left it there while I watched some TV, then went
and washed it off with a nice hot cloth. I then put coconut oil on both
face and chest. It really is amazing just how good this whole
treatment was. There was a tingling feeling and I swear I could feel my
skin tightening up, felt 'weird' but good, then the coconut oil
moisturized my skin and felt great!! I will sleep tonight with a towel
on my pillow to protect the pillow case from the oil that will rub off
my skin, but that's okay. I plan to make this a regular part of my skin
care routine. I don't use the store bought skin care stuff anymore
since I came to understand that those products are not natural and
likely not good for us. Our skin absorbs all the chemicals and such
that we put on it, and those are just toxic!!</span></span></span><br />

white Stevia powder that they sell in health food stores as well as
must grocery stores now days.... then I learned the truth. White Stevia
powder is just as unhealthy for us as all these chemical artificial
sweeteners!!! I can't understand how health food stores can sell that,
making us believe it's healthy when it's crap!! How do you take
something Green and make it White??? Think about it!! The only NATURAL,
whole foods, healthy way to use Stevia is using it Green. The plant
grows, the leaves are picked, dried ground into powder.... that's all,
period!!</span></span></span><br />

since Green Stevia is natural it does not have the bitter after taste
that many of the white stevia powders do. That comes from the processing, from the chemicals and fillers used. No chemicals or fillers in the

Chris has several great CDs out. I really love listening to him play his guitar. He recently decided he wanted to have a Sanctuary in his home, a place for our Spiritual Group to go to meditate, a quiet place specifically dedicated. He decided to make move all of his musical equipment and recording equipment down to a room in his basement and make his Music Studio into our Sanctuary. He moved his <b><a href="http://www.guitarcenter.com/Vox.gc">classic Vox Amps</a></b>, guitars, drums, all his various other instruments and recording equipment down the stairs into his new Music Room that he had created for this purpose. He then set up a wonderful space with lots of electric candles, many cushions of all sizes for sitting on and leaning against, and one of his guitars so he can play us into and/or out of meditations. It is so awesome!!!

However, the last while I have been looking for Vegan recipes that are easy and straight forward for me to make since I am really not very versed in cooking skills. I have found some that I really like, and am not sure they will be there when I go back again. For example, some that are seasonal recipes on web sites of magazines. In order to make sure I save them, I have been doing a copy/paste to put this onto my computer, using MSWord to save them. This is working well enough, though it is time consuming and I would like to figure out a better way of doing it. Perhaps some kind of <b><a href="http://www.eoncode.com/">Web To Print</a> </b>type idea so I can just print them out without all the extraneous stuff that is on most websites. I wouldn't want their heading or their menus of links to other things, just the recipe itself. This way I would make a cookbook in a binder... or two... three.... okay, so maybe storing them on the computer is better as it would take up less space in my home. However, I still think it would be handy to be able to print web site 'stuff' for many other things.Alice (in BC Canada)http://www.blogger.com/profile/09512112540193806978noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36098037.post-37417000347178310152013-01-25T20:40:00.000-08:002013-01-25T23:03:41.994-08:00Quotes on Housework<div style="text-align: center;">

chance of survival than the lion, which hunts alone.</span>

After I posted it here, I went to Facebook to the Smithers Centennial page which I had "Liked" earlier in the day. I posted a link there to the story I had posted here. Hey, being a 'member' like I am on many other Facebook pages where I clicked "Like", I figured I could do that, and do it I did. Today I went back to that site and was surprised to find they had removed my post!!! I used no bad language or anything, just stated some facts about my family history in Smithers. I truly thought they would like that. Guess I was wrong. So, what did I do?? I UNLIKED SMITHERS CENTENNIAL ON FACEBOOK!!! <br />
<br />
I am very disappointed in the people behind the Facebook site, and am not sure I want to go there this summer after all. I ride with 2 motorcycle clubs and I invited the members of the much larger club to ride with me to Smithers for the August 3 - 10 celebrations. I am only 1 person who 'unliked' the Facebook site, yet I am one person who has lots of friends that I may choose to ride to a different location during that week. There has been some talk about the Grand Canyon.... that sounds like a really great ride!!<br /><br />Alice (in BC Canada)http://www.blogger.com/profile/09512112540193806978noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36098037.post-11339581294599765522013-01-13T00:58:00.003-08:002013-01-13T01:26:48.703-08:00Smithers Centennial - The Rest of MY StoryI wrote a post about the Smithers Centennial and how I and my 'family of origin' are connected with this event. I posted "<a href="http://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=36098037#editor/target=post;postID=1133958129459976552">Happy 100th Birthday, Smithers, BC</a>" after cutting some of what I had written. I cut it because I decided to put a link to that post on Facebook, my page and the Smithers Centennial 2013 page, and I felt that not all of what I had written need be part of that post. Yet, I didn't want to just delete what I had written. Maybe it's more something that should be shared in a Diary, or in a Personal Journal. I have chosen to share those words here instead of hiding them away, even though they are about my feelings and may have no real interest to anyone other than myself... or they may. If you are about to read this post, you may want to go read that first part first, then return here to read the rest. <br />
<br />
Here is the rest of the story:<br />
<br />
For many years I was very unhappy with my
parents for moving us away from Smithers, though I have been having a
very good life in the Okanagan Valley, and am now happy to be here. I
think
it is only since 2000 that I no longer think of that town as my home. I
often dreamed about being on the road traveling from Vernon to
Smithers, or Smithers to Vernon, or being in one preparing to travel to
the other, feeling torn between my two homes. It's not all that long
since I last had one of these dreams. I think that, in my heart, I have
now chosen, that I now finally truly know which is my home. I am here,
at home in Vernon where I have a good life, a nice home, and many dear
friends.<br />
<br />
This evening, while visiting Mom, she asked
me if I was glad we moved down to this area of our province. I don't
know. For so many years I felt I had been taken away from where I was
meant to be, and I knew in my heart of hearts that I would have married
the boy I knew since I was a little girl, the <i>absolutely gorgeous</i> man I spent some time with
when visiting as an adult. I believe that had he not been married to
another by that time, we would have gotten together all those years
later since the childhood love was still there<i>... for both of us</i>. After that visit I never saw him again, for
he was killed in an accident way too young.<br />
<br />
I will never know what my
life would have been like had we stayed in Smithers, I can only guess at
that. I know my life has not always been happy here, but who's life is
always happy? Would it have been happier if we had stayed in Smithers?? It has certainly not turned out the way I had hoped, the
way I had envisioned it would be. Yet, I suspect it has turned out the
way it was meant to be. Am I glad we moved away from Smithers? No!! Am I
sorry we moved away from Smithers? No. It is what it is.... period!<br />
<br />
I thought I was finished writing this post.... I was going to hit "Publish"... yet I have said nothing in either Smithers post about my Aunt Mable. My mother's sister. She was so much a part of our lives as we were growing up. I so miss my beloved Aunt Mable!! She has been gone many years now and life has never been quite the same without her here. I look forward to the day I see Aunt Mable again...<br />

<span class="fw_sanitized">
In
1913, John & Anna Lapadat, formerly of Romania, Oregon, Vancouver,
moved to Smithers, BC. John, a brick layer by trade, had been hired to help
build the Round House for the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway, thus the
reason for moving to this new town. When the job was done, it was usual
for John to pack up his family and move to the next job in the next
town, but not this time. This time the Lapadats decided to put down
roots in the beautiful Bulkley Valley. This time, they decided to become farmers in
the Smithers area.<br />
<br />
As the years passed, John & Anna
added to their family of 4 that had moved to Smithers. The first child
they had in this new home was a boy who was the first white boy, possibly the
first white baby, born in Smithers, though a little girl was also born around
that time and it is uncertain, at least to my knowledge, which was born first. This baby boy was
named <i>George Smithers Lapadat</i>.<br />
<br />
In 1923, already
having several children, Anna gave birth to another girl, naming this
one Annie. This little girl was to grow up and marry a man named Jesse
James (Jim) Price. This little girl was to become the mother of 6
children, though sadly only raising 5 of them. This little girl was to
see both of her parents and her first born son (second born child) buried in the Smithers Cemetery. <br />
<br />
In 1968, Annie & Jim, having sold their farm just west of Smithers, packed up the 4
children still living at home and moved south, to the small community of
Mara, BC where they lived for 2 years before moving to Enderby where Jim's ashes are buried in the
Enderby Cemetery and Annie, at 89 years young, still lives on her own
in a nice little condo. <br />
<br />
This post did not start out to
be this long.... yet it flowed through the fingers on the keyboard. It
could be longer, so you can be grateful, haha. Yes, this is the story
of my roots. I still have relatives that live in Smithers, 100 years
after our grandparents settled there. Sadly, my uncle, John Lapadat,
passed away in January 2001, yet his loving wife Lois and 2 of their 4
children, Ron and Tony are still "Smithereens". <br />
<br />
I hope to make it up to Smithers this summer, August 2nd to 10th, for the Centennial Celebration that is planned. Since I have pets, it will depend on me having someone to care for them while I am gone. I don't know anyone there anymore, other than my relatives, yet it would be fun to go back again. Who knows, maybe someone I used to know will also go back, or someone I am supposed to meet will be there. I know that if I am meant to be there, all will come into place and I will go. </span><br />

has come to me that perhaps the fastest way to PEACE is not by looking

overwhelming thing to create. In order to have PEACE in the world, each

have one grain of anger, hate, frustration, to name just a few, then you
do not have total PEACE within you, and we can not experience World

I have been doing things like going through what I have stored in my back rooms, giving much of it away over Freecycle or taking lots to thrift shops where I donate it and they sell it, using the proceeds for good causes.<br />
<br />
Recently I discovered a local buy, sell, trade, give site on Facebook and am sad to say I have been buying way too much off of there. It is a great site, and what I have bought is all good, all things I will use, yet my mission is not to buy more, but to get rid of more. I plan to sell lots of things through this site, I just have to start digging things out, taking photos of what I want to sell, and posting the photos, description and asking price on the site. Some of the things I know I have that need to go include, but are not limited to: drinking glasses I bought at a gas station decades ago, trimmed with 24K gold, never used and taking up space in my cupboards. I am not sure what to ask for these collector glasses, what they might be worth.... <b><a href="http://www.rockymountaintrail.com/outdoor/Jackets/Winter_Jackets/">winter jackets for women</a></b> that no longer fit me as put away in a back closet.... jeans that are now too large for me must go.... a surround sound system with speakers that still work great though the volume level is not working right.... lots of ornaments and collectables. I know there are many other things as well. Now to make the time to do the work!!!Alice (in BC Canada)http://www.blogger.com/profile/09512112540193806978noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36098037.post-43436481886691204512013-01-12T14:31:00.000-08:002013-01-12T14:31:51.064-08:00I Choose.....<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

It said, "<a href="http://www.blogger.com/%3Ca%20href=%22http://www.standsandmounts.com/plasmaandlcdmounts.aspx%22%3Eflat%20mounts%20for%20your%20home%3C/a%3E"><b>flat mounts for your home</b></a>".<br />
<br />
"What in the world is that?" was my response. "Is it something for setting up a mobile home, or for leveling an RV?"<br />
<br />
Now, I don't always feel the need to find the meaning of every word or
phrase or term I see or hear, but there are days I do feel that need. I
guess this was one of those days, because I decided to check it out.
It turns out that I am glad I did as it is something I actually have
been wanting to learn more about. I have a 51" flat screen TV that I
have sitting on a small table, taking up room in my<b> </b>over stuffed
living room, so I have been thinking I would like to get, or at least
look into getting, one of those things you use to hang the TV on the
wall. Well, this is one of those things. Now I know, now I get to
learn more about how to do it, what to use, and what it all will cost
me. Good thing I followed my instincts to check this out.<br />
<br />
I am grateful for the internet and for the information I find on here.<br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
So many wonderful people sent me birthday wishes on Facebook, most of them people I have never met, yet they love me. I also got good wishes from all my siblings this year, very unusual!! Of my 4 nieces, 4 nephews, 4 great nieces & 5 great nephews, I got 1 birthday greeting from 1 niece!! I was supposed to go to Mom's for a visit and to go out together for dinner, but the snow was coming down so hard and the roads were so bad that I decided not to go. The 25 minute drive on slippery, dangerous highways that the police are recommending we don't go out on.... well, it's just not worth the risk. A birthday can be celebrated any day!! </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
On <a href="http://rebasrun.blogspot.ca/2013/01/my-new-computer-errrr-phone.html">January 5th, I got myself this fancy new computer</a>. Okay, so it's a 'smart phone', but it is like a computer, and comes with a lot to learn!!! Obviously I will have to spend time with someone many years younger than I am and get lessons!! Borrow a friend's child or something, lol. Today, I ran some errands in town, including getting renewing my expiring driver's license, and looking for a case for my phone. I didn't want to buy the case at the store where I got the phone as I feel they overcharge for things there and I wish I had gone elsewhere to get the phone. An Otter Box case is $50 and just the plane gel case is $30 then another $10 for a screen protector so you may as well pay the $50 for the much better protection for your phone, and the Otter Box includes the screen saver. I checked out a few dollar stores to see what they had and found Iphone cases, but no Samsung. Then I was grocery shopping at Great Canadian Superstore and decided to see if they had phone accessories since they have so many other things there. I found that they now have a Telus booth in the store, something new, and sure enough they have cases for Samsung. The other store was also a Telus store... yet this one has Otter Box cases for $40 and I forget what the gel cases are. The gal who I was talking to said she could likely give me the Otter Box at a discounted price... she checked the computer and said $30. I said SOLD!!! So I got myself a good case to protect my new phone (worth $650 but I got it free with a new 3 year contract) for $20 plus taxes less than I would have gotten it, so paid $34.20 instead of $57, just by shopping around!!</div>

This photo is one I took with my fancy new phone. I think it was Sunday, January 6th when I took it. Since then it has snowed a lot!! This is my driveway, taken through the windshield of my truck. Add all the new snow and the fact the snow plows go through and fill up all the driveways, and my back doesn't allow me to shovel this anymore.... well, when I got home from town there was no way I was getting up this hill!!! I tried several times in 4 Wheel Drive Low Range and High Range and neither way was I getting up here. I was hoping that I would pack the snow enough with my tires to eventually make it up. About the 5th try, my neighbor who was plowing his driveway came over and offered to plow me out. I gratefully accepted his kind offer. He could not get quite half way up the hill, but he cleaned out the mouth of the driveway where the plows had packed it in, then went further and further up, bringing more snow down and pushing it into the deep ditches on either side of my driveway. When he could get no further up the hill he had to quit. Even having it plowed nearly half the way up made a lot of difference and I was able to make it up all the way. At the bottom of the hill, one must make a 90 degree turn from the highway into my driveway, then at the top of the hill, another 90 degree turn to get to where I park beside the house. It is still on a hill, but a much lesser grade than what you see here. While you can back across the highway to get a run at it and drive reasonably fast up the hill, you must slow right down to make that 2nd 90 degree turn or risk hitting the corner of my home. The slowing down means loss of momentum and difficulty making it that last few feet. Very few people come to visit me in winter, mostly just friends with 4 Wheel Drive vehicles come here in winter, and even in summer many people won't drive up here, but leave their vehicles down below and walk up. <br />

And
with Christmas over, we are about to cross from 2012 to 2013 with
nothing but the barest moment between them. One second it is this year
and the next second it is that. Such a smooth transition that you can't
not even feel it.... not even if you try. The slip of a second.... like
the blink of an eye. Yes, the year is so close to over and the new year
will begin. Having come from a time in the 1900s this 2013 seems most
strange. Most odd that we would be here and I only barely past the
middle of the years I likely will spend here. Yet, here I sit
reminiscing and 'waxing poetic' while friends are out having a good time
celebrating the last Saturday night of 2012. I hope all have a good
time wherever they are and wherever they may live... I just hope that by
morning none of them need the services of a <b><a href="http://meservylawpc.com/">top San Diego law firm</a></b>,

Some places old car and truck tires are used to build the walls, or in some cases, bales of hay, tin drink cans, even plastic or glass bottles, to name just some things. There are actually many different ways of doing this sort of thing. I have read on the internet about Earthships which are built of tires, bales, bottles, etc. and are fully self contained with their own power supplies, water filtering systems, and such like that. Sadly, here where I live one would not be able to get a building permit to build homes like this.... or at least this has been the rule, but it may be changing now. I was doing some surfing the net a night or two ago and was surprised to find some links to building Earthships not only in Canada, but also in British Columbia!! Still, so far as I know the community I live in still doesn't allow this kind of building. I hope I am wrong, or that things are changing and we will soon be cleared to build homes by recycling things that would otherwise end up in land fill locations and other 'dead stuff' storage places.</span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> The "<a href="http://inspirationgreen.org/plastic-bottle-homes.html?sms_ss=facebook&at_xt=4d9e74f3b5aeceab%252C1">Inspiration Green</a>" website shows us many photos of homes and greenhouses built with plastic bottles. Well worth the visit!!</span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> Just think about this.... take some of these plastic bottles that were once used for water, soda pop, or fruit juice. Rescue them from streams, streets, garbage dumps, and werever else they may end up. Where I live we have recycle programs, so when we purchase the drinks we pay extra for the bottles and then when we take the bottles back to the 'recycle depot', we are given a refund. This can add up to a tidy sum of money if you have many of these bottles to return. However, I know that not everywhere has these recycle programs. For example, I occasionally go to Washington state in the USA and the first time I was there, for the Omak Stampede and World Famous Suicide Race, I was shocked at how many bottles and cans were left laying on the ground all around the stampede grounds, carnival rides, vendor booths, etc. It turns out that WA has no recycle program in place for these items, so people just throw them into trash cans that are near by, or onto the ground. When I think of how they could be used to build homes for the homeless..... wow.</span></span> <br />

I continued to look at Kijiji through all of BC, looking each day to see what new posts had been made selling motorcycles. I was looking for the 'right and perfect' motorcycle for me to trike. I saw nothing on Kijiji that suited me or my needs, though in the past I have seen many that would have done very well. A friend of mine heard about a 1987 Honda Goldwing or sale and it sounded like a good deal... until we saw it. It was in fairly rough shape and had been sitting unstarted for 10 years. I may have been tempted to buy it if I could get it for a couple hundred dollars, but he was asking a lot more than that. By the sound of it we may have been able to talk him down to $800 to $1000, but with all that would need to be done on it, that was too much. Also, when I sat on it and held on to the handle bars I was leaning forward just enough that it would be impossible for me to ride as my back would be in such pain I would not be able to function.<br />
<br />
Then I got a call from my friend Rozi. You see, the Yamaha I had looked at belonged to a friend of hers and she was trying to sell it for him. When she told him I had been over and looked at the bike, and that I was a friend of hers wanting to build a trike, he told her he would drop the already good price by $800. I went back and looked at it again, and I bought it! So now I own the bike which is still sitting outside at Rozi's place as there has been a LOT of snow falling in our area in that time and there is no way I can bring it home just now. I don't think it will fit into the back of my truck for me to bring it home; I would need 2 or 3 strong men to help load it into the truck if I measured and found it would fit; my driveway is so steep and so snowed in that I'm not sure I could back the truck up the hill and into the front of the carport which is the only place I have to store the bike and my current trike is in the carport so there is no room for the new bigger motorcycle. Rozi has a carport and will let me put the motorcycle in there for the winter as soon as some other stuff is moved out of the carport. I can park it beside her ex-boyfriend's Harley that is still sitting there. I still will need to get a couple guys to come over and help move it as it is too big for me to move, too big for me to ride as a 2 wheeler since I can't touch the ground with my feet when sitting on it. I think getting a couple friends to move it should be no problem.<br />

I look forward to being able to show off photos of what it will look like when the work is done and it is converted to a trike.Alice (in BC Canada)http://www.blogger.com/profile/09512112540193806978noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36098037.post-76271804417088938632012-12-12T00:25:00.000-08:002012-12-31T00:28:10.529-08:0012-12-12<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

We have had a very special opportunity in life. We have lived through 12 years of sequential dates. Starting with January 1st, 2001 (01/01/01), then February 2nd, 2002. My niece Becky was pregnant with her 1st baby, her son Clayton, and since she is a diabetic her doctor decided to bring on the baby on 02/02/02. What an awesome birth date that would be!!! Then Clayton changed the plan and he joined us on Earth on January 26, 2002. Now, it is the last sequential date of my lifetime... it is 12/12/12 (December 12th, 2012). My how time has flown by!!<br />
<br />
My friends Stacia & Lucky had a baby girl back 20 some years ago, they named her Angel, and she has been an angel, for sure. Now on November 11, 2012 (Remembrance Day here in Canada), Angel became a mother too. Her wee son, Darius, may see 01/01/01 when it comes around again 88 years from now, January 1st, 2101 when he has just turned 88 years of age, and maybe he will even live to 100 years of ages, seeing December 12, 2112. Yes, it is all very possible for Darius and other new born babies alive now to see the next run of sequential dates.... yet for you and me, we lived through these ones and that is that.<br />

I was born in the 1950s, so when the year 2000 (or Y2K as many called it) arrived, I not only lived through the change of one century to another, as many have and many others will do, but I and others alive at the turn of the year also experienced changing from on millennium to another. That is kind of big when you think of it. It will be a very, very long time before anyone else lives through the change of millenniums again.<br />
<br />
If you are reading this post you probably also lived these 'special' dates.... or did you? Apparently whatever is posted on the internet will stay here forever, so maybe when you read this it will be 12 hours after I post, or 45 months later, even 632 years after today. Maybe, just maybe, you will be reading my blog sometime in the <i>next </i>millennium!! Whenever you read this post, this blog, I wish you and your loved ones abundant prosperity, peace, joy, love. <br />

It is Yamaha's version of Honda's Gold Wing, a full dressed touring motorcycle. There are many things I like about this motorcycle, including the foot boards instead of foot pegs, the 'toe & heel' shifter, it has a radio/cassette player, though it doesn't have the driver's backrest it does have the hardware for mounting one, it is water cooled, it is in fairly good shape and priced fairly low so mostly fits my budget. What I don't like about it is that it has too much 'stuff' on it and I don't mean the saddlebags and trunk. The gas tank is built in so you don't actually see it and there is a lot of 'body' over the engine. I'm not sure how to explain it, maybe that it's an 'old foggy' bike or a 'nerd' bike... it's a very nice bike, just really not my 'style'. It's so.... errrr.... Joe Citizen, and I'm a bit of a Rebel! Could I wear my 'biker leathers' with this, or would I need some fancy 'motorcycle suit' for it? Haha. When I sat on it there was SO MUCH fairing, though I guess I would get used to that in time.<br />
<br />
I didn't take photos of the motorcycle for sale, though I went to Google Images and downloaded photos of the 1991 Yamaha Venture Royale. The first ones are pretty much exactly the same as the one I went to see, including the color blue.<br />

These next photos are still the Yamaha Venture Royale, but are a different body style. Much more what I want to own and ride!! The fairing is much smaller, though still has the radio built in, it still has the saddlebags, trunk, etc, does not have as much plastic? over the body hiding the gas tank and engine. If the motorcycle for sale looked like these ones, I would own it by now, lol.<br />

Now check out this next photo. This is one <i>gorgeous trike</i>!! This is what I want for <i>my</i> trike!! It is like the 2nd batch of above photos of the Yamaha Venture Royale that has been changed to a 3 wheeler which is called a trike. I would be proud and happy to have this as my new ride!!<br />

Alas, the one I saw is of the body style shown at the top of this post and as much as I do like things about it, I don't think I would love it as much as I would love one more of this body style, so I think for now I will continue to look for a motorcycle I am more attracted to, fits into my budget, and is easily converted to a trike. After 3 awesomely wonderful summers of riding the trike I made from a 1983 Yamaha 650 Maxim motorcycle, I know I want to keep riding, and I know I need a bigger trike. My current one is great, and I've outgrown it. I ride with 2 motorcycle riding clubs as well as some 'non club' friends. All theses other riders have big motorcycles and I like to keep up with the pack, not lag behind. My 650 does keep up with the 'big boys', but I fear the little guy will not last as long as he should running at the higher RPMs that it has to run at to keep up with the bigger bikes. I know someone else will love the little guy and I will love my new, much larger trike.<br />

This is a photo of my current trike. I added a windshield after this photo was taken, otherwise it looks the same now as it did in the photo. A motorcycle that looks like this one though is larger, has a much larger cc rating (instead of a 650 if it was 1100 or somewhere in that area) I would be very happy with as I do like the look of this one. I do plan to have a totally different look to the trike portion on the new one.<br />
<br />
<br />
I am so grateful for the little trike I have been enjoying for the last 3 summers.<br />
I am so grateful for the wonderful, fun, adventuresome rides I've taken on my trike.<br />
I am so grateful for the friends I've made while riding my trike and for the clubs I am a member of... All Canadian Riders Club, British Columbia Lone Wolves, Brothers of the Third Wheel.<br />
I am so grateful for my 'leathers' that not only protect me while I ride, but also look good on me.<br />
I am so grateful for my adventuresome spirit that allows me to get out and ride my own ride.<br />
