Home: Sointula, a small fishing village located on Malcolm Island off Northern Van Isle

I started riding when I was about 9 {Neighbors Minibike} and earned enough money {working on the boats} to buy my first bike {Suzuki TS 75} by the age of 11.... Since then I have gone through close to 20 bikes all of them having one thing in common, dirt capability.....

I have worked in many different jobs through the years with just about all of them being outdoors type work.
Some jobs I've done: trolling, gillneting, tenderman on a packer,parks crew, silviculture {thinning, pruning,caging,surveying}, trailbuilding, shakemilling,sawmilling and small engine repair.

I've been a member of the DND reserves since I was 25 and continue to be active.... I've been out on many exercises as well as a few real world callouts mostly for lost or missing people and plane crashes...

Hobbies besided riding: Hunting,hiking,camping,backpacking and exploring...

I've been happily married for 20 years and have a son {13} and 2 daughters {15,17}...
