2008 Kootenay Raid/PNW Tour
Permalink | July 11, 2008 by John in Motorcycle News, My 2002 Triumph Bonneville America, Travel
Well, I’m off to meet up with Halpop (”Freedom” on BA.com) at his place in Thompson Falls, MT. Tomorrow we’re heading west over the Northern Cascades of Washington, rather than north up into British Columbia. This year we decided to make a run out to the west coast prior to the Kootenay Raid (Triumph Rally) in Nelson, BC (our fourth time at the event, and my fifth trip into BC). While out there we’re going to meet up with a couple of our Triumph brethren, tour Vancouver Island and ride to Nelson as a small group.
While in Nelson (Thurs-Sun) we’ll once again be staying at the Mountain Hound Inn. The only thing that would make this hotel better is if they had a back door that opened up directly onto the Grand Hotel’s parking lot, also known as Kootenay Raid HQ.
As per usual, watch this space for pictures and a ride report.
The Shelby is here! The Shelby is here!

Thoughts turn to a personalized license plate. I wonder if vanity plates count towards your bumper sticker aggro indicator?
So far I’ve only got concatenated abbreviations of the model: SHELDAK and SHELBY D.
Yes, I’m a dork.
Update: Now I like this one best: SD1295 (Shelby Dakota #1295). Might be too much like a real license plate.
