That first ride was definitely a tense one for me also. Only your day looked a lot better then mine. It was raining cats and dogs out, dark and cold. Not to mention that the saleman kept on reminding me about the power and the fact that the bike had new tires on it that would like to spin on the wet roads. I think that was the longest 40 minute ride that I have ever taken. I was very glad to get home that night.
Oh by the way it looks like you have yourself a very good business going up there, congratulations.
 
Thanks jwcfbd,
The first day was the scariest day of my life. That's funny because everyone I know reminds me about the power. Believe me I don't use even tenths of the power. The reason the cafe is so popular is because there's nothing over $10.00cdn. So that would be nothing over $6.00us. The portions are large, fresh, and delicious. I'll never be a millionaire but then again I'll never be hungry. This is someplace in California..makes great apple pie.

Don't keep us in suspense...show us the bloody menu. Is it sandwhiches, burgers, asian cuisine, or what? I am with Cache...any beer, wine, etc. Are you open very late? Any music? If so what type?

I know you don't want to blow your own horn too much, but we do want to know....builds anticipation for a trip up north.

You guys are so cute..

I just realized my website for the cafe is down. I'll have it running tomorrow. I've got to go to the server. Bogdan takes care of all the web stuff. Okay, yes we serve beer wine. One time we had a huge bq with over 70 bikes, I sold beer but after that one experience I thought best not to sell beer or wine at any of our events again..just for liability reasons. Anyways, we open between 7:30am to 4:00pm that's why I ride daily. On weekdays, I lead rides for newbies. I started a newbie group where experience riders, ride with a group of 4 to 5 newbies. On Wednesday, I ride with a group I started called the WestCoast Cruisers, these are mainly cruisers, on Thursdays I ride with an all girls group I held start called Carter Sportsbike Girls. Our food consists of brunch and lunch. Most of the food we make is strictly westcoast and asian. We make bennys, Omelettles, our own burgers, our speciality is our stir-fries. All our food is fresh and homemade. We have a very loyal clientele. Check it out.

This is my new sign, "Motorcycle Friendly Cafe".
These are my friends Vince, Stephen, and that's my friends Theresa's Harley. Theresa is motorcycle instructor. I love hanging out here because I get to see all my riding buddies.

Kent,
That's a great idea. In Vancouver or should I stay BC. we only one track and that's in Mission. Every year they ask if I want to set up a concession stand...I going to have to think of it serious soon. Opportunity you know...is knocking.
 
Mmmmm, stir fry...

Any hot and sour soup?

The concession stand sounds like a good idea and might drum up more business for the Cafe.
 
Hello,
brennanop, we definitely have hot and sour and thinker when you get up here I will throw a big bq in you honour. Cache I throw you a big party as well. We'll have the bq going, dj in the back so we have tunes, and the bike wash going so when you leave Canada you bike will be sparkling clean. How does that sound?
