Well it's more or less official.

Many of you know I moved out west a year and a half ago- first out to the island where MXWizard took care of me and then I bumped over to the mainland where I was under the care and comfort of MonkeyNutz Racing.

It seems the gf (who was the reason I stayed in BC and didn't come home with my tail between my legs), who is involved in a highly specialized american sign language (ASL) course is restricted to taking the course in only a couple of different areas across Canada. Vancouver is one, some godforsaken place in Onterrible is another... and the last is Edmonton.

So guess what? I guess we're moving to Onterrible. No we're not. Edmonton it is!

Probably the Beaumont region- or at least somewhere on the south side. Houses are reasonable and I'm not going to lie the price of gas hovering around 1.13 for the cheap stuff (currently 1.43 for cheap stuff- around 1.60 for the 94 at chevron in West / North Van) has me salivating. She drives an Element which, to my surprise, is almost as bad on gas as my 99 4x4 1500 dodge ram- So that ALONE is a worthy motivator.

Anyway- I feel a bit arrogant to assume that this announcement is worth its own thread... but hey- here it is.

BC and their ridiculous policing, overzealous taxation and unfathomable price of fuel is a great place to visit... but holy 4ck I can't wait to get out of there.

 

Hope to be able to see you guys before you leave..Stay in touch till then and after..best wish and luck to both of you..MR& MRS Wizard.

 

That's too bad, I really feel sorry for you.
Best of luck wherever she takes you.

 

Sorry to hear you're leaving the Wet Coast. We'll have to go for a run up the Canyon before you go, if you have the time two runs. Be warned though, my runs have been known to be 700km or so. Give me a shout when you get back and we'll go log some files.

You were buying your gas in the wrong place, in the Valley it's almost $.20 litre cheaper even for 94. The Province is broke and Gov. had the cajones to take a 20% raise recently because an Independent Agency said that's what was fair. Idiotic TransLink and Carbon taxes...f@ck it, I'm moving to Edmonton too.-lol

 

Perfect. The trip through the mountains will be awesome to fine tune our cars lol. Mx- we will be around until at least August by the sounds of it. We will be in touch for a mainland visit!

 

B.C=Bring Cash. Will be nice to have you back in the area, not sure Redneck Edmonton would be on the list of places I want to be but given your options even it would look good

 

Welcome back to AB, Eno, even if it is to the wrong side of Ded Reer. We'll definitely have to do another meet in September now.

 

Yes- one that I can attend! Haha.

I couldn't describe all the different reasons I'll be so happy in Alberta- but believe me they are many.

And not to sound mushy or anything but it'll be nice to be closer to the community of guys who brought me into the g world!

 

Hey Tim, Ian is still registered for the Poker Run. Alberta or not we will still be expecting him...lol

 

And for a good reason- I wouldn't miss it either way!

 

Bringing extra " drinks" for Itnkicn..Glad to see youll be there....
