Today was a stunningly beautiful summer day on Vancouver island, sunny, a little breezy and one begging for a motorcycle ride.
We ended up chasing down some twisties through East Sooke, I was too busy riding to stop and take pictures. (grins) We stopped for a bite of pie and a cool drink at Mom's Cafe, which is a favourite stop of ours. It was strawberry rhubarb to be exact and again I didn't take any pics because I was voraciously comsuming it because I was starving. After that we rode out to gorgeous Jordan River.
We puttered around and went for a beach ramble. The great thing about Vancouver Island is even in the dead of summer you aren't really sweltering because it can be chilly by the ocean, I was very glad I wore my full gear and not the mesh, I was happily contented.

Sounds like a perfect day - and pie too!
Lovely to see you out and about.
It looks like a beautiful location. Too many times have I just "passed through" British Columbia on my way to somewhere else. And I haven't been to Vancouver Island since 1973. Maybe it's about time for another visit…
It was strawberry rhubarb pie with ice cream!
I have been patiently waiting for this weather for so long & the hub to have his insurance and it was a perfect day!
Richard you really should come and tootle around the island it's lovely.
So the sun is out somewhere eh? Freezing here!
Glad to see someone out chasing those twisties!
Oooh sunshine and ride on the island. Perfect temperatures too. Better than the 90's we've been seeing.
Strawberry rhubarb - my favorite!!
