Hi Everyone!  

We have had a lively spring so far with Show and Shines and Tuesday Night Coffees.  Plus thanks to Bob Dishaw for putting on a fantastic presentation about how to be a Ride Captain, how to ride as part of our group, how to be a Tail Runner and all the important safety factors.  For those of you that missed it, Ben Schmidt (our newly-elected Member at Large that has taken on Coordination of our Online Presence) recorded the session and will soon make it available to all our members.  As a result of our attempt to spread the Ride Captain responsibility to include more members... thank you to Steve Hermanson for stepping up and planning our ride for June.   Gordon Anderson is also planning a fun ride for us (date TBA) and I believe that new member, Glen Carter, is working on a ride for us for this summer as well.  We still need a couple more rides to fill our riding season, so please contact me if you want to have fun with a great group of people trying to make our summer a fun one for all of us! Newbies at being Ride Captain welcome - we've got lots of support, resources and help to make your first time leading our Group a memory you'll keep forever!!

Coffee Nights in June - Starting on Tuesday, June 3rd, we will meet every Tuesday night at the Dairy Queen on 8th Street - time will be flexible with people showing up as early as 6pm and staying until almost dark.  So far, we have been having great turnouts and meeting some of our newest members and seeing some members for the first time since last summer.  Too bad we got rained out this past week - see you next Tuesday!

DAY TRIP  TO BATOCHE SATURDAY, JUNE 21 - CANCELLED Site not open replaced with RIDE to Fred Light Museum in Battleford

The new destination for the ride on June 21 will be the Fred Light Museum in Battleford, Saskatchewan. I have been wanting to visit this exhibit for sometime. I spoke with the manager Bernadette today and she said in addition to the firearms collection, they have a fire hall, vintage gas station and much more. They are open until 8 pm, so we will have lots of time. I will plan to have lunch in Battleford. We will still be leaving from Flying J at 10:00 am. The ride is 136 km and will take approximately 1 hour and 20 min.  

Please RSVP to me via email or phone.

1, CVMG SASKATCHEWAN ANNOUNCES the 2024 PUB (Pilgrimage Unto BIGGAR) RIDE

Back in the annuls of time, CVMG Saskatchewan established a riding challenge called the P.U.B..  PUB stands for Pilgrimage Unto Biggar (BIGGAR SK).  This riding challenge was sidelined when Orville Ohm passed in 2018, and then further when Covid occurred in 2020.  But like a bad cold, it is back for 2024.

CVMG Saskatchewan would like to challenge the CVMG members across Canada to ride the “PUB”. Especially now that the CVMG Annual Members Meeting for 2024 will be held close by in Saskatoon SK. Biggar is about 100km due west of Saskatoon, and a ride out to Biggar is planned as part of the activities of National AMM event. Rules and registration form are here.

Our first ride of the season.  Thanks to Bert for hosting this once again and Bob D. for being Ride Captain once again.  To join the Group Ride, meet up at Western Development Museum on Lorne Ave, leaving at 1:30 pm.  Coffee will be ready at 2:30 for those that are making their own way to Bert's - here's a google map link:   https://maps.app.goo.gl/AEjiC3dc5Ri5JCTv8

Bert has offered the following additional info for those that have been there before and know how to find his place:  "the "north gate" - close to the Church will be open until May 16th so if you want to extend a tiny bit you would could extend a bit by going straight out highway 60 through the main park entrance  and then loop back to the "North gate" beside the Church - and a few hundred meters to our place."

You can participate in both (we're hoping you do!) or you can just join us for the BBQ.  For those of you not familiar with a Poker Rally, you will be given a list of 5 different places in Saskatoon that will be holding a deck of cards for us.  You will need to ride to each of these locations to draw a card from their deck and this will form your Poker Hand.  Prize will be awarded to the Best Poker Hand at the BBQ, held at Rhonda & Derek's back yard at 2106 Cumberland Ave South.  Times will be announced at a later date but for now - just mark it in your calendar and plan to attend.  We need an RSVP (to Rhonda) by Fri May 24th to know how many we are feeding.
