What else are you going to call a tour with three brothers whose initials are “JJ”?

Jim, Joe, and John.  AKA Slug, Boyd, and Newman.  I didn’t ask, so I can’t tell you.  Picked them up in afternoon and went straight up to Oop’s place in Vernon for something this crew of OG North Shore types calls “Suffer Fest”.  It’s horrible.  I made the boys build their own bikes.

Meanwhile, the rest of us suffered through this little scene on the deck.

The rest of the guys were out wake surfing when we arrived, so they missed out on…..absolutely nothing.

We had already stopped for some food, so as the sun set we really suffered when the food came out.

Oh yeah, leg of lamb and Kokanee (actually, some damn fine reds were going down).

Great start to a tour and it was awesome to see some faces from the old ‘hood again.
