The '78 Yamaha Triple on a misty fall ride.

1949 Chevrolet 1300 pickup.
This piece of property most likely does not exist anymore as it was slated to be turned into a subdivision. This great old truck sat in the back yard of the place. Hopefully someone took mercy on the old truck & hauled it home before the excavators moved in to do their nasty work.

Ghostly getaway.
This old car sits nestled in the woods & reminds me of a gangster car. The 4 doors left open as they went out in a blaze of gunfire, the car full of bullet holes, windows all shot out. This was such a great piece of property with old vehicles scattered throughout it's many acres.

CB400T.
This was a Honda CB400T I briefly owned & rode this season. Even though it was alot of fun to ride, it became apparent that 400 cc`s was just not big enough to take on the highway consistently. However, once on the gravel roads, it performed very well & was made for this type of terrain. Sadly, I let it go a month or so after purchasing it. I`d recommend these little bikes to anyone just wanting to putt the backroads or around town.

Old Iron.
Amazingly, all this old iron sits on just 1 piece of property. There is also a complete shop with tractor & car parts still hanging on the walls, even though the roof's caved in. The original house also still stands but is sadly in pretty rough condition. Great find with vehicles & farm implements from almost every era.

XS 650 Trail?
An older picture from a couple years ago but I love it. Took some cutlines with the XS and had a blast. It wasn't made for offroad but handles like it was....... to a point.

The one that got away.
Of the bikes I sold this spring, I regret selling the '78 KZ650 the most. Such a pretty bike & a pure pleasure to ride.

1956 Buick Special.
Found this '58 Buick Special hiding in the bushes among other classics one fall day along the Victoria Trail. This property was full of classic cars, trucks & tractors. What a great way to end our Ghost Ride season as this turned out to be our last ride together.

Endless Summer 2014, Sherwood Park AB.
This is one of the car show highlights of the year. St Albert and Sherwood Park have two of the best shows of the summer. James and I always end up at this show. This year I didn't enter anything but spent a good amount of time taking pictures. James had his Yamaha Triple in the show and despite all the V-Twin chrome that was there James Yamaha was the bike. Yamaha Triples are rare and gorgeous.
Sunset pictures with some of our bikes!

Michael's beautiful Gulf Bonneville.
These are some pictures I took of Michael's Gulf Bonneville at a car show we attended this summer. It's such a stunning bike it had to be immortalized!

Ghost Autos! Neglected & decaying automobiles found on our rides.
Some of the rusting hulks we've run across on our Ghost rides. A few are great candidates for restoration as well.
