Ah man, ive always wanted to do this! But you know... i had a kid... Whats your opinion on the bike? What size is it?
mpreds
It's pretty great, its a 690. 67 hp, fuel injection and ABS in a 310 lb package. Quite fun! Fuel range is a bit low, 250 km max.

Kids ruin your life! At least that's what my parents have always said..

They are their own joy. Its a major trade off, but in the end youll always choose your kids. Eventually youll enjoy your hobbies together

HOLY FUCK! I spent my summers as a kid around Quesnel lake, I recognize a few of those spots @OP.

That's awesome! Glad I could send some nostalgia your way :)

If you do the trip again, go to Kethley Creek. There are tons of old mining camps and shaft mines to explore.
mpreds
I actually rode through there on my way to Yanks peak! My exploration extent was stopping by the old cemetery though. Next time!

I biked up Yanks peak about 10 years ago, I have family in that old cemetery, you drove past my family property.
