Cruiser Days 2026. July 25 2026! Mark your calendars!

[AJAEbj42]

Hey Cruiserheads,

It is the club's 35th Anniversary!! this year and our 31st running of Cruiser Days!

Looking for location suggestions. Hougen Park in Abbotsford was last year and works well, happy to host it there but open to other suggestions!

Bringing back an older logo (there are at least three 'OLD' logos!) for T-shirts this year. Open to other swag too, post up your ideas!

35? Didn't we just do 25th anniversary mugs?!?

 

[AJAEbj42]

Check your Christmas mug.... it says 35 years!

Time flies

Check your Christmas mug.... it says 35 years!

So, I poured myself a coffee this morning and looked, closely, at the mug and damn, there it is! 35 years.

So, I was doing some cleaning out of my crawl space today and tackled the OLD Coastal Cruiser File Box.

Yes, Barb Tetu was once our secretary!
@Mud_Guppie Steve, your company stickers are ready for pick up.
And we used to diligently record our prize winners at our monthly raffles! And yes, Coastal Cruisers was incorporated under the Societies Act in 1991!
These wonderful facts stored in 4 binders will be available for perusal at Cruiser Days! (and yes, I'll digitize them eventually for all you out-of-towners!).
The 1997 Tech inspection is a hoot!

Need to move this to July 25th; my daughter reminded me of a family commitment on the 18th.

The inspector was at least partially culpable for the frame situation. No one loved a 1/8 mile drag race at the end of a static strap as much as Brad. Especially when Bruce's truck was stuck on the other end. I wonder if this was before or after Rubithon.

The wifey (Angie) and I really loved and appreciated our 1st Cruiser Day in 2025 (thanks again for the ARB fridge raffle prize!). We’ll be back this year and will be properly equipped to camp this time around.

Oh and we’re camping Vancouver Island the week after ( Aug 1-9). Throwing this out there in case anybody’s interested in camping Side Bay or somewhere around Bamfield.

Cheers,
Dennis

I will start another thread for post-Cruiser Days excursion.
Throwing out doing the Lower Churn through Yodel (that Mike and Kim did last summer) up to Upper Churn. Options from there are east back to Fraser via China Head, out Yalakom to Lillooet, or west to Gold Bridge and Hurley FSR.
Let's continue the discussion in the new Trip thread, not here.
Thx
Franz

Shirts are IN! They are a dark grey almost black (darker than shown above). Full logo on front, back is blank.

Order one size up (they fit slim or I've increased another size LOL) . Light-weight Ts (60/40 cotton/poly with direct to thread print so they are surprisingly soft.

Shipment is flat $10 for you out-of-towners (must be paid club members for me to ship). $30 each.

Sorry, no refunds or exchanges except at the show.

$35 at the show for the rest of the world.

 

[cruiserpilot]

I'll be at the show. Pick up 2 XL please.

 

[gofast]

I'll be at the show. One 3XL and one 2XL

 

[bladedog]

I'll grab mine at the event, probably XL then, as I've probably grown too!

 

[Enigma]

Cruiser Days campout at my place after the event. I just found a new spot. Kim for scale.

Maybe I will win the iron butt award again.

Looking forward to CruiserDays. I’ll collect a couple t-shirts while there too, though unsure sizing. Likely two of the XL.

Tnx

[Ol Yeller]

Will certainly attend if here, XL t shirt.

My dad has had some health issues this spring…may be supporting them up country by then.

 

[tarsier]

I will be there and likely a night camp-out.
