Gold Wing Annual Motorcycle ride from Sault Ste. Mare, Chapleau, Wawa

The Gold Wings have returned!

Once again the Gold Wing riders have returned to the Bristol Motel Saturday June 7, 2008.

They had a beautiful sunny day but the wind was wild at some points along the way.

On the way up each group (they travel in groups usually two or three) had seen a moose along the highway and a couple of them had seen a bear. It was a bonus for this ride.

These two riders showed up a day early to make arrangemnets to park their bikes. They had a reserved spot held for them at the front door, "Lord Verhelst & the Emperor". This did not last too long as the reserved sign was moved at least four times when I was watching. Tyler ..... later played the bagpipes for the group and he is very talented. It was a treat to hear the bagpipes. We seldem get a chance to hear them and usually it is for Remembrance Day.

Willy & Bonnnie and their staff put on an annual BBQ for this great group of riders. They are a real treat to have and we enjoy having them. It is always a good time for everyone.

This is the first time, in all of the years this group has been coming, that we had a chance of rain. Willy made a tent to cover the tables in case of rain but at one point he had to take it down as the sun came out and the wind was so strong it was blowing the tarp off. The rain held off until the dessert was served ... great timing .... ! The tent went back up and they enjoyed the company of their new friends until late.

Everyone looks like they know what they are doing. Chief Chico and Louise have everything under control. With great help like this no problem.

The morning after, 7:30 am the riders are getting ready to breakfast at the Columbia Restaruant before their rendezvous at the Wawa Goose where they will take the annual group photo.

It was foggy when they left but it turned out to be a beautiful day and I am sure they had a great ride back as the scenery is fresh and green this time of the year.

Until next year ... have a safe summer and we will see you again! After the geese return the Gold Wings will arrive. Willy & Bonnie and staff.

Reactine ALLERGY RELIEF Van Visited Wawa Bristol Motel

Have you seen the Reactine Men?












Have you seen this bright blue unique vehicle along the highway


or maybe on the television ad for Non-Drowsy Allergy relief?












Lee & Steve the Reactine Men have


spent the night at the Bristol Motel May 31, 2008.
They have been travelling across the North leaving North Bay on Tueday and travelling down to Timmins, Wawa, Sault Ste. Marie and back. They have been promoting a new allergy relief medication Reactine that promises to relieve runny nose, itchy, watery eyes, sneezing, and hives for 24 hours and is non-drowsy. Product is made by Johnson & Johnson Inc. They are giving out free samples.




They arrived here in a new bright blue energy efficient car that is made from three vehicle types I have been told. The car is a real eye catcher ..... ! If you missed the car watch the television for the ad. They have another trip to the west of Ontario before travelling to Quebec. If you see them on the road ... honk your horn ... maybe they will honk back ... check out their horns.
