[QUOTE="FastJoyRide, post: 1360791, member: 289"] Hi Sam: Sorry to be so late getting to your party but we've been planning a six week bucket list getaway of our own that starts tomorrow (lots of detail on the Riders forum if you're interested). I would modify your CDA to Penticton day, to cut north on Highway 33 at Rock Creek (about 30 miles east of Osoyoos) and then rejoin Highway 97 just on the north edge of Kelowna - unless you had a specific reason for choosing Penticton as a stop. Advantages: - 33 is comparatively lightly travelled, much more fun and scenic m/c road than Highway 97 - You bypass all of the south Okanagan communities and their early July traffic clusters (Osoyoos, Penticton, Kelowna etc.) - Instead of a generic motel you can plan to stay with us that evening at our place in Oyama (25 minutes further north on 97, after you rejoin it in Kelowna. We have a home that we built to welcome family and friends on one of the most beautiful lakes you have ever seen. The water will be coolish unless we have a very hot June (like 2016) but the swimming is fine. Sylvia and I might just ride down to meet you in Rock Creek and/or ride with you as far as Nakusp the next day - if you want the company. Lemme know! [/QUOTE]
