You're right, the HD site lists the Brick as the departure point but I suspect that is an error.  Quesnel Jimmy Dunlop Memorial Toy Run traditionally leaves from Sylvia's Caf? on the Nazko road (42 km).  See https://www.facebook.com/princegeorge.hog/posts/343651205769048 and http://quesnelchamber.com/event/32nd-annual-jimmy-dunlop-memorial-toy-run/
It's a nice ride and the weather forecast is promising.

Nope, it's Jimmy Dunlop. Jim was a local fellow killed in a logging accident on the Nazko road in 1990. I can't say I really knew him; he was a little younger than me; but I remember him from our high school years.

The Quesnel Toy Run was fun.  Neil and I rode out there and found that Ted was already there with Josee.  It was a bit of a mixed bag with the weather.  Not very warm and there was a bit of rain, we missed most of the monsoons.  Thought there might be about a 100 bikes.  Warm coffee and stale doughnuts at the end. 



I live with fear and danger everyday, but sometimes I leave her at home and go motorcycling.
