Well I made it up to Quesnel (or however you spell it).  I found the town's internet connecton and I must be quick as this text message will likely take up the entire Northern Caribou bandwidth....

During the trip up we made a pit stop (OK, one of many bladder induced) at Cache Creek.  I have a question for Tom - have you ever been to the Dairy Queen in Cache Creek?

I'm not sure if there is a hobby shop in town yet.  I was looking for the phone book but I think that's what the problem is - I should probably be looking for something along the lines of a pamphlet rather than book....

Don't get me wrong - its not like there is nothing to do here.  I just have to recharge the batteries for the RC18....  :)


Well TTYL all you hard-working-but-dedicated-enough-to-check-the-IROCC-web-page-at-work-every-five-minutes people.

Maybe.  Any particular reason why?

I have some not-so-fond memories of the one in Princeton, since that's where I stopped immediately prior to busting 10 bones as a result of a momenary lapse of reason.

I'm not sure if I've ever been to Cache Creek.  If so, it was when passing through, which perhaps resulted in a pit stop similar to the one you described.

Well inscribed on the bathroom wall said:

"Tom from Victoria took a 'poo' here"  [Edited for content]

so I though maybe it was a message to let me know you had "passed" through the region..... or at least "left your mark"....

(and no I don't have way too muich time on my hands.....  ok, maybe...)

Kurk, there is an off-road club in Quesnel. They were the proud owners of IROCC's original AMB system which was sold off in the down days of IROCC in the mid 90's. Last time I tried to update the software, they still were the registered users of our original program that went when we sold the AMB. I think the clubs name was Quesnel Dirt Burners but I'm not certain.
