En route vers Calgary/ On my way to Calgary

Little ride.

I used the tools I had in a plastic bag in my swingarm bag last night and I guess I forgot to close the bag back up properly.
Eventually, the plastic bag and it's contents bounced out and Peter was able to avoid them all.
I think we were able to retreive all of them all.

A few miles later, a big deer jump out in front of us. Not close enough to be a problem but enough to make me slow down for a couple miles.

Then 2 assholes on crotch rockets were being assholes and scared us and a few others by passing on a blind uphill while popping a wheelie.

Then we had lunch.

Holy crap this was a busy week.

Tough Girl.

She looks tough, but it's just an act, she's all cute and bubbly.

We went for an adventure in our backyard

Blind spot

Still there but nearly invisible.
The car is right there next to me.


If you want to pass a truck on the right side, especially in (or on) something small, think about it.

Nice short ride.

382 kilometers.
Swapped the LePera Barebone for the Mustang Vintage wide so my ass wouldn't protest too much and off we went.

There is no such thing as "The Original Six".

Here is something that bugs me.
There is no such thing as "The Original Six".

The NHL started in 1917 and had 5 teams.
-Montreal Canadians
-Montreal Wanderers
-Quebec Bulldogs
-Ottawa Senators
-Toronto, called the Arenas but officially didn't have a name.
And only 4 of those teams played the 1st season, Quebec didn't field a team, most of their players were in the Armed Forces and gone to war.

In Boston got in in 1924 with the Montreal Maroons.
New York Americans and the Pittsburgh Pirates entered in the 1925.
The New York Rangers, Chicago Black Hawks (now spelled Blackhawks), and Detroit Cougars (now known as the Red Wings) entered in the 1926, raising the number of teams in the NHL to ten.

Quebec moved to Hamilton and folded in 1925.
Ottawa moved to St-Louis and stayed till 1935.
The Pittsburg Pirates became the Philadelphia Quakers and closed their doors in 1931.
The Americans were done in 1942.
The Maroons in 1938.
The Wanderers lasted only 2 season.

The "Original Six" didn't happen until 1942 after a World War and The Great Depression, 25 years after the creation of the League.
I don't know why there is such a "hole" in the NHL's history.

There is only 1 "Original" team, and it's my favorite, The Club de Hockey Canadien de Montreal.
