I found out there is a vintage bike show and swap meet going on in Lynden on April 22. I am hoping to go. Any local guys planning on attending?

Had planned on attending this year, after a few non event years because of covid. Unfortunately other stuff has suddenly taken priority. The following weekend is the big one in Abby, and the weather is supposed to be good too.

Yes indeed I found out about the Abby show yesterday in Lynden. Sadly I did not take the TX down to this show as I was concerned about the weather. It turned out I skirted major rain all weekend! Could have, and should have, taken the TX!!! Next time I just will. I'm planning to go to Abbotsford next Sunday. A few of us from Victoria will make the trek.
This is my DR with my friend's KTM 350. I met him in Langley and we were at Lynden in about 45 minutes to an hour from his place. The border north of Lynden was easy peasy!
A few XS650 there. This one was pretty sweet.
At the Lynden show I met Mr. Miyagi (Steph) from his YouTube channel too, by chance. Super friendly dude.

Very nice to see that XS-1B on display....oh and the Vincent's, wow! 😍
 
Yes, those Vincents were stunning. One of the ones outside had 89000 plus miles on it and was apparently ridden from Vancouver BC to the tip of South America and back about 25 years ago.
Curiously, that XS-1B was not even in the show area but was with some parts in the swap meet area.
Raymond, I took this pic for you. 1959 RE.
