Cowtown Delica? Hoping for a show-and-tell from an owner.

Post by xocomil »

Hi there.

I'm in Calgary for a few weeks visting my folks from overseas and was hoping someone could show me their Delica. I've been thinking of buying one for a trip to Central America next spring but would like to get better acquainted with the machine.

Please let me know if anyone's around at the end of next week.

Many thanks.

Dave

Sure I'm willing. I've had my delica for all of 9 hours now, so I know all about them :-P

I'm not around on Saturday, but any other day can work. Be advised that Monday is a stat holiday, so many things are closed.

Ruminante, congrats on your new ride! 8-)
xocomil, I'm around all this week, except for Sunday if you wanted to drop by. I'm in the SW near Bow Trail.
Cheers,
Jon

Thanks Jon, I'm really just grinning non-stop. xocomil, I'm in the SE, in the Glenmore Trail/Macleod Trail area, but any excuse to go for a drive works. Perhaps we can arrange that all three of us get together in one place, then you can see 2 samples!

Sorry to take so long to reply; I was out at my Delica seeing :shock: what it looks like at night, and checking out the interior lighting. Didn't drive it, so haven't checked the headlight aim.
Hmm, can't think of ice cream place unless it is the one on 19? Street and 21? Ave.

Pick a time and day, I suppose we should ask xocomil when would be convenient for him.

I might join in as well. I think we're only missing Green1 and then everybody will be there.

What day are you guys meeting...???

Oops I meant 41 Ave, so I was close.

I don't imagine it will be hard to convince him to join in.

So, xocomil, you could end up with a crowd. Name to day and time! (Just not Sat. if you want to see mine.)

I'm sure I could join in depending on day/time (my schedule is awkward)...

last time I stopped at "my favourite ice cream shop" it wasn't there any more... (but that was a year or more ago, so it may have re-opened now...)

anyway, I'm sure if you post a time/place on here you'll have at least 1 or 2 show up :)

Or join us for the trip on Sunday! Then you can see them in action. If you can't do the trip, you can always come to the rendezvous to see them.

Otherwise, sometime next week can work.
