Okay, I'm still having problems trying to get the old link to work, but for now, if you happen to forget the exact address to the site here, just go to my main site at www.artinsanity.com and click on the WLMA banner. :D That should help for now!
Site is (kinda) operational again. What happened before you ask? Serious problems with the former webhost. -.-; So I moved the site. you'll probably see how it says wlbikers.artinsanity.com , well that's cause the biker site is now on my own, I should be able to make it nice and easy for you all soon! ..I hope. ^.^;

Despite the nasty cold weather we held our Show & Shine/Bike Games on May 08, 2004. While it wasn't a big turn out it was fun and I'd like to thank all of you who braved the cold to come out show how tuff we Yukon riders really are... Way to go all of you!

Q.B.
In other news I'm messing with the layout again, yay me! XP It's driving me insane, in all honesty. I hate tables, I really do. Oh, message to Dewey- Can you email me the links to that newpaper webpage you told me about? I tried looking on your page, and promptly got lost. ^.^; Though I did copy the forecast button, I thought that was pretty interesting. One last thing, the hit counter had to go,
A) It was bugging me
B) It's totally innacurate
So yah, I'll add a better one when I can find one.
Sorry to everyone for the delay in getting this on the page - spring is here and my mind has sprouted wings and is off flying in the wild blue....
Turkey Shoot: We held our first fund raising turkey shoot at Lakers Pub on March 26th and it was a great success. A very big THANK YOU TO LAKERS PUB for all thier help and assistance. Thank you to the Watson Lake Rodeo Association for lending us all your equipment. As well a thank you to all the "shooters" who paticipated, hope you all had some fun! WAY TO GO CARSON - HIGH SCORE OF THE NITE! (p.s. welcome to the association, looking forward to riding with you as soon as you get your bike here!) And of course a big thank you to all the members for thier time and help putting this on, 'cause as usual your hard work made it a successful and a fun nite.
Hope everyone will come out and join us in our 2nd Annual Show & Shine & Bike Games on May 8th, 2004 (please see upcoming events page). It's free admission so come on out, show off your ride, and have some fun.
Thanks again everyone
Ride safe
