That could be my mantra for most of my research. I used to say I didn't "fish" for information, I'd look where I knew I'd find something, but these days I just let things flow and that leads to other things.
A couple 1971 ads: one for Cariboo Motorcycles on North Road, which ended up in Port Moody and has recently closed. Dave Wildman and sons owned it. And another for some snowmobile rentals, and a half mile oval track just east of Hope.
Triumph motorcycle dealerships ... there must have been dozens of them in B.C. at one time. One of them, Syd's Cycle in Trail, which also sold a Harley or two over the years, when it too closed made the poetic transformation from motorcycle dealership to funeral home.
