My name is Peter Knowles and I've just arrived in Victoria where I'll spend the next few months.
I thought I'd introduce myself and inquire about any events upcoming.
I see there is a section for the Island, I'll post there as well at the risk of being guilty of cross posting.
Best cheers all, hope to meet you.

Awesome, love your blog! If you are on the mainland you are welcome to come by for a pint and a meal and park in the yard, we are in Chilliwack.

Welcome to the big island Peter! I remember checking your blog waaaay back when you started! Can't believe how much you done. Looks like an experience of a life time. Are you here with the trailer as well? Where in Victoria are you staying? Would love to meet up over this festive season for a round and some stories. I will PM you my phone # and email.

Thanks for the welcome Matt,
Yes the coach is here, just hauled it over the Rockies! I'm staying at WestBay Marina, there's an RV park there too.
I actually lived here briefly on a sailboat 36 years ago!
Look forward to a pint.

Just got into watching some of your videos on Youtube... I'm at part six of the Chevy engine swap - fascinating stuff!
Hope to see you around on the Island while you're here - I'm restoring a 1963 109 up in Parksville...

Thanks Doc,
The series drops off as soon as the truck is on the road.
I'm actually working on a wrap up episode and intro to the new series right now.
The truck has been amazing.
Look forward to meeting you.
Cheers
Peter

What's the best way to contact you Peter? Was thinking of meeting up for a coffee tomorrow morning around 9:00? My friend (Mike) and I will cruise by in his Dormobile. There's a couple of good coffe shops close by depending on your level of coffee expectations!

Hi Matt,
Coffee sounds great, if it's at all nice I'll be walking around the harbor much of the day.
But I'll have the truck nearby so I could meet anywhere.
