The acoustic rock band from Vancouver came together between two singer/songwriters,Tim Tibbitts ,Kal Mollison.The Miyazaki House (formerly the Longford House) in Lillooet, British Columbia is an elegant house built by Caspar Phair in the 1880s. It was partially modelled after Mrs. Phair's previous home, Eyrecourt Castle, in County Galway, Ireland. The gardens originally reached down to Lillooet's Main Street. A.W.A. Artie Phair was next to live in the house, though he let the gardens deteriorate. In collaboration with the head of the local British Columbia Provincial Police, Phair brought Dr. Masajiro Miyazaki from the Bridge River relocation camp in Shalalth to Lillooet to replace the local coroner in 1945, and Miyazaki served in that capacity and, although only an osteopath by credentials, served in the capacity of doctor and dentist, and by 1945 was living in Longford House in 1945. Dr. Miyazaki bought the house legally from Artie's son, Harold Phair, in 1947, when the ban on Japanese Canadians buying and owning property was lifted. The house was then used as Dr. Miyazaki's office until he donated it to the community of Lillooet in 1983.

BC DH21
At A Glance
Great motorcycle roads are not only about endless twisties and perfect pavement. This remote, historic highway shows why. Character is the key to this DH. From canyon cruises to wide sweepers to lakeside squiggles, the diversity of the spaced but steady curves is matched only by the ever-changing landscape. Beginning at Lillooet, the famed Mile 0 of the old Cariboo gold trail, you trace the route of the pioneers along the spectacular Fraser Canyon before turning east across a high plateau toward the white cliffs, green valleys, and azure lakes of the Marble Range. The thousands of miners who ventured this way in the 1860s and 70s are long gone. However, if those original prospectors had experienced this road on Buells instead of mules, they'd have come back. Again and again.
