stock Pontiac Beaumont

If you have a need for speed or a desire to own a car that looks like a work of art, take heart, you are not alone.
The forty members of the Bulkley Valley Cruisers love cars, trucks and just about anything else with wheels that will inspire you to work until midnight with your hands covered in grease or paint.
Street rods, drag racers, antiques, classic cars, motorcyles, the Cruisers welcome all motorsport enthusiasts from the Hazeltons to Burns Lake. You don't even have to own a car!
