WELCOME TO FRED FINDS RIDES!

This blog is dedicated to help guide you to some awesome deals on used motorcycles, ATVs, boats, sleds and RVs! From scouring KIJIJI to digging through local classifieds, I'm always on the lookout for a great find.

My focus is in Western Canada - British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba. This is where I provided my expertise through my career. We'll also be mixing in some fun guides from our expert content creators in addition to the standard "buyers guide" type posts. I hope you enjoy reading along!
