Not looking at slab or highway - prefer to poke about on the back roads.....
I'm Mississauga based and can play hooky
Sundays early good - some Sat - maybe one day a week.....
Want to get some ride time in so duration more important than distance.
Found a free wifi spot on the popular motorcycle routes local or touring? Add to the list> here

Cool - glad to hear from you .....and you're not far. Any particular areas you'd like to hit?. I'm game for suggestions.
from 2.30 to dark is good for me or if it's warm enough 6 am to 11
can take a full day on occasion for a longer jaunt
Leisurely ride to Forks - the across north of Guelph - very weird - RIDE stop on a very rural road just outside of Fergus....
Not sure what they about....officer stuck his nose inside my helmet took a sniff and sent me on my way...
Cruised over to Royal and turns out it is biker Thursday and with the holiday - lot was packed.
Burgman had some interest - apparently the Guelph dealer only stocks the 400.
lotsa bikes
so so food but was cheap and a good cause
nice to see "my era" bike still roadworthy
then the heavy iron....no appeal for me at all - always liked the mid range....but some good looking machines.
made a nice break for a 6 hours outing - lot of it spent vegging at the Shed
New ride is settling in nicely - first time I had tunes with the new helmet - worked out well riding with the wind....bit noisy earlier heading into it.
Still fine tuning the gear. Enjoyed the ride tho - gorgeous day .....still is....might be a very early morning run tomorrow if it stays nice.

Have two scalas. What happens if we go out riding and your voice is annoying?

If anyone is out in the Cambridge area over the weekend SOSA is hosting the Canadian National Soaring Competition - keep an eye on the sky - saw several on the ride up to Stratford
Busy glider port this morning
You wanna talk carving turns, we do it in 3D
Nice relaxing day over west of Arthur....dropped into my other sailplane club for a break.
found out they have a package to get to licenced pilot for about $1900 all in .....that's a good deal. Info here if anyone is interested - hey take a demo flight.....I did and ended up a pilot a month later.

And you think mcycling is fun....you ain't seen nuthin till you do a wing over at 7,000 feet and chase the hawks around.
Damn I miss it at times......but the Burgmans fun too and not so weather dependent.
7 am and gorgeous out - waiting for the Shed to open for morning latte.
Hate the thought of traffic tho at end of day.
8 hours later - back at the Shed after a nice loop up through terra Nova to Blue Mountain area and then back down the Beaver Valley road
very busy coming south now and hot........most riders in short sleeves including me. Boots are hot too.
Going to head up to the forks later do around 3 or 4. Another beautiful day.

Hah - a new sailplane pilot on the go.....Thom traded his cruiser for a 3D version for a few hours today on his way to pilot status by end of summer or sooner.
Instruction on the controls
big grin
off the ground.....he'll do this himself ( with instructor aboard ) in a very few flights.
on tow and will release a 2,000 feet and he'll be flying.
Instructor will land it the next few flights as Thom progresses....
Great day today to take a trip to Arthur - very good for soaring.
Might head up to the forks later this aft, got my helibars, ram mount and power and new stebel horn installed. Nice day to test everything.
