    Re: Algonquin Fall Ride

    Thanks.

    I saw the report saying that the color should be peak this week/weekend. Last weekend was only 70-80 with 10% leaves falling.

    Looks like you guys had a good day. Who's riding that slow-looking red one with the helmet hanging off the mirror?

    I'm going to give Algonquin a try this weekend. I've been invited on a big camping trip, and will send the gear up with my fiancee in the car. She can take the 400 series roads, and I'll find some backroads on the bike

    Thanks for inspiring me to do this ride guys! I hope I don't freeze my nuts off this weekend. Sunday is supposed to be nice, 14 and sunny.

    Most motorcycle problems are caused by the nut that connects the handlebars to the saddle.
    Faster, faster, faster, until the thrill of speed overcomes the fear of death.

    I know, I was poking the bear. You, riding the proper colour, should be the first to realize that everything is faster in Silver.

    Ha! MacDoc's avatar is misleading, it is his former bike. His current one is pearl white, a slow color...

    (To MacDoc: don't worry, Shewie and I have this long standing discussion about which color is faster...)

    S'okay Bob, white is still faster than red. How was the road through the park?

    White is stealth mode It "looks" innocent
    The Burgie is quick - not fast.
    Maybe when the 900 comes around we can say faster.

    Tiburon - how are you riding up ?? Might tag along on a day trip if you have an interesting route in mind.
