I went to two of the Hamilton Moto social events and they were pretty good. I have no real interest in going into GTA, and since COVID I think I have been into Toronto proper maybe 3 times and to be honest it was 3 times too many. Just cannot handle the traffic - the older I get the less FK's I have to give.
August Moto Hamilton @ Aquanova Brewery: This was an excellent location as Frid is a dead end street that runs parallel to a main arterial road so it get little through traffic. It is easy to get to from the 403/Red Hill Expressway, or Burlington Street (it will never be Tesla Blvd to me) , although the construction on York Blvd downtown was a real pain but there was alternatives to get around it. I went home with an assorted 8 pack of cool new beers and got to see some pretty cool bikes - win/win in my books.
Sept Moto Hamilton @ RAW Roots in Stoney Creek: Old SC has a very picturesque town vibe surrounded by city. Several large parking lots were close to the coffee shop, and King St is not that busy so getting in and out is quite easy. The tent with the entertainment was a nice touch, but my only complaint was a coffee shop with no milk or cream!!?? Call me old school but I do not want almond milk or soy milk in my coffee
After a long winter I know I will probably be looking forward to the May event - hint........Brant Street in Burlington, King St West in Dundas or Westdale would be good meeting places.

The Toronto turnout was pretty good considering the weather, with a nice mix of bike styles: supersports, scooters, cruisers, ADVs, and everything in between.TORONTO - The Moto Social

But even with the “measures” they put in place to discourage "questionable" behavior, the broccoli-heads with Jerry-pot helmets and the dive-bomb bros still found their way in.
Nice seeing a familiar face, @High Flya
Nice to catch up again with @PacoT
Numbers are well down from the pre-last minute location reveal days, maybe 40-50 bikes at peak time.
The RClub "clubhouse" is kinda cool though.

I was there at 7-8PM had a coffee to warm up picked up a some beers to bring home and then left. Compared to the Sept 25 turn out in Stoney Creek and numbers were very very low. Probably only 40-50 bikes at the peak.........chilly ride home along Plains Rd. - thank god for heated grips
