    Worth it to move up in cc?

    I regretted not keeping my 250 for another year, when I learned. It forced me to shift constantly, which started giving me an ear and a feel for the engine, and was good training for the future. The bike that followed could be left in second gear, and as long as you could move off, it would go...

    This weather

    Beautiful day today in Ottawa. Too bad I’m still tired from the weekend. Should be ok on the bike tomorrow if the weather isn’t sh!t.

    Jen’s been at IT again! No outages near Ottawa, unless Rogers was down again.

    A frugal comms set up...

    I ended up getting a built in communicator on my Schuberth. The price from Europe was less than the helmet and communicator here. At that time, you couldn’t buy a European Shoei. Now you can’t buy a Schuberth from them either.

    Buying gear from Europe

    Getting the full VAT back in Firenze airport is difficult. The method is antiquated compared to other places. Store owners tell you to mail them in, but the mailbox is outside, down near the taxi stands, and the guy who’s supposed to stamp them doesn’t anymore and immediately directs you to the...

    Buying gear from Europe

    View from our room: Haven’t seen any shops yet that specialize in motorcycle gear. Last time I made a special trip to the Ducati store, but I don’t own a Ducati. We’ve bought some leather goods as presents, but nothing I’d use for riding. We did a pasta making course near here, and sitting...

    Buying gear from Europe

    In Firenze now. Won’t be bringing back any gear. It looks like the online shop I bought my SCHUBERTH from, doesn’t ship to Canada anymore.

    High speed trains

    I’m just thinking that I’d be travelling to Toronto more often if it was 2 1/2 - 3 hours and more reliable. Roaming through Tuscany has me thinking of @mimico_polak.

    Smell Test

    Showed up in Toronto yesterday, and noticed multiple people who want to smell good, but seem to have lost their sense of smell. You don’t need to bathe in it, and if you put on too much, it is much worse than too little. One woman sat on the subway and proceeded to spray so much on herself...

    When in Rome

    Heading for Rome on the weekend. Should be interesting, but was supposed to be just fun. Our trip to the Vatican on Tuesday might be canceled, but we haven’t heard back yet. Hope I don’t get bumped out of my room by Carney or Trump’s entourage. I had thoughts of renting a bike, but I wont...
