    I Saw You: V.2.0

    I wish it was like a beach! There was a fair amount of sand as typical in spring. What was as bad was much of it was heavily frost heaved so very rough. I kind of expected it butts very surprised anyone else was as silly as me to ride it now. :) Btw I was on 507 a couple of weeks ago. Bottom...

    I went out for a little ride yesterday. iIt was +8 when I left home in the afternoon. Fun playing in the wind gusts! Temps dropped quickly in the last hour from +6 to -2. Cold hands when gassing up near home (should have left my gloves on!) -12 on the way in to work this morning. ..Tom

    It's all about gear. I'm comfy enough that down to -10 or -15 the only thing I have to think about is the possibility of snow or ice. I did see one other bike. Not sure what it was (I think a cruiser but was quite a ways ahead. Was riding along Mount Albert sideroad west of Sharon and pulled...

    Doesn't really matter unless it needed an oil change. If it is time for an oil change the best thing you can do for the bike is go for a decent ride to get everything nicely warmed up to operating temperature (ie sitting there idling isn't the best thing to do) and change the oil when you are...

    I did about 250 km on Sunday (rode around Lake Simcoe) and about 300 km Monday (Basically rode to Campbellford and a few little side trips.) It was -3 to -5 most of the day yesterday and non-backroads were in great shape. On Sunday hwy 27 around Barrie had some sketchy spots with some drifting...

    Nice ride in this morning! Heading home last night and heading in the morning is was cold enough that the bike temperature display said "lo" in the half of the ride near Port Perry. So it flips to "lo" when it gets below -10, and seeing that the display is 2°c optimistic, that would mean -13 or...

    Last week I flew down to Arizona to spend some time with my daughter. While she worked I rode around on a rental bike (Yamaha Super Tenere'.) Did about 1,200 miles/ 1,900 km. Nice bike and always nice riding around Arizona! Rode in to work today. Start late on Wednesdays so it has warmed up to...
