    Northern Roads

    Rode all of these (below) over the last 3 days. A bit of construction here and there but nothing that would prevent enjoying the roads. The fall colours changed dramatically Thursday and Friday with the cold temperatures. Coopers Falls Road (4Km hard packed gravel right at Coopers Falls) Housey...

    Southwood Part 2

    Been on Southwood 6 times since May and its has improved each time. Just rode it yesterday and there is only one small patch left with sand. That's in the middle section. There's a 2 Km stretch (again in the middle section) that is packed gravel. Not too bad but it slows you down. Quite a few...

    Housey Rapids Rd closed at Teopoli

    Friday Sept 13th. Right at Teopoli a culvert colapsed taking out the pavement. It had just happened and they let us go through but there was barely enough room for a motorcycle on the left edge. Full baracades in both directions. I suspect this will be closed for a couple of weeks as they have...

    Kushog Lake Rd...Minden, ONT

    Rode it this past Wednesday. South to North. Its clean and free of sand except one ajoining contruction road near the top end. The leaves are just beginning to fall and as mentioned in another thread it can become quite slippery (leaves) later in the Fall.

    South Bay Rd reconstruction

    I would say its "tar and chip" now. Nothing indicates any further construction. The original tender stated "Type of Work: Grading, drainage and granular base" Honey Harbour Road which leads directly to South Bay Road has been resurfaced recently and is very good.

    South Bay Rd reconstruction

    Much better now. Rode it today. The gravel has been ground in and pretty much disappeared. Stay in the left track, watch for oncoming traffic, and obey the "Brake for Snakes" signs !!

    South Bay Rd reconstruction

    Rode it yesterday. The whole road is loose gravel. Rideable, but not enjoyable.

    M Test with brake light blinker

    Unless you want to get into this type of discussion with your tester I would suggest disabling the blinker for your test. Turn it back on later.

    Can-Am Spyder...a motorcycle?

    Just to clarify its not a CVT transmission. There are two transmission choices both are traditional geared. The SE5 a semi-automatic. Rider shifts up with the paddles, it shifts down. Rider can also shift down. The SM5 is a traditional 5 speed. 1 down, 4 up +reverse. Hydraulic clutch on the...

    Can-Am Spyder...a motorcycle?

    Well my wife has one and loves it. After low-siding on her Vulcan to avoid a Truck in her lane (surgery and broken ankle) she never felt comfortable back on two wheels. The Spyder solved all that. I still prefer my V-Strom and I find the Spyder difficult to ride but she has no problems. She has...

    Muskoka day-ride route - suggestions?

    Great additions, try and fit this in. the 518 - tally-ho-swords - Ravenscliffe. I think better than Southwood. Coopers falls Rd to Housey's Rapids Road then into/through Gravenhurst and back to your original route. This would bypass Southwood. County Road 11 down the west side of Kushog Lake...

    HONDA CANADA Reserves Manufacturer Booth Space at the 36th Annual North American Inte

    Perhaps we in the GTA are fortunate to have 3 (or is it 4) motorcycle shows but I notice that both Kawasaki and Honda have booths at the Vancouver, Edmonton & Calgary shows. Those 3 western shows and the December Toronto show are run by the Canadian National Sportsmen’s Shows. What does the...
