    2025 - Ride to West Coast

    I won't hike or go to the bottom of the Grand Canyon. My folks used to spend their winters in Sedona/Cottonwood for 10 years, so I've been to that whole south side a fair bit. I've also been to the south rim and stayed at Bright Angel before, so this time I just wanted to see the north rim from...

    2025 - Ride to West Coast

    Perfect and thanks! I'll keep it just the way I had it then. Also added in Death Valley and the Grand Canyon north rim.

    Best Toronto Motorcycle Show

    If you were a Canadian vendor, would you invest the time and resources bringing a bike that may not sell here for a while, or possibly ever sell here, just so dreamers could check it out, or would you spend that same time and resources on bringing bikes to a show that your customers can for sure...

    2025 - Ride to West Coast

    Thanks and added - looks perfect and pretty much right on the way. Thanks and already have Yosemite included on the way home and will avoid the weekend. Heading west from Dayton, I was going to take the northern route via the 14Alt like this: Dayton to WY-120 Is it more worthwhile to veer...

    2025 - Ride to West Coast

    In 2024 I was lucky enough rent a bike and ride the California coast from San Diego to San Fran, so now I'm planning a trip to ride the northern half between Seattle and San Fran. And I've also always wanted to ride to Cali and back (instead of flying and renting a bike), so hoping to finally...

    Thank you both for those tips and nice bike Macdoc. I love Lebanese food! Don't want to hijack this thread so I'll start another for that ride:)

    2025 rides. Where the **** are you going?

    Yes sir. That was a must to include and feels like there are 15-20 bucket list type roads on this trip.

    2025 rides. Where the **** are you going?

    Since I took very little time off work this year, I'll have a lot of vacation time in 2025. Hoping I can take 3-4 weeks to ride out to the northern half of the Pacific Coast Highway, from Seattle to San Fran, since I rode San Diego to San Fran in 2024. Along the way there I'd hit up Mt...

    Make a difference this Christmas

    This is a great idea! When my Dad was staying in a retirement home, it was unfortunate how many people there had next to no visitors.

    North American International Motorcycle Supershow - Jan 3-5, 2025

    I'll be going this year, especially since I'm off work until Jan 6th! I'm looking forward to doing a slow walk around the place - normally I get through the show pretty quick, but this year I'd like to take my time and talk more people working the show. Also looking forward to sitting on a...

    What is your opinion on Tattoos?

    I got mine done by David Glantz at a studio in Parkdale called Bobby5. David then opened up his own shop and now has a studio called Archive Tattoo on Dundas West, very close to Dufferin. http://www.archivetattoo.com/ David does excellent touch up work and restoration as well, but there might...

    What is your opinion on Tattoos?

    I have 2, on on the back of each leg, from heel to upper calf, done about 20 years ago. Had mine placed there, because at the time I was dealing with many landscaping clients every day in the summer while wearing shorts and wanted them to see me with a clean look as a first impression. I...

    Perfect bike:-Next best thing???

    I don’t have as many bikes as some of you or change them out as often as others, but I’m always looking. Every single day. It’s weird too because I’m just not sure that any bike does all the things I want from a bike than my current ride. If I had a double car garage I would definitely own a...

    At what age did you start riding?

    Started when I was 29. Couldn't care less about bikes and just got my license as a bucket list thing. Never had any intention of buying a bike or riding after that. A 100 bikes could ride past me and I wouldn't even look up. Took the course at RTI and sucked big time, but still got my license...

    Used Market Change?

    lol my Dad was a Buddhist and this too shall pass! And they were pretty chill parents for sure. And I did a lot worse than that - that was a 2/10 compared to other nonsense I did, but never got in trouble for any of it.

    Used Market Change?

    hah that was me! When I was 16, just got my license and my folks decided to take off on us for a trip around the world using my Dad's insane amount of airline points. Asides from the 2 keg parties we immediately threw with 350, then 600 people showing up, they let me drive my Mom's car for the 6...

    Used Market Change?

    My 83 year old mother in law was recently buying out her Honda at the end of the 5 yr lease term. The Meadowvale dealership where she originally got the car had a policy that they must do the safety if processing the buyout at their dealership. Otherwise she could find a different Honda...
