I liked Gaspe better, because for me, the scenery was more expansive, bigger, bolder and more vibrant. There's also more interesting roads nearby or to/from, which is also a big plus for what I want when I'm riding. I also found it much quieter along the Gaspe area, but that could be the time of...

We were definitely very lucky with such nice weather and so late in the year. That looks pretty beautiful though!

Good Luck and hope the border crossings are painless. I'm heading up to Screaming Heads and the Bunny Trail tomorrow and will be cutting across the 401 to the 400 around 6am, so I think you might be a few minutes ahead of me.

Day 6: Rimouski QC to Montebello QC Looking at the weather forecast and radar, we can see that the rain will be falling pretty hard in Rimouski until around 1pm. The storm is moving slowly from the west but isn't that big, so if we start riding west, we'll hit the end of the storm around 3...

Nice! I always thought about using the Chubby Buttons to have easier control of my music, but then I just went to the bluetooth headset, which is good enough. But for using headphones those Chubby Buttons seemed to be the best and most reliable.

I paid $31.5k OTD for my Volt in 2018 with gov and dealer incentives. That was a stupid good deal. I bought the car because I wanted to drive in the HOV lane and save time, which was more important than saving money or the planet, but given the price of gas over the last 4 years, it's turned...

My wired headphones (Shure se215) have an inline controller that I’m pretty sure allows me to play, pause, and go forward to the next track, as well as control volume. It might also allow me to reverse to the start of current track or go to the previous track, but I’m not sure how to do that.

I'll go next week and the week after, but not this week.

now you've gon don it. I'm hooked. I need to go there and get one of those stickers.

Thanks for posting those - that was hilarious!

With heated gear, I’ll ride into the low single digits. I’m not as crazy as I used to be, so no more riding for me when the temps are well below single digits.

I love it. What a great looking bike and that thing will be a hoot to ride. Congrats! Did it come with a tank bag too?

Day 5: Carleton Sur Mer to Rimouski Last night I called the Subway and they don't have my wallet. I was there for lunch around 3pm, but when I called a few hours later it was all different staff working there, so I decide that tomorrow morning I'll ride over and see if the same day shift staff...

Thanks for the detailed info. Very interesting stuff and I had a dual Kerker exhaust on my '86 VFR750 which absolutely howled. Good Luck with the Griso!

Day 4: Gaspe Loop Yesterday Zoran and I were talking about the route for today, which was to ride the interior roads of Gaspe and also ride the coastal route clockwise, keeping the water on our left. And then on our route home, we'll ride it counterclockwise with the water on our right and...

There’s so much I like about these ZRX’s, but what is the reasoning behind the weird split swingarm thing?

Day 3: Woodstock New Brunswick to Carleton Sur Mer, Quebec I've never been to New Brunswick before so I was strangely looking forward to this, because I thought it would be mostly flat and farmland type stuff, but also I vaguely recall reading that there were some hills here and some decent...

They are generally pretty standard with that type of plug, but I think BMW might use a different plug. https://www.warmnsafe.com/products/dual-remote-control-heat-troller https://www.warmnsafe.com/products/bmw-type-plug Powerlet tried to have their own proprietary plug years ago, but don't...

I have those loop earplugs and still haven’t even tried them on. I recently bought some blue extra soft foam earplugs to try out from Amazon which are the Hearos brand. I bought a 50 pack if anyone wants to try some out. They are nice and soft but actually hurt my ears quicker than the cheapo...

I've tried many different tips across many different IEM's. Most are fine under 8 hours. More than that and they hurt and at the 12hr mark they are unbearable. I rode that Solstice route for 17hrs this summer with soft foam earplugs and felt pretty much no pain. If I was a shorter distance rider...
