    Penn run August long weekend

    Outside of most big cities: Toronto, New York, Buffalo, .....I find most places are safe. Not all the world is full of crooks and thieves. Get out the greater Toronto area and enjoy the better parts of the world. As for a cover: for what?? Something extra to carry! Use the bathtowel to wipe...

    Any touring groups?

    I agree somewhat with this and what some have said about riding solo. It is often better. Generally I do not get lonely. My aproach: - have a bike in good working condition - take a cellphone just in case - get a hard copy map so no reliance on electronics working or not getting a signal...

    how old is too old?

    I agree. Newer does not necessarily mean 100% more reliable. Same for cars. I remember a few years ago a dealer had a new GSXR & a new ZX9 for sale. They were both sold around the same time. At approx 1,500 km's the ZX9 blew a connecting rod out the side of the motor. The bike had not been...

    Cute road stories

    Not if you like bike riding. Sounds like a normal weekend type trip that I and many riders I know of on all kinds of bikes do routinely. Sounds like it was a great trip.

    Was that you at the Tim Hortons in Minden approx 4:30 pm, maybe 5 pm.? There were 3 bikes parked 3 spots to the left of you. One guy asked you if your bike was an '04. If so that was me.

    Velocity VR-Pro Gloves

    Jimmy, Thanx for the feedback. The fact they are double/triple stitched in places is comforting. It is not the end of the world and they are handmade by humans and things happen plus machines have difficulties at times. Will monitor obviously. Otherwise very nice gloves.

    Velocity VR-Pro Gloves

    Have worn a new pair approx 5-6 hours total on various street rides consisting of approx 0.5 to 1.5 hours at a single time. On 2 locations on the gloves I noticed yesterday that individual threads are pulling out looking like short hairs. If this continues they should have great ventilation soon...
