Just picked up a great little twig burning stove from MEC. I have fuel burning ones but they always seemed like overkill once I'm in the woods. Like I might as well of brought a tv. This thing folds up to the size of a cd case so it fits on a bike pretty easy. For sleeping bags The MEC drake...

really? guys really? I rode it every month. I'm being sarcastic. keep the tire side down.

waiting till june. -it's too dangerous to ride right now. cagers aren't expecting us to be on the roads. -there's too much salt. -tires won't stick -anyone excited to ride right now is just a newb that doesn't have 10,000cc's.

Yup. Bell makes a snow one too. Ive got a non heated double wall and its worked fine.for riding down to minus 3. after that the edges begin to fog up and youd need electric Sent from my SGH-I896 using Tapatalk

Ya. Bell makes it. It works great. Sent from my SGH-I896 using Tapatalk

Not sure what hes talking about. I have an ssd in my work and home.machine and they make an amazing difference. Win7 and a macbook pro. The drive is the largest bottleneck Sent from my SGH-I896 using Tapatalk

I don't have a hose during winter so what I do is a large spray bottle and the chain cleaner brush and a cloth. you really do have to keep an eye on the chain, did a test and didn't clean it for 4 days after some heavy salt riding and got rust spots. nothing I couldn't clean off, but you gotta...

if your helmet has a snow mobile shield available that's the best route. some do, some don't. I think hjc joe rocket doe and bell does. maybe others, haven't looked. I have a bell so the second best invention beside the auto tint visor was the double walled visor for snowmobiles. No issues in...

Always a fan of DIY. very cool. the RECON is out now and pretty cheap. $250-400. it has gps, lcd, speedomoeter etc, fits in ski goggles and has a wireless controller with big buttons. MEC has one on display. I'm sure it would be simple to adapt to a motorcycle helmet even with just some tape...

Glad you're ok. I'd usually say Don't let anyone that hides their bike from rain and rides 3 days a year discourage you from riding. that being said... I had a wake up call when I was laughing to myself in heated gear all cozy and loving my january ride, and then 2 cars crashed 3 feet from me a...

soon it's been mild so winter will seem even shorter... I rode this week, and it'll be +7 soon, so I can't really say I've got the blues but yesterday 2 cars crashed 3 feet from me at parkside/lakeshore. so I'm done for a bit. people drive like like they're confused as to where they are. hug...

I feel the same, I'd be to scared about getting hit by some idiot trying to speed through every which way but I'm still jealous.

I didn't ride today for obvious reasons. dude at my work with a BMW F800gs DID ride today. man I'm jealous. I've tried in snow and it didn't go well. I know he's been riding for a few more years than I have though so i guess he can handle it. one day.....

I'm surprised more people didn't ride there. there were only about 30-40 bikes parked up front (unless there was another bike area elsewhere) yet there were about 400 people in motorcycle jackets wandering around. I guess it's important to let everyone know you're a biker even if you don't ride...

I am still commuting to work. Its no big deal if the roads are dry. One guy at my office building that rides a bmw f800gs rode on tuesday when it was -15. now that im impressed with. I left the bike at home that day. Sent from my SGH-I896 using Tapatalk

1st year is going to be expensive, but it's the following years once the bike is bought and gear is bought where thins atleast level out a bit. there will always be repairs and upgrades though. it's then that the free parking and better fuel efficiency and sometimes cheaper insurance will help a...

more people die from drunk walkign than drunk driving LEVITT: For every mile walked drunk, turns out to be eight times more dangerous than the mile driven drunk. To put it simply, if you need to walk a mile from a party to your home, you’re eight times more likely to die doing that than if...

+1 for the bell vortex but also +1 for having to try things on. It might not fit you. The vortex made my shoei rf1000 feel cheap and tacky and the rf was 3x the price. Got the vortex at the jan show last year for 110 all in flat black. The good thing about the vortex is the padding all comes out...

Sorry, what I meant ronnie was that the bark busters AND grips might be enough. the problem that grips don't solve is the outside of your hands, which is the part that needs the most amount, not the inside. if you've gone this long without gloves that's great! but... you don't know what you're...

if you can get some bark busters or something you will fair better. otherwise even with those you may find your fingertips cold. problem with grips is they don't heat the outside of your hand which is the place all the col air is hitting. they also don't heat your fingers when you're at a red...
