    Pennsylvania during Weekdays, and in Mid May

    We're back! (Last night, actually). First, thanks to everyone in this thread, and all the other threads about riding PA. It made the trip easy to plan, and we had a GREAT time! (Definitely going back.) We took 400/16 on the way down. It was a relaxing ride (even though it was a little too...

    Currently drinking pints at The Laurelwood. Life is good. Roads are awesome.

    Pennsylvania during Weekdays, and in Mid May

    Unfortunately, we're going earlier in the week (looking at Tues/wed right now, but that predicted low of -3 makes me a bit nervous). I promised my family I'd be home for the long weekend with them.

    What's your favourite 500km+ route from the GTA?

    I've just started using an old Galaxy S2 and Copilot app as my GPS. So far, it seems pretty good. I haven't tried it yet, but I'm told you can take the GPX files and use ITN Converter to convert them to the TRP files CoPilot uses. (I have converted the other way successfully, and don't see why...

    Riding the Canadian and maybe US Rockies - recommended roads/routes

    I went to B.C. for the first time in June of last year. (Unfortunately I ended up in a rented Camry...) We drove Hwy 1 from Vancouver,through Hope and on up to 97 which we took to Prince George. From Prince George, we took 16, across to 93, until it met back up with 1. We stayed in Canmore...

    Pennsylvania during Weekdays, and in Mid May

    Thanks for all the tips / info, everyone. With that, it looks like the only hard parts now are going to be getting the weather to co-operate, ang getting 3 people's schedules to line up.

    Pennsylvania during Weekdays, and in Mid May

    Ok, so I'll pick my days based more on weather, than weekday / weekend. Most of my route planning seems to be coming from this thread: http://www.gtamotorcycle.com/vbforum/showthread.php?188167-Where-should-I-go . After reading that, I kinda thought you might help me out about traffic, etc...

    Pennsylvania during Weekdays, and in Mid May

    I've got a week off Mid-may and was starting to plan a 2-3 day trip down to and around Pennsylvania. My thoughts are that weekdays would probably be good (less traffic, better room rates, etc...)? Is that a safe bet? Also, does anyone know what the general road conditions are that early in the...

    Old Motorcycle Helmets

    Your local fire department may want them. They sometimes use them for training on how to safely remove a helmet at an accident scene.

    GoPro questions

    It's fine for what I do, which isn't much. If all you want is a basic camera, it works quite well.

    GoPro questions

    I have an older HD Hero, with a 16GB card in it. On HD resolution, I'll get a couple of hours of video. The battery will die before I come anywhere close to filling the card. I usually mount it on the bike somewhere (Rear spool, rear footpeg, frame slider, beside one of the mirrors.... Most...

    I think you may be getting this confused with emissions tests.

    M2 exit question

    I know the CMA course in Stoney Creek does NOT supply bikes for the M2 exit. (I believe it's the only one in Stoney Creek). I'm fairly certain all the M2 exit courses expect you to supply your own bike, insurance, etc. Rent a bike for the weekend?

    keyless fuel cap?

    I have an Evotech gas cap. Keyless, latches, and seems to seal well. I'd get another one.. https://www.motomummy.com/images/products/secondary/etgc-1.jpg

    Ugh. Sorry, Becks. Something has just come up, and I won't be able to make it. Next time......

    Burlington ride tomorrow July 19

    I'm not picky. Walkers / Dundas at 11 works, I can work my way home (or past) from there. I don't know the roads well north of Dundas, but can follow (might be able to bring one more with me from Dundas). Contrary to my profile pick, I'll be on a black zx6r.

    Do you mean tomorrow, as in Sunday, the 20th? I might be in, if the weather is decent. Time? Place?
