Nam's 530 is real - I know, he bought it from a friend of mine.

I think he can handle it - he's actually quite good off road and that's with his cb500x Frankenstein thingy - I'm looking forward to seeing rock out on a proper bike :)

Now get ready for the Dacre and Roaming Rally with a bit of Bethany first :)

It's about time grasshopper - congrats.

Nam, I start riding as soon as possible, yes depending on weather and wetness on trails.

In my experience, you'll never be happy with just a hammock so do both :) and yes, I avoid the bottom opening ones. To me, that seems as logical as pissing into the wind. im surprised your wife didn't say "someone wrote all that?" :)

Dacre and Corduroy are both on my list for this year. I've got to be a bit careful though as I'm currently planning to race the Baja Moto Rally in October and I had knee surgery this past June. My knee isn't totally quite right and I've got to figure out if I'll need some more surgical tweaking...

LOL :) not it trying to push hammocks onto anyone. To be honest, they're very good but not for everyone and I'm not convinced they offer a better sleep than the traditional tent approach but they are compact and light and one way to avoid having to find a proper clearing for your tent when wild...

Take parts off my bike? ***** can try...I sleep with one eye open :)

I'm dying to find a blue plated Ktm 250/300...

Come on Scooterboy, come do the big bike route at least. It's a total party every evening.

Yes, I suspect you'd be ok on the big bike route with the CB500 (aka: FrankenHonda)

I said that because he has expressed to me his interest in doing the aggressive routes (non-jeep and non-big bike).

Not with your CB500x :)

Not quite Romaniacs - it's just another multi-day trail ride :)

Anyone here planning to do the roaming rally this year? http://graveltravel.ca/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=123:roaming-rally-2016&catid=12&Itemid=150 If you're not familiar with it, there are two course options: regular (big bike friendly) and aggressive. The aggressive...

Keep a keen eye on this forum in this section for rides updates (as well as www.odsc.on.ca in the casual rides section of their forum). Many of us ride weekly if not even more frequently...

Well ill if you're French then you have a better chance of pronouncing my name properly compared to the Anglos who just assume I've misspelled my own name and just call me Alan - I've even had people ask me if I'm sure that's how my name is spelled :)

From what I've heard from friends, the trans-lab is just a very long gravel highway - if that is the case, I, not really interested. I'd rather ride proper roads or proper off road and while I don't mind gravel, I'm not sure I'm interested in hundreds of kilometres of it...

Amazing - Newfoundland is on my list but I'm not riding to there from Toronto on my little 530...
