I think i have small ear canals too. I've tried on a few different ones over the years and found that the 3M E-A-Rsoft yellow neons are the most comfortable. I occasionally use them for sleeping as well. The silicone flanged plugs hurt my ears after a few hours. The Home Depot plugs are too fat...
I picked one up a few years ago. I use it as a portable charcoal BBQ mostly with the extended grill plate. If boiling water/cooking in a pan, I throw in a Trangia alcohol burner for a quicker clean up.
Don't skip Southwood road 13!!. Yes the road surface isn't perfect but it's easily one of my favourite roads within a 2hr radius. I was out there (by car) on Monday night for some star gazing/photography. The condition of the road is as good as it can get. I always plot this road on my route...
I really like this stretch from Hockley Valley up towards Kilgorie. There are lots of gravel roads in the area that aren't too challenging but are hilly and have some great views...
Although short, I found Silver Lake Road to be very scenic. If you're OK with non-paved roads, Little Lake Huron Rd near Misery Bay is very interesting. I didn't make it thru the entire road but the surface changes from gravel to the Alvars as you get further south.
I've also been using the Klim Induction for about 3 years. Air flow is great but I don't get much air flow under the back protector. I usually get a sweat spot right under the back protector but it's a small issue.
I have previously stayed at Kagawong Family Cabins on the island. The people who run it are fantastic and the place was very clean. I've also camped at Gordon's Park which is also run by very friendly staff but the firewood they sell on site is basically tree bark.
Probably the last day trip of 2019. Colours were amazing. Temperature when I hit the road was a chilly 3C. Took a route thru Southwood Rd and Frank Miller Memorial Route.
My vote goes to heated handle bar grips. I've had both. With the heated grips, all you have to do is push a button when your hands get cold. With the gloves, you'd have to stop, take off your jacket to run the wires thru the sleeves. The downside of grips are that the back of your hand will get...
I've used a heated hoodie made by Milwaukee that I picked up from Home Depot for the past year. I already have M12 batteries for my tools and they charge up fast. I had plug in glove liners before. I found that I'd always forget to unplug before getting off the bike. I much prefer battery...
