Hi Oomis; I read your trip blog that your link points to but didn't get how many days you spent? Looks like 17,000 km. or thereabouts? thanks, d.

Hi Marcelo; I actually have a copy fo the M test that the instructor uses which I could e-mail you somehow? There are several tips for it; not to wobble or roll when you stop; make sure you use the lane that leads to the inside lane on a left turn when there are two left turn lanes; being a...

thanks for the post - I was there and the road closed but couldn't get any real info; talk of cars involved etc. - sad to hear of one vehicle accidents on motorcycles but they are, sadly, very common.

I agree with you on IMT Bikes - I rented a BMW 650GS for two and a half weeks from them in Barcelona; comes with three luggage cases; unlimited KM's; travel anywhere in Europe; roadside assistance; and insurance. Left my luggage with them and packed my almost brand new bike and took off -the...

yes, I watched it all, great editing and music!

great link, thank you! and yes, Canadian residents can camp for up to 21 days for free; non-residents must by a pass = 9.95. However, I am sure it said no Indian cooking allowed.

I have done the east coast via the Adirondacks and it was great, enjoy!

not sure why you are taking the ferry, I understand Chicago avoidance (bin-dere-done-dat); but it takes you out of your way and the ride from the other side is nothing special - I don't see North Dakota on your route which is good as the fracking out there makes it, well, a fracking...

here you go!

hey thanks; sounds somewhat what I imagined, but forgot about the moose/deer thing; and radar sounds a bit more unforgiving than we are used to down here. weather is something that is hit and miss. last year I left for the east coast via new England; hit a monster thunder storm just outside of...

yikes, was thinking of about a 5 day ride...lol, thanks!

Just checking to see if anyone has done this ride (approx. 1300 miles from the Soo and back around to the Soo again). http://www.lakesuperiorcircletour.info/map.asp Info, suggestions all appreciated.

this link does not work??

Some General Info: I did Spain/Andorra/France (Barcelona up to Normandy - back down to the Cote d'zur; back to Barcelona) a few years ago. I would recommend simply renting a bike there as: it is not horribly expensive; you get a pretty new, detailed/serviced bike; unlimited km; roadside pick...

beware of parking on the sidewalk - some bikes do it and get away with it, but you risk a $50 ticket. It doesn't matter if you park on the cobblestone part of the sidewalk - what matters is if your bike is 250cc or less; then you are legal. anything over that and you get ticketed. I ride...

I am wondering if I could get a guest pass to come and photograph the event at track level and possibly from the infield? thanks in advance, d.

I would say it is totally worthwhile - all education/training is worthwhile IMO - I have asked the police here about it but they don't have a course available for civilians...they only train police riders. they say the police are the best 5% of riders on he road...so if you can take a...

Am planning a trip West near the end of June from Toronto to at least Calgary. Good Motorcycle route info would be much appreciated. If someone were interested in joining for the ride that is also possible (I will be camping for a lot of it - KOA's mostly). - thanks in advance.

nice pics Blue, assuming you panned this? shutter ISO and app? -
