    1-3 day ride this week?

    The weather is looking pretty great for both Thursday and Friday. I'd for sure be down to join on Thursday and if I'm still in town on Friday, I'd go as well on that day. And 700 km from Aurora is about 800km from Mississauga, so that's a great ride. I'm fine with whatever:) By the way - the...

    1-3 day ride this week?

    Unfortunately our flight was at 8:30am today and it was cancelled last night. I took the refund instead of trying to get a rebooking. It was just a for a vacation and we've been there many times before, so we are fine to just go another time and let people who really need the flights take them...

    2025 Day Trips!

    If you are just riding over from Wasaga it will be fine and beautiful for the ride through the park, but camping will be sold out. Beaches will be busy and there will be lots of walkers/hikers in the park too. Fall is a really beautiful time in that park too. Here's a nice little route for you...

    1-3 day ride this week?

    I was flying to BC tomorrow and the strike killed that trip. Since I'm off for the next 2 weeks, looks like the family and I will go away for a few days on Friday, which means I have the next few days (Tuesday to Thursday night) to go riding! Anyone up for 1, 2 or 3 day ride somewhere? I'm up...

    Cheap helmet review by Ryan F9...options under $200

    For years I rode with Shoei GTAir (original) and a modular Neotec (original). All I wished was improved out of OG versions was the sun visor to drop a little more and the main visor to stay locked open at just a crack. I then bought the GTAir 2 and kept the og Neotec. I recently bought a...

    Great experience at Ottawa-area dealership

    I heard they have good ones somewhere up north. Sounds like a good excuse for a ride to investigate.

    Best Ride Eva!!!

    lol Do they sell spoked rims in typical street tire sizes (180 & 120)? Add some Dunlop Mutants and a couple guys with bigger arms than me to pick up my bike and I'm there.

    How's the condition on that one now? I haven't been on it this year and it's the perfect excuse to go riding.

    Monday Aug 4 - Lunch in Calabogie

    Thanks - I had read that there was some construction on 16. If it's only 5km, then I'll still go on it and just take my time, because the rest of that road is so nice now. And I agree - it will be the best in the province for sheer twistiness once it's fully finished.

    Monday Aug 4 - Lunch in Calabogie

    Haven't been up to the Redneck Bistro in a while, so riding up to Calabogie for lunch this coming Monday. It looks to be beautiful out with 30deg and pure sun, so perfect day for a ride. Small group of experienced riders only, since this has a fair amount of twisty and hilly roads. Should be...

    Every Thursday Group ride. Steels and finacial dr Mississauga

    Hey I'll be in Grand Bend all weekend too. What time are you riding at - maybe I'll pop over and watch for a bit. I'll be at my buddies cottage, playing pickleball and other cottage sports at the water's edge. I have to prepare my lungs and liver.

    Single layer motorcycle jeans/ denim pants - where to buy?

    Thanks for that. I was reading more about the newer D3O and see they now have a Diablo armour which is supposed to be even better than the Ghost for protection, but on par for lightweight and flexibility. I just ordered some so hope I like it.

    Single layer motorcycle jeans/ denim pants - where to buy?

    Scored a pair of new Klim K Fifty 2 pants, but without the armour. Now just have to decide between getting the ghost armour or the regular D3O L2 armour. Anyone tried both before and have a preference?
