Next week I'm riding up to Buckhorn to drop my forks and shock off for servicing at Accelerated Technologies. Going on Wednesday (most likely) or Friday, depending on the weather and which day is better for me to take off work. They open at 9am, so I will try to be there close to that and then...

Edit - added people coming and revised route / info below. Right now planning for Friday June 20, but if it's raining, then June 19. If it's raining both days, then I'll think about doing it the following week, since I have the whole week off. Might even have time to stop for lunch...

Anyone here ever ridden to Newfoundland? I've never been before and this seems like a great way to spend 3 weeks in Aug/Sept instead of riding in the US. Asides from visiting Gros Morne and camping there, I know absolutely nothing about the Rock. Not sure if I'll do this trip clockwise or...

In 2024 I was lucky enough rent a bike and ride the California coast from San Diego to San Fran, so now I'm planning a trip to ride the northern half between Seattle and San Fran. And I've also always wanted to ride to Cali and back (instead of flying and renting a bike), so hoping to finally...

When I was a kid, we used to go out on Halloween with pillow cases to collect all the candy. There were lots of wealthy homes near us who gave out some huge amounts of stuff, like a 50pack of chiclets or large bags of twizzlers and nibs, and some houses even gave out a handful of loonies to each...

This is a trip I've wanted to do for about 20 years and finally made it happen. If you have never been to Gaspe or the New England states for a fall colours ride - go do it! Highlights: 5400km/7 days Route: ON, NY, VT, NH, ME, QC, ON Highlights: My 22 year old bike never skipped a beat. Amazing...

I think my rear shock has a very slow leak. John at Accelerated noticed this and topped it up for me a coiled weeks ago. I’ve been monitoring it and it seems like it’s dropped a bit since then - not a lot, but I figure by next week it will be a bit more noticeable. I’m going to send the shock...

I have an appt at Accelerated Technologies in Buckhorn for 2pm on Wednesday. Shouldn't be a super long appt - they are just setting up my bike's suspension for my weight, riding style, etc. If you have ever wanted to check them out - now is your chance! Taking the day off work and going to ride...

Seems we don't have a thread for this kind of stuff... I almost spit my breakfast out.

Found a very rare exhaust (Devil Shotgun) and need to fix it up a bit. The pipes are in good shape and so are the tips. Just need to clean up the carbon fibre shell on the cans and in doing so replace all the rivets. I don't care if I lose the Devil labels, because I actually prefer the clean...

Been a while since I posted up a ride and curious what I'm capable of... Since the summer solstice was way to hot to head out this year, I'm going to try that route on Canada Day. A buddy was going to join me, but an unexpected emergency just came up, so posting this here if anyone is up for it...

I might have a hall pass to head out for the day - anyone doing any long(ish) rides up north on Monday? Like Muskoka’s or Halliburton or Calabogie? I’ll be up a bit late on Sunday night, so thinking about something between 9am-6pm.

Anyone going this year? I'd also like to find a different place to stay down there just to change it up a bit. I'll be out all day riding anyways, so don't need fancy digs, but looking for motels or cabins with a comfy bed and wifi. Any recommendations for places to stay on a reasonable budget...

Gaspe is one of the places I've been wanting to ride out to, ever since I started riding and this year I have some time to do it - probably in July. Heading out from the GTA, I was thinking about going through the northeastern states to get there and then follow the south shore of the St...

The other day I went out with some childhood friends and played some pool and some foosball. Reminded me of my wasted youth spent in pool halls stealing peoples quarters and cigarettes. For a while I could beat almost anyone I played in foosball and had some good times playing in 9ball leagues...

Looking for any info on riding the coast, because wife and I are signed up for the Big Sur Marathon on Sunday April 28, 2024, which itself starts near Big Sur and ends near Monterey. We are thinking we'll fly into LA on the Friday and then head north to Big Sur to do the run on the Sunday...

Been a while since I posted up a ride... Tuesday looks to be a nice hot day with the forecast calling for well over 20deg and pure sun. Should be perfect for a fall colours blast to somewhere with lots of beautiful twisty backroads and little traffic. No gravel intended - just paved roads. If...
