Quite pleased my gloves arrived today https://fortnine.ca/en/revit-sand-4-gloves They are on sale at Fort Nine for $111 including shipping but not sure about tax. They cost me $28 cdn here plus $11.50 shipping via Aliexpress.. Wanted these for a while but they are $$$ here - they seem to serve...

Woke Tuesday feeling fine a 6 am had brekkie and by 9am was in ambo into intensive care Been very long time since I’ve been that sick and it hit like freight train Walked to bedroom. Could not get warm gasping for breath teeth chattering like hypothermia Could barely get a message to partner to...

I've been riding for 60 years and hope to have a few more but I noticed lately I'm using it far more as a vehicle for short errands and actually enjoying that as opposed to going out and riding for a few hours. Now it's good for me as I get rusty after a couple weeks not riding so any time on...

https://www.cbc.ca/news/world/japan-travel-canadians-1.7512756 Apparently the yen is well down against Canadian and it's only 12 hours to Narita. Lots of tours and rentals available. I occasionally think about how different life might have been if I'd spent the money on a Japan ride for a week...

Nice relaxed day at Lake Barrine THEN I noticed my heartbeat monitor going stupid - 130-140 bpm - and I have been sitting for the better part of an hour. I can't feel anything wrong but that's not good. I wait a bit but not going down so I slowly make my way to the bike and cautiously ride the...

Used to be we would have a nice meal out in a decent restaurant a couple or 3 times a month. We bought the coupon books supporting rescue dogs and made our 50% off choices, Now - aside from my $5 Hungry Jacks deals - it simply does not seem worthwhile and we don't buy the coupon books...

I have been very happy with my now 3 yr old used Samsung I scored for $169 used with no remote. That's still a decent deal for name brand but not exceptional anymore...

Now this is Honda oriented and I'm partial since my first real motorcycle was a 305 Superhawk in the 60s which this charts the progress to. Feel free to drop in informative history vids of others marques...perhaps the decline and fall of British motorcycles.....the Brit marques at least appear...

https://obituaries.stcatharinesstandard.ca/obituary/john-fredrick-clare-1092723102 He was my best friends golfing partner for many years and I have fond memories of hanging around Clare's Cycle early in my riding days. Was pleasantly surprised they survived through the years and still going...

I'm just reading The Bikeriders which the Netflix flic is based on and this footnote caught my eye. 1909 !!!! I've mainly stuck with stock mufflers even buying a stock can for my brief dip into BMW land ...a G-310GS which I recently sold. I was quite happy when the CB500F I'm currently riding...

There is a guy in Western Australia still riding his 2014 CB500F with 304,000 km on ...he's 87 so inspiration for me. This tho...:oops: - and it is gorgeous. I assume 600cc?? But it could be the rare I've had a couple of rides over 100k km and there is a legendary Vstroms around with over...

Enjoying my new toy. 44 mm face, GPS and cellular $60. Still a big learning curve. :D Got the fall alert set up useful both at home and riding. Gotta love rich folks selling their cast off tech for cheap. some cool stories I'm certainly a candidate for the fall detection at home due to my...

https://mayhemcafe.com.au/# Noticed a trend to putting up lovely looking menus but no prices here in Aus. Makes it a bit hard to figure out where to eat or what to eat. I can see maybe at a Michellin eatery but a coffee spot??? :unsure:

Bought these for $64 Aus delivered with 60 day returns. https://au.ripplimpactgear.com/products/apex-rides-1 They are motorcycle specific That's not far off the cycle shorts and I like the design. https://motogearreviews.com/rippl-seatclouds-review-do-they-actually-work/ Have been using...

Geez, $80 for a chipped Honda keyblank, $20 to have it cut to match the main key, $80 to have it coded. Just for a spare key to run the bike. :eek: I guess there is no way to disable the CISS anti-theft system.

There has always been a laughable issue with the C3 where the visor will not stay in a partial open position. The company claimed it was a safety feature.....nah just a bad design. Can be fixed for $35 here and annoying but will suck it up. It will be the third one. There are a couple of hacks...

We are a day ahead so 6 hours to go. Partner house/dog sitting the kids for them to have a night out and no driving concerns....I'm sure they will imbibe their share. So almost Happy New Year.... 🍾🍾 Will watch the fireworks in Sydney The official website The official Sydney New Year’s Eve site...

Don't think it had anything to do with the 737 that crashed as far as a fault with the plane. But simply bad optics for the beleagured company. It IS a strange crash :unsure: https://edition.cnn.com/2024/12/28/asia/south-korea-plane-crash-intl-hnk/index.html
