After a very sweet road trip down east in the van with GF she's back in Aus and I'm itching to ride.
I'd do an overnighter but have a big day tomorrow with some new Macs being launched.

20 out already heading to 29 - :D Who is going where??
With a west wind will be cooler along Lake Erie but did one longish ride down there already.

Maybe just point north see where I end up - wander some back roads.
 
Gorgeous day out - tons of bikes and bicycles up at the Forks - there is a major bicycle event of some sort west of Mississauga in the Britannia Road area so lots of roads blocked.

OPP cruising around the Forks and Erin - take it easy in the area.

I think its one of the ridess for Cancer, we kept running into hoards along the Niagara escarpment. Every time we took a turn to elude them we would eventually find another pack. I think it is great when they can get so many people out for a good cause, but often they were an endangerment, riding 4-5 wide into oncoming lanes and not moving. Stopped at an intersection controlled by weekend cops, i made a comment to the guy directing traffic, he told me yeah, but they raised $18M... I guess that gives them the right to endanger themselves and me.

Hope they did well on the fundraising,

coming into Grimsby, we came across a rider in distress (Kawi Vulcan Drifter) trying to move his bike, turned out he went to pull over, lost his footing anfd dumped his bike. Car coming down the access too hot locked up and nearly hit him, he and another driver started cussing him out as he was inconveniently in his way.

somewhat eventful ride, okay breakfast in the middle. wish it could have been longer, but have some things to tend to early this afternoon
 
Lovely day to ride up to York Soaring and get a demo flight like this girl is.

Not far from the Forks and some nice back roads to ride - flights should continue all day but earlier is better.

General area is HWY 6 and 9 east of Arthur about 5 minutes.

Just got back from my first large group ride (about 60-75 bikes) in Waterloo. The ride for Veterans and Service Dogs. Ride was road captained by 1st C.A.V. Motorcycle Unit. Was a good time with an ecclectic bunch of riders, young and old.
 
Number of familiars up at the old Shed - was surprised how long I was out - misread the temperature gauge for the time ....was 5.30 not 3.15 ( 31.5 )
