Where did you ride today?

[W0QNX]

Thanks for the ride report ST1100Y. You gotta keep a sharp lookout for those cow pies in the farm land! I get the comment often maybe even daily when wearing my mesh gear in the summer, "that looks hot". I just agree since it take less explanation.

Woke up this morning to a weather forecast of 'Flood Watch in Effect'.
So.....Let's Ride!!!




Made it to within 5 miles of home before it became 'moist'.

Rode a small portion of the MABDR, including an expert section.

Interesting, Chuck.
The Feejer is not the first bike that comes to mind, when someone says "let's do the Trail Ride."
Context is everything, eh?

There is a dirt rode called Old Falls River Road that starts near the park entrance and ends at the Alpine Center, It is one way up the mountains. But this year it is closed for repairs. This past winter was not nice to it. When it opens again , that will be a V-Strom ride in the early fall after tourist season. Too many out of staters right now during the summer..

I am visiting Ontario Canada this week and decided to ride one of the top recommended roads due to the no. of curves in Northern ON. Its in a place called Muskoka (cottage country) and road itself is called Southwood rd. 36 KM of sheer beautiful, curvy roads that was an absolute hoot to ride.

33 km of uninterrupted twists and turns make this route to Muskoka one of Ontario's best motorcycle roads. https://www.northernontario.travel/motorcycle-touring/best-roads-in-ontario-southwood-road-in-muskoka

Is that a speed camera on the Bell dish to the left of the Bala sign?

no. its an old school dish antenna. In Ontario, there is a law to display visible signs where ever a speed camera is installed and the camera's themselves look different like the example below.

York Region expanding automated speed enforcement

Data shows cameras reduced driving speed by 12 km/h near Newmarket High School, where the one camera in Newmarket currently operates

i don't want it to just sit so i've been taking short rides on it once a week lately, some days are better than others for me

 

[ST_SVK]

I was riding today as accompanying bike at local bicykle race to close roads and to supervise that everything goes well. Really great experience. 6 Hondas at all (+1 CF moto ), one ST1300.

 

[Sadlsor]

I've been a bike race Marshall a few times, and it's always been fun for me.

Then again, I'm not pedaling.

Some here will remember ShawnK, who's left the forum, but he is heavily involved with finding and supplying marshalls for triathlon events.

Bringing back memories of my trip up and down the Dempster back in 96. Are you turning around at Inuvik, or are you now going further north to Tuktoyaktuk. Back in 96 there was no road from Inuvik to Tuktoyaktuk. Safe travels and be careful if the road is wet with calcium chloride. Slippery as snot.

 

[drrod]

Going all the way to Tuktoyaktuk. Forecast is a bit iffy but fingers crossed that there is not much rain. Of it rains a lot we will be stuck in Inuvik until it dries out.

Got to experience the Dempster mud today
Made it to Inuvik. I don't think I will ever be able to get the bike and my bags clean!
