First Ride

#1 Post by silverstrom » Sun Jun 09, 2013 6:55 pm

Finally did my first ride of the year. Took the big girl out to stretch her legs. Lots of fun. Almost ran over a bear. Just the usual stuff.

That is right outside my door. Miles and miles and miles of it. You can go for hours here on quiet roads like that.

I did my first 2 stroke ride of the year today. Put 100 km on the 500. Lots of fun, but this wonky ankle makes shifting a real bitch. I had hoped to be riding in early May, but old age and stupidity saw me rolling my left ankle. The healing is "painfully" slow.

I'm checking out a Contour camera in Toronto Sunday. If it works out you may see more of those roads from a very different point of view.

This is how you turn yourself into a hooligan.
