nope again not correct, you have it in a straight line mine line is a bit more south and west and involves some cheese......

I can't picture exactly where you are in Canada but 740 miles for some Canucks and they could still be in Canada..

It's a pretty big country..

mushroom hunting.....is that the same shroom's as  the elusive magic mushrooms of BC fame......

Nope, I'm talking the elusive Morel variety - the good-eating kind.

Looks to me like it would put you just east of the airport in Siler City, N. Carolina...probably going to delay winter more than 7 weeks...

ok so if I move south.....oh like say 739.45193 miles south of North Bay I would move summer back, by say oh 7 weeks and a few days......so that would be cool......what is 739.45193 miles south of North Bay..........mmmmmmmmmmm

That puts you at about Chili's house, doesn't it?

I saw a couple of trees that weren't green, starting to go a little yellow. I read somewhere that for every 100 miles south you go you delay winter by a week...I'm thinking Brownsville, Texas might be a good idea!

Ours are just starting to turn too.  just a hint here and there.  I've heard the same thing about the 100 mile 1 week thing.  The same rule of thumb holds true for mushroom hunting in the spring.

Went out this morning to get in some miles before the predicted (and they were right for once) cold front/rain storm. I saw a couple of trees that weren't green, starting to go a little yellow. I read somewhere that for every 100 miles south you go you delay winter by a week...I'm thinking Brownsville, Texas might be a good idea!

John, I like your resourcefulness.  Reminds me of the movie "The Great Escape" Just a note on the amount of material needed to make these crash bar chaps, it would take a piece of material at least 45cm x 35cm.  They are double sided and slip over the the crash bar like a tea cozy.

I have a couple of leather jackets that I don't wear any more, plenty big enough for the job, cut a template out of paper first then sew it together and fit brass eyelets every two inches and feed a couple of leather shoelace strips cut from the leftover leather to lace it up..Yeah that sounds like a plan for the winter..

John.

now you want underwear pictures, were the swim suit = speedo pictures not good enough?

GB I have never ripped on you unless you need it, and count this as a need time......

Troll really wondering about people now, low to mid sixties all day, really nice and bright and sunny, got up early and got my chores done about the house and groceries done, need to kick that bad habit of eating three meals a day. But amazed at the number of bikes I spotted about town and they were all decked out in their cold weather gear, riding chaps (leather for JH) big bulky leather jackets, full face helmets, and they were all congregating at the local Timmies, (Canada's answer to Starbucks) would say saw about 50 to 70 bikes during the morning errands (0700 to 0930). Called a buddy asked if he was up to a ride, said he would be over in 15 mins. We did the Martin River loop, saw perhaps 5 bikes the whole 4 hours we were out, other then in town and around the coffee shops. Fantastic day and the range of reds and hues of red in the leaves was really cool.

Troll do they have camera's in 0hi0?

That's OK Ratman, it's nice to see this sensitive and softer side of you...  at least you're not ripping on me when you're in this sensitive mood.

Just don't start wearing women's underwear, or if you do, DON'T POST ANY PICS ... ;D

  I looked on the hill as I rode down and the sight was really nice with the lake in the background and the trees turning a cornucopia of colours and the sunset on the lake was remarkable and I was alive to enjoy it, and riding my bike......it was a moment .......sorry will not do it again
