- July 18, 2015, 15:35:40 PM Ok so made it to Windsor on the first day, waiting for Aralph to show up and we will have a mini Canadian Drift In tonight, and go for some food. So rode 685.5 km or 426 miles, and learned that at 170 km I will be forced to switch to reserve.
Morning started out cold and very overcast and fog, but once I got down south a bit the fog had burned off and the temps went up and it got hot. Bike ran like a swiss watch and was doing really nice, think the bike was upset by the one dude who asked what version of the Victory it was. 2 really good accidents if they can be called good, in the one I got a picture of the motor home was a write off. The second was a truck losing its load. Strange but not a lot of bikes out today....
Also a picture of why I don't like Toronto....

- July 17, 2015, 13:43:23 PM So I really like what JetLite is doing with this topic thread and so I'll steal his idea and beg forgiveness from him later. I will post about my ride to and from Drift In.
Today the bike got parked facing the front of the shed, it is gassed up, chain was adjusted last night, my fuel cells are full, everything is packed on the bike but for my small top roll which will go on later today.
Feel like a little kid again on Christmas Eve waiting for morning to open the gifts in my case to get on the road. I have my route all planned out now. Tomorrow I am hoping to be in Windsor ON and then met with aralph and so another member of the forum.
Just thinking of the people I'll get to met who are large and well known to the members of the forum, I'll get to met them in person....so cool.
