Asphalt hugger

1 per visit - Virtual OK - Posted Apr 10, 2017

I'm a retired H.S. teacher and since retiring, I've widened my opportunity to enjoy the summer (my favourite season) by learning the fine skills of biking - as in motorcycle. I've travelled parts of Canada & the U.S. My most memorable trip has been my trip to The Tail of the Dragon near Robbinsville / Deals' Gap in North Carolina/Tennessee! Drove there and back and did the tail on Highway 129 4 times ... was blown away by the photos that had been taken my the photographers ...
I'd like to share about roads, trips on and about the bike. I don't belong to a group ... I find being part of a group goes against my need to enjoy total freedom from starting, biking and stopping when I feel the need ... which is often. I've been with a group and that was awesome ... the camaraderie is great and many conceptions of bikers in general quickly faded! The average biker is the first to stop and offer help. The conversations are kool.
I don't have a service per se! I only offer information about biking in and around Ontario, Canada - which is where I live. I would just like to exchange experiences and info re biking ... tricks, road trips, scenic roads to travel, etc.
I'm not a mechanic but I love to take care of the bike and keep my toy in great running condition!

Training & Qualifications


I've been biking since 2007. Within the 1st year, I got my M1 (written test) and M2 (short riding abilities, took a course, and underwent my 1st trip into Quebec to visit family. In spite of being told I was nuts to do so - a 1K kilometre trip to Quebec - only 2 months after getting on a bike for the 1st time ... I proved to myself I could and I DID!
Since, I've met a few new buddies and enjoyed the Tail of the Dragon with a best buddy!
Biking is an experience and it is a lifestyle for 7-8 months of the year for me. Winters are cruel! lol
If you want to share your stuff and want to read mine ... get in touch!
BTW ... I've only driven metrics - Yamaha & Honda. I've tried others but not for this asphalt hugger! Currently have a 2013 Yamaha 1300 V-Star. My toy!
