Hard to verify with that odometer, but it's absolutely possible to do with any bike as long as you're willing to do the necessary maintenance. Most people aren't interested in keeping a bike that long.

Old Henry: An old farmer, his wife 10 years gone, lives a hard life on an Oklahoma farm raising a son and keeping to himself. A train robber drifts onto his land an inch from dead so he takes him home and nurses him back to health, horse, loot and all. Turns out this robber ripped off a...

Just received the USPS tracking number from California Heat. $20 US shipping. So, this should be a go-to for anyone who doesn't want to deal with UPS/FedEx/DHL extortion racket.

Dune: It was sort of okay. Much better than the 80s movie, but still a fantasy for kids. This is the first of a three-part series I understand. It's more like a Red Sonia formula with much better effects. String-bean hero kid taking on 'roid-o-muscular dudes is hilarious Saturday matinee...

I just did an order from California Heat. They say they use USPS, but I have been told that before by shippers and FedEx or UPS arrive at my door asking for money. We'll see what happens. Not all USPS facilities in the U.S. accept international shipments. Some are far away from the shippers...

Might go for a jaunt in the country Saturday. Not interested in fighting with the holiday shopper traffic in town. Salt on the road yesterday, but I'll just power wash it off, then park it.

But could it survive on the 410/401/400?

Amazon just refunded my order for Sony WF-1000XM4 ANC earbuds. :mad: Said it was because of BC freight embargo. Suddenly dons on me how serious this is.

Yeah I think the parts that are behind the dyke.

Okay, so here they are. This was the A.V. Roe plant on the day I did a delivery, about a year before they tore it down. I would have liked to take more pix, but there was security and cameras there so I didn't know if they would object. The vid you posted is the inside of the facility...

None of the homes in that area qualify for insurance. There are good reasons for that. It's a flood plain and it always has been a flood plain. A flood plain is a flood plain, spring, summer or fall.

Getting more about this now. It appears that all the burnt out trees from the forest fires and bad forestry practices are exacerbating the problem. Crickets in Canadian media about this. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2021/nov/16/canada-floods-fires-logging-british-columbia

Pix of the back of the old A.V. Roe plant on Derry Road, Malton just before they tore the place down. I thought it was a shame, since it had so much historical significance to Canada's aerospace industry. Edit: sorry, can't get them posted. I guess the site can't handle them. :confused:

Wondering if they're a spin-off of Flair Forwarding, a big freight-forwarding outfit that used to be out of Toronto Pearson Airport. Probably started their own airline.

Going to look into the Black Diamonds. Might be a buy.

Hope they send that 92 year old guy for another driving test. Not entirely comfortable with him getting back behind the wheel.

Picked up a set like these, except with a wider gauntlet. Ride all day without getting wet or cold. Ice fishing gloves, 100% waterproof, 100% warm for those late October rain storms. They survive the bucket plunge test BUT...they're not MC gloves so though you're warm and comfy you lack the...

Very nice. "Waterproof, breathable Hipora® lining". Oooooh. But...that's the lining. Again, we have the salesman's play on words - "Oh no, we said the lining, we didn't say the gloves..." :ROFLMAO: Since you own some, can you tell me if you have done a couple of hours in pouring rain with...

Those gloves are the bomb. Absolutely everything you could possibly want, including a ritzy price to brag about. But I'm not spending $400 to find out they're lying. There's absolutely no doubt that Gore-tex is waterproof, but I can't find enough buyer's reviews on the internet to...

Okay, let's take a look at that ad. They are careful to refer to only the material used (100% Hydratex) as waterproof. Not necessarily the gloves themselves. Noticed this in almost all the ads for motorcycle gloves, the rest are pretty much lying. Short minutes after plunging those things...
