    I will never...

    If you go south of the tcan the ride is much better. I enjoyed the prairies BUT you have to get off the tcan. Everybody just blasts through without taking a little bit of time to really see the land, the small prairie towns and the people. Just dip south at Winnipeg , and take the road less...

    Got 2k in my pocket.. what now? Or should I wait..

    As long as a bike has been serviced as per schedule,there should be no issues with mileage. I bought a bike with 100,000 k on it once and it served me very well. I have also sold at least three bikes with 100,000 k on them and it’s all about the servicing.

    Got 2k in my pocket.. what now? Or should I wait..

    Unless you are very good at wrenching. have a lot of patience to wait for parts or have deep pockets, STAY AWAY from any “ premium” brands like KTM, BMW ect. The 390 is a sexy looking bike but warranty claims for it are huge. It’s a cheap build made for a different market. BMWs are nice bikes...

    Gore-Tex lifetime warranty works!

    My tcx riding shoes are stitched with waterproof on them. They are by far the least waterproof footwear I have ever owned. What’s my recourse? None.....it’s the last none gore item I will buy for riding. The gore warranty is worth every expensive penny.
