2024 Day Trips

[timtune]

FOC for noonish. Anyone else want to meet up with myself and @LBV?

 

[timtune]

Nice day for a ride and good to meet @LBV
Per @Wingboy We stopped at Higher Ground where the one poor girl took forever, since she was doing EVERYTHING. Not sure if she was changing into to gloves between sandwich making and cash so I was glad I was just being handed an empty paper cup.

 

[LBV]

Nice to meet you too @timtune . Here's hoping we get another day or 2 like this but not for the next 14 days it appears.

Very familiar scenario.

Oh booo. I didn't realize FOC=Forks of the Credit or I would have come out.

 

[LBV]

Oh booo. I didn't realize FOC=Forks of the Credit or I would have come out.

In hindsight, today would've been the better day as roads are dry ... bike got splattered but I had time to wash both bikes when I got home as it's been on my to-do list for a while.

Are you joking? I thought that abbreviation was rampant here.

Reason #87 for owning a KLR: Dirt looks just fine on it.

FOTC and you may have nailed it.

 

[timtune]

OK. Yes there is a difference but I thought I'd seen the shorter version here.

Probably is but my brain didn't make the connection.

FOTC = Forks Of The Credit
FOC = Fack… One Corner?

Good. Now do Tatlock, Ompah, Centennial Lake etc.

I have to try this seven hour route next year:
Kanata Town Centre to Kanata Town Centre

That's a great route and South Lavant Rd is in amazing shape for the most part.
I added a bit more if you don't mind an 8hr route: Kanata Town Centre to Kanata Town Centre

Ur a madman. Here I am celebrating a 150km round trip to Skybury on the new to me bike. Mind you it was in the 30s;

Pretty much the best area to Fall ride imo. Hoping the weather cooperates enough to let me ride it in the next few days.

I hope you're not looking for fall colours on that ride. It's all but gone up here.

No I hit it mid-October for an awesome ride already. I’ll just try to get there one more time because I enjoy it so much.

 

[Sunday Rider]

The leaves turn perfect and then a couple of days of strong winds and then the show is gone. Reminds me of this
