Its supposed to be pretty nice weather on Saturday for the end of November! I am not giving up yet! I thought I'd post another one of my Niagara rides and see if there's any late season experienced riders still out there.
Saturday Nov 26th - Niagara backroads. Twisty roads from Hamilton to Niagara Falls and maybe the Lake Erie shoreline, or do a similar route back to Hamilton. This ride is for Experienced riders, no Newbs or 250 Ninjas. I lived in Niagara for 20 years and I have a great circuit put together out there.
I'll be at "Markham Station Restaurant" in Scarborough at the Plaza at Shepherd and Markham rds at 9:15am, they serve great breakfasts 24/7, show up if you want to have a bite or coffee and chat before we ride.
We'll leave at 10:30am and stop in Burlington at the Walkers line and Mainway Timmies at about 11:15 or so, for fuel and to meet other riders from that area who show up - they have to post up on this thread so I know to swing by there.
The pace for this ride will be somewhat normal on the highway to "Highly spirited" in the backroads (not sure what that means, but it sounds good).
Once in the Falls around 1-2pm, we can see who wants to bail and get on the highway and return, or who wants to continue on to Port Colborne, Dunnville,Cayuga and Caledonia, then back to Hamilton then Toronto. We'll be back in Toronto about 5pm (or sooner if you have to bail, I can point you to the QEW at any time during the ride), I will not monitor this post past Friday at 5pm.
Minimum bike for this ride would need to be atleast an SV650, and that's if you can ride it well. If you're on a smaller or slower bike, don't show up because you will not have fun. This post is not meant to turn into a debate about the capabilities of Newbs and their bikes and no one should take personal offence to this exclusion.
I will only monitor this thread until Friday at 5pm, otherwise, we'll see you Saturday morning.
