Where did you ride today ???
- Thread starter Major
- Start date
Fresh page - 
- lovely day out. Watched the tennis then over to Milton to buy an HD box - looped up the back roads to the Forks.
Lots of bikes here as well - Late lunch/early supper - spicy samosas whew - then who knows were the wind blows. Nice the heat is down.

I feel the same way about my Nikons but I just can't sell them I love my F2.8 zooms. When I am on my bike nothing beats my 18-200.
Google "mirrorless camera" that will explain how they work. I looked at going mirrorless but the price of quality lenses is the same as sticking with a slr so I decided keep my Nikon. I did not want to go with a smaller sensor.
I don't agree with megapixels only being used to compare cameras. There are so many more variables.

I just imagined doing a wheelie up the church aisle (bible/cross in saddlebags), drifting around the casket and screeching to a halt behind the altar. "Dear friends in Christ, we are gathered here today..."
Up 27 for me, west towards Hockley for lunch, then some gravel road zig-zaging towards Shelburne and back again. I encountered a three-car STEAM TRAIN just outside of Beeton (South Simcoe Railway, I think). Very cool.
The skyscape was awesome. All sorts of different clouds.
Just to re-claim the thread, lol.
Rode from Durham along Kingston road to south end of Scarborough. Rode up to Malvern and along Twyn Rivers back into Durham and along Rossland home. Kinda boring ride except along Twyn River, but at least got out on the bike. Also, Mom cooked for the visit so bonus.

That's at the consumer level not at 4:3 and SLR where optics and electronics rule. Your link is very old as well in digital terms. The4:3 you are talking lens in the same price range as SLR. There is far more to the sensors than purely pixel count - the point was the 4:3 have the big and high quality sensors and lens - not just the SLRs.
But I can drop it in my shirt pocket - you can't do that with an SLR. It's just a different approach and allows a more compact body - that's a good thing for the kind of photography I like to do from a motorcycle.....yet I can still get very high quality and have the lens choice. Works for me.....and many others as it is a growing form factor.
Not quite, but I have ridden my motorcycle in collar and robes
Was parked at a bar in Long Beach after a charity ride, had a guy walk up to me, look at me, shake his head and go this is so wrong, so F**king wrong on so many levels - then he laughed.Yesterday I walked to church, after service an 80 something year old lady told me she was upset my bike wasn't there. She liked it. Guess I gotta ride every Sunday to keep them happy.
On the subject, yesterday I rode to Tiger Direct in London (via backroads). What horrible selection and service, sad store.

Left Friday night about 9:30pm.
Did a golf weekend at the bosses cottage in Wasaga.
The temp really dropped once I got out of town.
For the first time in 10 days I was actually cool.
It's a nice ride...Elora, Fergus, Shelburne, Singhampton, Wasaga.
Golfed Monterra after the rain stopped and it was a perfect day.
Left Sunday morning 8am and took the same way home in the daylight.
Really enjoyed the ride home.

The back roads behind the busier sections of Pickering, Ajax, and Oshawa are really nice for escaping the traffic. Coronation Road has a tempting stretch Concession Road 5 has a nice 90 degree turn, and then I hop up onto the 7 again to see where it takes me. There are lots of little side roads to explore, but some turn into gravel. I don't bother with heavy traffic. The smaller roads are more interesting!
Although I did see the same popo patrolling. We met up in opposite directions each time. And then there was the guy in his huge pickup that thought he had to pull allllllll they way over into oncoming traffic to avoid two bicyclists. Twat.
