Title: Saturday ride
Post by: kilowop on April 06, 2024, 08:01:08 PM
First of the season for my new bike, left over 2022 V-Strom 650.  Half dozen riders travelled from Kamloops over to Falkland and met up with 3 riders from that area.  No rain, but WINDY much !!!
Some discussion on the upcoming Distinguished Gentleman's charity ride for Cancer.  Kamloops group going to sponsor our second ride along with the rest of the world wide Gentlemen's Ride. We had a small but successful ride last year., hoping for even more participation this year.
CHEERS

I've been out 4 times so far.  It's still a bit chilly in the mornings but fine in the afternoon.

Dreamcycle opened this weekend!

Riding a smaller dual sport is NOT the same as riding a big WING or Harley.  Wind is NOT your friend.  Just glad I wasn't riding my '81 Suzuki 550 Collector bike.

The morning was very windy but the afternoon was much better.  I was out on my bicycle for an hour in the afternoon.
