Going off the road in Golden Ears Provincial Park
Enjoying the scenery
Riding above Stave Lake, a redneck paradise for dual sport, quad and 4x4 enthusiasts.
Nella seems a little sceptic.
Rivers and streams
My little off-road experiment went surprisingly well, and I am a bit proud of my little dual-purpose thumper.
Wow, Sonja, you're really getting back into long distance riding! What are you training for?
ReplyDeleteRight now, I'm busy to find a way to change the wind management of my F800GS to be able to do more than 30 minutes highway speeds without headaches. I took the large Aeroflow screen off again and I'm back to the OEM. Headaches are gone, but as the wind now hits me right at neck level, it's a bit too loud. Searching for a screen from an F650GS now for summer and something different than the Aeroflow for longer rides and colder weather.
How is this working out for you so far? I have to use ear plugs now on every single ride because of the short windscreen. No chance of riding without them. Ah, sooner or later I find something.
Really nice landscape, Sonja! Nice riding for a 4 hour stretch. Keep up the good conditioning program!
ReplyDelete@Guido: I don't go much at highway speed, mostly keeping it between 70 and 90 km. Since I rode naked (bikes) most of my life, that bit of wind flowing through the windscreen doesn't bother me so much. Actually it is the earplugs that seem to give me the headaches. Hence instead, I wear a bandana covering the ears. And yes, the training has a higher purpose ;-) more coming soon.
ReplyDelete@Mike: Thanks, I am certainly motivated.
ReplyDeleteHi Sonja,
ReplyDeleteBeautiful scenery! I guess all this rain is good for something. :)
Four hours - Good job on the long distance training and some off roading too!
Very nice shots of what looks like a great place to ride. Is four hours about one tank?
ReplyDeleteBreath-taking photos! Thanks for sharing! Can't wait to hear what adventure is coming for you. I'll be watching!!
ReplyDelete@Bluecat: The rain makes for lots of green stuff, and having spent five years in the prairies, I really enjoy the lush vegetation.
ReplyDelete@Richard: Almost a full tank of gas indeed.
@Pam: Thanks for visiting, I hope I can keep up with your expectations ;-)
SonjaM:
ReplyDeleteYou're going so many places, soon I will have nothing left to show you. Glad you managed to get out and enjoy the day

@Bob, don't worry there is so much I haven't seen yet, also we have different seasons, weather and always new food places to go ;-)
