Central America sounds awesome! ..Tom

Better get riding! I'm over 93,500 miles on my 2020 DL1050. :) ..Tom

Thanks for the welcome! What are you riding these days? Are you going to Romney? ..Tom

Thanks fir the welcome! Secret was just to never waste time and effort "cleaning" the chain but lube with every tank of gas and after every ride in the rain. I had several chains last over 80,000 km. On my current Strom I use a Toturo automatic chain oiler and get similar life out of the...

Thanks! I was in Edmonton last July. My nephew lives on the southwest side of it and I was couch surfing on the way to Alaska and the way back. My daughter lives in Calgary and is getting married in September. If she starts making grand kids for me I might move out to Calgary. I love the...

Here are a few pictures of the S10 I rented in Phoenix in January of 2020 when I was visiting my daughter. I had it for a week and think I did around 1,000 miles, maybe a bit more. One of the things I like doing is searching for old steam engines. I had the bike for about a week and would ride...

I really enjoyed the Ohio Meets! I think Brian (Big B" on Stromtrooper) has a Yamaha now. Someone said he was here but I don't see that username. ..Tom

They haven't had Romney for a while and I had only been there once and very mujch enjoyed it. Great riding! Good times there! For some reason your username has always stuck in my mind! I started at Stromtrooper in July of 06. Did you come to the Barrie rides we used to do in Spring? ..Tom

Probably stood in line and got their plates one by one. License offices here have a stack of plates and they are in sequential order so next person gets the next number. ..Tom

Thanks for the welcome! Colorado is a wonderful place to ride! Love it there! Rode up Pikes peak a few years ago and beside riding have had training with work in Colorado several times. (I have been selling Porsche for the last 28+ years.) No I don't know that I know any of them. :( Pretty...

Hi All, I'm V-Tom from about a hour east of Toronto Ontario, Canada. I ride quite a bit, most of it basically touring and have ridden my bikes to all the lower 48 states, all Canadian provinces, Yukon and Alaska. So much to see on this continent! Stopped in here to pickup a route for riding...
