Cheryl & I want to thank all the supporters of this BLOG! We hit 50,000 views last night! Since we have been back from our summer trip on August 11th we have more hits to the BLOG then when we were on our trip. Thanks for getting word out, I am seeing more and more…
I was on the phone with Gerbing customer support this week and was informed that they are moving all productions from CHINA to NORTH CAROLINA, USA. I think this is great news for Gerbing! They are located in Tumwater, Washington and to have their own production site on the same continent is awesome. Plus, will…
Just have to post this link because this is a BLOG about everything and wildlife is my passion. Check out the HD Polar Bear cam broadcasting from Churchill, Manitoba. It only lasts a few weeks before the Hudson Bay freezes over and the bears will be gone! Check it out. LIVE HD Polar Bear Cam…
Would you buy this bike instead of a BMW or Triumph or any other self proclaimed ADV DS bike? (pics can be clicked on for high resolution) Honda has confirmed that the Crosstourer, unveiled as a concept at the EICMA last year, will go into mass production in 2012 and will be showcased at the…
When I first saw this bike on the web I was like hmmmmmmmmmmm interesting. Riding a lighter less complicated single cylinder bike that might be able to handle ADV touring is really appealing in some regards. I mean how many of us have wished we had a lighter bike when we get ourselves into certain…
Maybe this bike the R1200GS rather the 1200GSA is a direct comparison to the new Triumph Tiger Explorer. Perhaps Triumph will release an Adventure package with their new 1200cc bike like BMW. In any case, here is the new 2012 BMW and it will be interesting to see what happens in the BIG ADV bike…
So, nothing too new here either for the BMW F800GS. That might not be such a bad thing for the F800GS die hard out there. No changes except colour choices and some options. Like I have said we will be in the market for new bikes next year. We were really hoping BMW would update…
Share our BLOG link and help spread the word. 😉 We have added some easy ways to navigate through all the months of posts. There is a pull down menu to the right or on the bottom of the page, depends on your browser, that shows Pictures, Videos & More. There is also a category…
What do you think? Comments? Let the competition continue. Triumph has indeed revealed their new Tiger 1200cc shaft driven bike. Sounds awesome and looks great too. Just like the 800 Tiger this new 1200 is aimed at the BMW 1200GS and Super Tenere. Competition is great and Cheryl and I are excited to see if…
Here are a few pictures of Cheryl installing our Jesse Safari panniers on Cheryl’s BMW when we first got her bike in December 2009. We are fans of the Jesse luggage system because of its lean profile and no drag effect on our bikes. We used Jesse Odyssey panniers on the Triumph Tiger 800 XC…
Riding bikes is not the only addiction I have….Leslie that is…there is my LOVE for wildlife! Each year up in Churchill, Manitoba beginning in October the Polar Bears come out waiting for the Hudson Bay to freeze over so they can go out and hunt. Polar Bears are very hungry after the summer and hang…
These are rough routes of some of our possible 2012 trips. Would be from middle of May to June. We would most likely go through Alberta more heading back from Flagstaff, Arizona. Please post any MUST ride DS roads anywhere along this route. We will maybe have 24 days. All depends as usual with work.…

Colin and Ryan completed…
