I've tallied over 3800 kms so far this year on my new scoot. Crappy May, however when it is nice, I'm pounding out the kms. Ride for Dads this Saturday and the 1000 mile CannonBall Ride 10/11th June. It's going to be gruelling but fun at the same time. Ride safe.

Only been able to clock about 1,100kms so far given the rain and cold here in Southern Ontario...hoping things turn around for the rest of the season 'specially since retirement arrives June 30th

Congrats and welcome to the world of retirement GT580!
You are going to love it. Just over one year retired here and loving every minute of it.
Cheers, Terry

We've only had a handfull of decent riding days here on the east coast, one day cool and sunny then 4 or 5 of cold and wet. Can't wait for July and some heat.

I'm on the other side of Lake Erie. I get a London radio station. I'm at 1900 miles since pulling it out of hibernation. Should be more but seems were a rain forest now. 5 of my last 6 rides I came home soaked.

Default My lawn looks great...lol.

The longer this cool & wet thing continues...the more I wonder if 2017 is going to be like that one summer...(*I think it was about 10 years back) where we had nothing but misery every single weekend...all.summer.long. Hoping things turn around in a hurry.

Just over 10,000km this year. I started May 1. Sorta of a slow start but work got in the way. I don't let the weather deter me. We only live once, we live in Canada. Make the most of it!

Anyone out there doing the CannonBall Rides this weekend? A few of us from my local HOG chapter are doing the 1000 mile CannonBall Ride this weekend.
