I was just tagging along and she was leading the way. I can't thank her enough for showing me the way and putting up with me. I was finally on my way home and we had one more free day to show me around. I had expressed interest to ride into Prince Edward County which I had seen on Motorcycle Experience.
We managed to ride to the end of Hwy 33 where we had to wait for the ferry to take us across
Did I mention that the ferry ride was FREE
On the ferry somehow we managed to get the best seats on board, right in front
There was even time to fill our stomachs at Lake on the Mountain
Notice that this is bike heaven. Lots of bikes, more bikes than cars on this day. Here is where we went
It was a hot day and we had to stop to get our bearings
When we got back to home base Vstar*Lady gave me a whirlwind tour of Kingston
Here is a short video, Part one
To My Riding Buddy, Vstar*Lady Thank you. I am forever in your gratitude and I can only hope that one day we can do this again . . .
Such a wonderful riding buddy. Good thing she is even still talking to you after her "Flatlandia" scare at the IMBC. I only wish we could have had more time to visit with her and Erik after they rode so far to get there. Time was limited though.
ReplyDeleteYou guys did have fun on your trip last summer. All those memories............

DeleteAfter being back East and riding their roads I can now understand what they must be feeling when then get to Oregon, or even Colorado, or even Montana. I don't like they way use use concrete slabs and much of the roads I traveled on were not well maintained with lots of broken and patched pavement and also lack of a wider shoulder to pull over for photos. Many roads only have a small patch and then you hit the grass.
I agree, the next iMBC whenever that may be, we should add another day or so "non-riding" days, or just days to explore locally and generally just enjoy where we are instead of putting on the miles. Flatlandia isn't so bad. I got a big taste of Flatlandia in Indiana . . .
Yes, lots of memories and my longest trip so far away from home. That's why it was nice to see some familiar faces
I second the comment about wishing that there was more time to visit. Nice video, part I of XII?

DeleteI wished I could have stayed another day or so. There is lots to see in the 1000 Islands region and Gananoque . . . They have lots of secondary roads in her area, not much here in BC due to the mountains
You two are in perfect sync. Its a good thing you were in line too... according to the sign in the thrid pic. Also, I like your Go Pro set up. Seems like you do too.
ReplyDeleteKathy:
DeleteI like my GoPro mount as I can rotate it 360° for those rear shots and I can turn if on and off easily, even though I have the remote control I don't use it because then you camera has to have it's WiFi on all the time which drains the battery. Too bad you couldn't use power from the bike.
After a few days riding together you get into a groove and can anticipate the coffee stops
Two of my good friends in one of my very favorite places.
ReplyDeleteThis one felt very good Bob.
OMG Bob ... bare roads, blue skies, sunshine, grass, open water, country roads and motorcycle riding ... I'd almost forgotten! Thanks for the memories.
ReplyDeleteSo where is the next IMBC? (PS - I love Montana, now there's some wide open flat roads ....)
