    Hi all, posting here to try to drum up some local interest in Horizons Unlimited 2023. Last year's event was a great success, we had over 70 riders from all over North America and even a couple from across the pond. This year's event is taking place August 1-4, at Lion Max Simms camp just...

    Ferry from Bay L'Argent to Pool's Cove?

    Thanks for the info b'ys. I'm really looking forward to the trip, it's one of the few places on the island that I haven't ridden through yet. Looks really pretty according to Google Street View.

    Ferry from Bay L'Argent to Pool's Cove?

    Planning to do a bit of riding around the Harbour Breton area this summer, and hoping to be able to get the ferry from Bay L'Argent to Pool's Cove. I know that the ferry doesn't take cars, but I'm sure I've heard that they can "sling" motorcycles on and off. Not sure how anxiety-inducing that...

    Burgeo Highway

    We were in Burgeo in mid August. The road was brutal...lots of potholes patched up, but it sort of gave a false sense of security because right alongside the patches were more gaping holes waiting to swallow a tire. No trouble to avoid them on bike, but I would not want to drive a car (or RV!)...

    Several mornings this summer (most recently this past Friday) I've spotted a GS rider headed to Schlumberger on Southern Cross Road...a RTR-er???

    Wanted: Camping Gear

    Outfitters on Water Street hosts a "Gear Swap" event twice a year...usually June and November I think. It's a great opportunity to buy good used camping gear. I've scored some wicked deals there, including the tent that we've been using for the past two years. On that note, if you buy an older...

    Accident

    The guy riding the bike is the brother-in-law of a co-worker. A car pulled out in front of him. He has a concussion and a broken wrist I think. His GS was pretty much brand new, and he is ROTTED.

    Group Ride on Sunday, July 8, from St. John's area to ????

    Leaving after work tomorrow to head to St. Shott's for a family function, may see you on Sunday somewhere on the Loop on my way back to town. FYI...if you go around the Irish Loop it may be worth stopping at St. Vincent's beach and/or Cape Race, whales have been going mad lately! Also the road...

    Good to hear that Steve is doing ok, he's a lucky man for sure. Other than that, it was a great day. Looking forward to more group rides this summer.

    Skibum Soiree 2018 back to the beginning

    I'll probably be taking the Vstrom, she's better set up for lugging camping gear. Would love to get out that way on the TW though and explore some trails.
