    Garnish to Point Rosie (Sept 2014)

    Interesting Map For The Adventure Bike Riders

    While riding the Bonavista Peninsula woods road network, on Tuesday, I noticed another major resource road that intersected the route we were riding, and which was marked with a sign like the one which marks the Burgoynes Cove Resource Road. It was called the Lethbridge Resource Road. So, while...

    Trinity to Burgoynes Cove (Off Road)

    Barn Find!

    Picked up this '82 Seca 550 project bike over the winter. Got 'er for less than the price of a good meal at a fancy restaurant.
