I reside near London, Ontario. I know that there are some from the Toronto area also on the forum. Welcome.

Checkin in from Toronto! lol signup for gtamotorcycle.com too... our local riders forum. Lots of group rides up in 'sauga and vaughan and even a 125/250 regular group ride.

Im representin the peace bridge straight outta Ruff Buff NY foos. Represent son.

kiddin

Buffalo NY here. I used to go to Canada often. I've been in mississauga many times. Toronto is great.

I've been over the border alot....its right here. It's getting really hard to go now with the new ID requirements!! Sucks actually cause I haven't been over in a while...I like to leave my Birth Cert at home in a safe place. Not take it around with me. If you need a birth cert for a NY ID I think its stupid to have to take one with you to cross the border. The new Licenses aren't cheap either and their going up soon! Though they do double as passports.

Anyway.. welcome to the forum.

ya most forums do... that's why it's great here. And from the looks of it, we have enough here in the GTA area to form up some group rides

paterick4o8 · March 25th, 2009, 12:46 PM

What's it like riding out in Canada? I know it's a big place, but in Toronto, it was blazin hot when I was there. But Vancouver, it was colder and cloudy. Any cool pics of some places to ride?

Generally, the weather in Vancouver is warmer but also more mild. In Toronto it seems to be really hot in the summer and really code in winter.

Toronto downtown is really bad for riding....even the highways in the GTA. Lots of construction, potholes, pedestrians, etc. but out in the burbs it's pretty good. Definitely no big twisties but good for night riding.

In Vancouver LOTS of hills (like San Francisco). Some BEAUTIFUL scenery. I find the drivers there crazier.

In Montreal, craziest! Lol, j/k. But generally, I find they can be pretty aggressive. Not sure about riding roads, though. Eastern Quebec (Gaspe bay area) has AMAZING roads to ride, though. Not so challenging as it is relaxing and beautiful, especially in summer....

Not sure about the rest of Canada....haven't travelled as much in other areas.

yup, forks and hockley are probably two of the closest to Toronto. I'm dying to do 507 though.

And to answer paterick - Toronto roads suck. If you somehow manage to avoid traffic, the roads are straight, the lights are plentiful, and as azia mentioned - potholes and grated roads galore. But that's all we have because of the freeze/thaw cycle and excessive salt dumping

If anyone form GTA wants to go on a proper set of roads for a good ride and doesn't mind driving up to Barrie to set off on a 3-4 hour loop.. Let me know. Forks of the Credit sucks compared to some of the roads through Muskoka. Southwood Rd, Coopers Falls Rd, Housey Rapid Rd, Whitefish Falls Rd, and Upper Big Chute Road makes for one hell of a days worth of Riding.

Nemy · March 26th, 2009, 11:32 PM

Sounds like a plan! Hell, it takes the same amount of time for me to get to Barrie than if I was going to Forks anyways. Set a date!

BC is great place to live. I'm on Vancouver Island and there is a lot of great places to ride.

Im always up to ride. so we should all set

I'll have to beg the fiance to use the Ninja 250 for a ride. Might get stuck with a CBR lol She is getting pretty defensive of it now.

You better buy asap to avoid them selling out unless you want to buy used. I was on a waiting since last April and only got it last month. The dealer also said that this was going to be a repeat of last year. We were sold out in the maritimes in April.
