The spring motorcycle show was today. It wasn’t as large as what I remember from the January show, but I did pick up some warmer gloves, and get to oogle some of the bikes at the Suzuki of Newmarket<\/a> booth:<\/p>\n

Since I wanted to try my new gloves, and since it was another great day for a ride: (well, +4 and no rain)… I threw another dart at Google Maps and decided to visit Belwood <\/a>and it’s nearby lake. <\/p>\n

Things went OK the first 99% of the way… but as I got closer to where I though I should be going the paved roads started to run out, and the dirt parts were potholed, muddy, and rutted (not the terrain for a road bike). I had to stop and eyeball the maps I had printed to find another way around…<\/p>\n
