A beautiful early summer morning ride when I got this in my sights.....

Nice video! Thanks for sharing :)

I really need to do something about one one day... the dodgy cheapo one I got is just that... looks like I gotta send it back to get swapped over...

Would love to see more videos of Zuki riders.

Just paid $30 for the camcorder, which was on sale. It's the rigging that took time to construct. After getting some practice, will move up to a better camcorder.
 
Cool! Got photos of the rigging? Although personally I'd prefer it strapped to the bike rather than me...

Went away camping for the weekend and my wife and son went in the cage and I rode my bike. Crappy weather, got caught in the rain on the way up and my bike got crazy dirty. Don't like that!:mad: Got out for a ride on sunday when the rain stopped. Went onto the logging road to Port Renfrew. Great road!!!:D

That Sign!!

Narrow winding road, next 26kms.

I can only dream of such a thing.

And that road does not disappoint! That is what we call the "Port Renfrew loop". That logging road is about 40km long. They did a lot of work on it about 5 years ago and while it has some rough spots, for the most part it is great. Not a lot of traffic and I have never seen a cop! And there are some great open spots where you can open it up. A few weeks ago while riding with Rob (AZR) and Glenn (Eddie) I acheived a "personal best" for my 750. :D
 
I got out today in the same gear that I wear ALL YEAR LONG.
The only difference from Winter riding is the vents are zipped shut, the addition of a jacket liner, longer/thicker gloves and a sweatshirt.
If it drops below 40 degrees, I put on the winter pants that are not mesh.

I asked a nice :eek: used car salesmen to get a pic for all to see! ;)

I passed plenty of PUSSIES that were wearing tank tops, t-shirts, sneakers and shorts all day long!. :rolleyes:

The boots come up to just under the knees.


ATGATT!

Looks like you went touring on the logging roads in the Cow Lake area! I laugh when I see your bike that filthy in these photos, only because I know that the next time I see the bike... it'll be immaculate!:)

Glad you had a good weekend!

Haha Glenn, right you are! It's already been taken care of! Took 2 hours to get it back in shape. It killed me to look at my bike that way for 3 days while camping!:p Lunch or a ride this week?

Good for you Eric for being a smart man!! Better a little warm than a little dead!:p
 

Thanks mate, nice and simple! Still not sure about attaching one to me, but good to see how you did it as it certainly worked well for you!

Nooooo it can't happen Trevor! Your bike's far too pretty for that :p

I know the feeling though, I ride mine every day to work and it sucks when you get rainy weather... can't stand for it to stay dirty too long but it's usually a few weeks before I can get time to wash and polish it again.

Good for you Eric for being a smart man!! Better a little warm than a little dead!:p

+1, and I'm the same Eric, the only thing different now compared to summer is an Oxford neck sock thing to keep the wind off my neck and I have the quilted and rain liners in my jacket. Draggin' jeans/cargoes are the same and boots almost up to the knees as usual and helmet vents shut for winter. I still wear my summer gloves as so far the handguards seem to stop my hands getting too cold.

I guess you never heard the expression, "yeah it's a 100 degrees, but it's a dry heat."
He lives in dry heat. There is a big difference between 10% and 99% humidity. Didn't you look at those National Geographic magazines when you were a kid? The weren't naked because they couldn't make something to wear that didn't clash with the bone in their nose. Here you start sweating three feet out the front door. Until they invented air conditioning, the only place people lived, was along the coast. If I wanted to wear a cow, I'd buy a Harley, wear a vest and chaps and move out west somewhere like San Francisco or Northern Nevada, where men are men and the sheep are nervous.
