Well, I was born in Halifax.... but that's probably not what your looking for!! :D

My husband and I rode rode from Calgary to the maritimes about 10 years ago, and spent a week riding around Nova Scotia and PEI. There's some very nice roads for riding around there!

I'm in Halifax... well, the Eastern Passage actually, but close enough. Where are you in Hali?

I think someone else with a superfast red FZ6 lives out in the Passage' as well. I fell in behind them on the 102 at Fall River late one night and we came into town (rather quickly). I peeled off at Portland and they kept heading out.

I had my bike out today since the weather was so nice. I picked up some parts from PRO. I have just about everything for some spring maintenance. I CAN NOT WAIT until winter is over.

I'm in Hammond Plains,
Bought my bike from a guy in Fall River this January (Red)

It was nice enough to ride today... should have taken advantage!

Local question......where do you guys buy your degreaser / chain lube?, what kind?

I know I can go to the Pro and get some but does CDN Tire sell same sort of thing?

I use JP1 Clear Wax which is sold at CDN Tire and WD40 to take it off. 21K on my chain and sprockets. So far I have only had to adjust my chain once. I used to use the Bel Ray Wax but I like the JP1 better.

I use the same combo for my bike. Works like a charm (the WD-40) and doesn't fling off (the PJ-1).
