I am trying to unlock threads to make edits, such as update URL links to pictures. I am still not able to do so unless there is a tool somewhere obscure I need to navigate to to toggle it? I feel like I'm not a moderator because I don't have a "moderator" banner under my avatar. :(

Uhmmm...., YES! :Flip: You're not living too far from the home of 45NRTH, makers of the Dillinger 5 studded tires and other winter apparel. No doubt you have some great trails. The Park is a good alternative, just be sweeter if you could just bike out your back door. You gotta try it...

Well, no surprise that it's winter here in Canada or at least where my igloo is located. The bikes have been parked since the end of October as snow seems to come a little earlier every year. Our winters seem to last 6 months, so what to do to kill the time away? Get a fat bike of course...

For what you need to do, I think you should be able to follow my thread on how to remove the stock exhaust for the most part. Obviously stop at where you are removing the stock fender. Once you get to that point, it should be straight forward what needs to come off for the swap...

We were out riding late in the afternoon and all of a sudden this tree just pops in front of us.

To address at least one of your issues, the bulbs burning out all the time, this can be the result of a few things: 1. Too much vibration. A bulb filament is suspended between two metal arms and is a tiny wound up wire which gets really hot when on. Any vibration that is constantly shaking...

If you are able get the starter to turn over the motor, this indicates that the ECU is giving the all clear to go. However, your fuel pump should be powered up. If you don’t hear it priming when first turning on the ignition, check that there is power present at the fuel pump, if not, check...

At a wind farm down in Halkirk, and Big Knife Provincial Park overlooking Battle River.

I thought I would chime in and talk a little bit about this Black Jack heated gear. In preparation for my trip this past summer, I decide to purchase a heated vest for those “just in case” moments. A friend recommended me to Black Jack because they are relatively cheap and effective. I...

:rockon: Thanks everyone one for voting and also to those who submitted this month. Guess I'm out again for a few months. Will be winter by the time I get to participate again. :( Meanwhile, hope to see some more entries in October and November. Cheers and safe riding! :cheer:

Some of the motorcyclist me had the opportunity to meet along the way were saying just that. One ride buddy of mine suggested that we should plan a tour that way across the border.

The stock seat only started to feel hard when we stayed on the bikes for >150km at a time which we only did twice. Otherwise, we were stopping frequently anywhere around 80km to 120km because we took on fuel whenever a gas station showed up.

Day 7, raining again leaving Tofino, but not as bad as yesterday, we made good timing to catch the ferry at Departure Bay to Horseshoe Bay. Today, our destination was Pemberton up the Sea to Sky Highway. Overcast and threating rain, but we managed the new...

Day 4, from Kelowna took us eastward away on 33 for a bit, then we landed on some more descent twisty roads heading south into Osoyoos, Princeton, Hope, Chilliwack, and finally North Vancouver for the night. Thai food anyone? We stopped in at the Benja Restaurant for...
