There is also a really neat lodge about 15 minutes from Algonquin - called "Cedar Grove Lodge" - its on Fairy Lake - really great accomodations - log cabins, fireplaces, central hall with home cooked meals. First couple of weeks in Oct are usually beautiful. If anyone is riding around the Georgian Bay/Lake Huron area (Southampton), give me a shout - I have room here to accomodate 2 people and there is some great riding around here as well. Cheers Eugene

If you want something really simple and inexpensive, the nuvi 250 is great - bought one as a gift for someone - played with it a bit - wow - super simple and easy to use. I've used the iway350c pretty decent unit with lots of options - as I get older, I prefer the simpler ones!!! Eugene

I think we got more problems than just high gas prices
Eugene replied to friesman's topic in Watering Hole
Yeah sure - the surprise will be if they do anything - they get their pound of flesh through taxes on the gas so no big hurry there. Cheers Eugene -
ps - further to my earlier post, my trailer is tall so I can stand inside and not hit my head!!

Hi there - I guess it would depend on what else you'd like to put in there. Mine is a 6 x 10 V-nose and my RSTD fits in very nicely with a bit of room at the back and some room ahead of the wheel chock. I hung a few hooks on the walls for my leathers and keep my cleaning supplies and a small air compressor in the V part ahead of the chock. The bike pretty much fills the trailer but I can still walk around it inside when all the doors are closed. If you have a trailer dealer close by, ask if you can ride the bike in and see what you think....that's what I did and was happy with the size and fit. I also had them install a couple of extra tie-down rings so now I can strap the bike in front, behind and beside if needed. Hope that helps Eugene

Hey Brian - mine has a ramp door. Depending on the distance your back end is off the ground (trailer, that is), a 4 foot ramp would probably do it - and yes, at least 3 feet wide. I know you will love having the bike inside - keeps the dew off, the dust down and keeps little hands from touching!! Eugene

I went with a v-nose so I could get a shorter trailer - the V gives you some extra space without increasing the length. I use mine as a "garage" for the bike both here in Ontario and down in Texas for the winter - it fits nicely in a parking spot.

Hi Eck - I know what you are saying - I mean to use them on all longer rides and I agree - there will be times when its nice to hear it all. Cheers Eugene

Change we can believe in.
Eugene replied to straight pipe's topic in Royal Star Venture Tech Talk ('99 - '13)
Well - maybe I'm too easy to please - just a couple of things.... 1) for sure - that infernal whine has to go 2) 8 track would be nicer than cassette - or maybe a cd player???? 3) a built-in GPS would be nice That's about it - I'm quite happy with everything else -
Hi Rosebud - I sent you a PM - I'm interested in the GPS.

Hey Don - I'm in for any costs - the chat room alone is worth it!!!!!!

Well - for those who responded to my first thread - many thanks. I bought some of those foamy ones and went for a long ride today. Wow - what a difference - blessed quiet and no feeling of being tired, wind blown or goofy (except the usual!!) after the ride. I'll be wearing them for every ride now!! Cheers Eugene
