 |  Anyone from ontario.?.
How the hell do you ride there at all? I just did 500mi crossing the province twice and was less than impressed. The wind is what really got me, at times I really thought I could be taken down by mother nature herself. Then you have the cagers to deal with, I was doing 70MPH or about 12kph over the speed limit and was for all practical purposes standing still. People merge at the bitter end of any on ramp, construction zone, or wherever else. They are constantly cutting each other off, running up hard on slowed/stopped traffic and slamming on the brakes; I'm glad I had my luggage cause I needed new underwears after the first time.,. the second and third times well, lets just say you don't really get used to it. I have nothing against the province and the people I met were great (except for the tourists (I was on a business trip)) but my gawd, I think I may just cut under lake erie the next time I need to go to new york, fort erie, niagra falls, etc. End rant BTW, I'm sorry for multiple ride rants but doing 500mi any given week you just run into a lot of crap, or maybe I put myself in these sitiations, who knows. |
