    St Pierre

    Was there last summer. I left my bike at a campground pretty close to the ferry terminal. 10 min walk. I learned that auto or bike insurance purchased here does not cover us in St. Pierre. I was told it was about $100-$150 to purchase insurance to drive our bike or car in St. Pierre. We...

    Camping Gear - What works, what don't?

    enjoyed reading about camping on this crappy day. I can't wait. Towing my Aspen camper opens up a ton of storage and very very comfy sleeping. I just bought a great folding table at Princess auto. I also purchased a small solar charger.

    Where are you planning to ride in 2024

    Appreciate your input. I have done all these roads myself several times on bike. Wife has never done a "longer" bike trip. She has only spent a week camping in a tent with me on bike around NL. I am hoping the "luxury" of towing the camper will help her enjoy it more!!

    Where are you planning to ride in 2024

    I plan WoodSToc again in Aug. Plan to take wife and tow my Aspen camper. I can't wait till I can get out again and use my camper and bike. So much better than a tent. I even plan to skip a few weekends at my cabin in favor of bike and camper.

    Went for a ride today...never ending hi-jack thread

    Am I getting old? I have not been riding in over a week either. I even put one of my bikes in storage for the winter. Just too friggin' cold in the mornings. Much easier to jump into my big warm truck and drive to work. I even have heated gear!

    First US Cross Border Trip Since Covid!!

    Zero issues gong back and forth a couple of times a couple weeks ago weeks ago from NB to Maine. The border officer coming back into Canada was more cooked than the one entering USA. I had nothing to declare so we just waved through. We are off to Vegas in a couple of weeks Let’s see...

    Meat Cove

    So apparently this place is an iconic campground for motorcycle camping. Crappy road to get here only to find out they are full. So I just set up on the road but the campground and the fine lady said she would not charge me the camp fee of $45!!! Ching Ching. Flies might carry me away though

    WoodSToc

    Pizzaman and Debbie were their usual hippy hosts. Fabulous people. I didn’t get to sleep in the hogan(. No idea how spell that). His bike days are probably over. Sold the bmw with sidecar. Buying a van to travel in.

    WoodSToc

    Crap. That would have been great. It was organized on the ST owners forum but other bikes rode with us. So many forums so little time to meet like minded folks

    Arsenic in NL Water...

    I bring samples to Miller Center. Free testing, but only for E coli and coliform. Where do I go for Arsnic testing and how much? And do I really want to know the results. Ignorance may be bliss????????

    What did you do to your bike today?

    Just finished my first week long shake down ride, 2 up towing trailer. Zero issues. MPG was only slightly worse than one up, loaded with camping gear. I also hit the 100,000 km mark, so I had to stop and take a pic. Visited St. Pierre for first time. One day was enough. Cost $220.00 for 2...

    Need a welder

    I am looking for someone to weld my trailer hitch on to my quad. I have tried twice with my small flux core welder but it will not hold. I have put a large bolt through it with thread locker, but that also comes loose quickly. I have the quad in back of my truck in CBS. Should be an easy job...

    First night in camper

    I thought the big scary crooked guy who woke me from my slumber might have been Murph! I'll pay to see you get in and out of a hammock tent!
