You wouldn't. Not only would you not "pee" anyone off, you wouldn't be going slow, either. By now you certainly know the in's and out's of your bike and I am certain you could throw it around on that road no problem. That's what the CB360 was for back in the day, and it's no different now. Just keep your body low and your RPM's high, and smile for the camera!

Any pics of that park? I wouldn't mind a trip to Canada one day.

A map can be found here:

I live near the bottom right of the map off of chemin pink (or pink road, take your pick).

PS I would avoid trips between November and May

Hmm, may have to take a trip en sud when I get a bit better with the bike. My brother and sister inlaws both live in ottawa.

Some photos "Print-Screened" from Killboy.com. The high-res versions are on order, with up to a three week wait time.





No sparks flyin' like I had hoped for, but I'm not sure the material they used on my pegs will do that or not. Most of the bikes you see throwin' sparks are the big dressers draggin' their chrome floorboards through the turns.

Wow - those are great pics. I'd love to have some like that. How much do they charge?

Awsome pics, thats really cool. Pics 2 & 3 clearly show the counter steering so you must have been more than 25mph. The road condition looks good too. Why do you look so serious, no smile?

wow, only just found time to watch the vid.... where can you buy goldwing luggage sliders from?

They're $5.00 per picture on CD, which is what I ordered. They have other options, but the CD is the cheapest and you can take it to Wal-Mart or wherever and have it made into prints from there.

Well, I'll answer both questions. I had a serious look on my face because I was in 2nd gear running about 4000rpm when that shot was taken, hence the counter-steering. I may not have been smiling on the outside, but I was on the inside! That's just the look of "in the zone".

OK I understand, thanks to your help I have posted pics, you can see me smile.

How do you know whenn they're at the gap? I'd like to get my pic aken next year.
