How do you get to anywhere from our home town? Straight on the highway for 30-40 minutes. That's too long to get to twisties.

Ya but who wants to live there anyway? I live in the South East. Hills, Mountains, Turns etc. Stay out of the North/North East and the province is not THAT bad.

Ya, you pretty much gotta cross over to quebec, or get east of bathurst along the coast (which is awesome). Other than that, your SOL. Though they did pave around balmoral to c'ton. But still, its not like its a lot of nice road, lol.

Alone..... I like the time to think and enjoy. And not have to worry about my friends on their bikes.

Its kind of hard right now not having a bike, but if i'm stressed I just jump in my car and drive for hours. My favorite is at night. Wish I could do it on a bike though....

Bingo. I've dumped almost 2 grand into my business venture, and seeing as how I'm only getting 18 hours a week at work and being a full time student.... money is hard to come by. I'm looking at getting a new job soon, so by the start of summer I should have some form of bike.
