I was watching to see where the first rider to make it there stopped.
He was here:
Although it looks the Meat Cove Fish and Chips is closed. And the new food truck is the Lawless Lobster:
Anyone know where the discussion on the IBR has gone to?
Number of replies to the tracking threads have gone down every year.
There's barely any replies to the one thread on ADVRider.
And no one really posts to the LDRider list anymore.
Are people losing interest in the IBR or has the...

Often times the reason why you see riders on twisty windy roads is because that's where the...
Correct, the Silverwing is being ridden by Dylan Spink from NH, who rode the 1977 GL1000 Goldwing as a rookie in 2017. He is a fabricator as a part time side job, and a damn good one. I'd hardly call any of his older bikes hopeless as his bikes are usually the best prepped ones at the start of...
