long cold ride
I finally got to ride my new 2013 Vaquero, great bike, lots of low end torque and comfortable compared to my 2008 Suzuki B King. 850 kilometers from Winnipeg to Saskatoon, wind gusts at 68 kilometers per hour, started the ride at 13 degrees Celsius, finished at 2 degrees celcius. Glad its over, bike will be washed this weekend, fuel stabilizer and placed on the battery tender. Until next riding season

Sorry to hear that your ride was short. Congrats on the bike, but it sucks to have to wait for next spring to really enjoy it. Oh well, you can dream about it all winter.

528 miles is a good last ride for the season.

Not many riding days left here in Southern Ontario by the looks of the long range weather forecast.
