This solo traveling is pretty awesome. I still prefer company but there
are moments when riding solo that are, for lack of a better word,
calming. Meandering down roads that you couldn't imagine doing without
your bike, singing in your helmet with the music in your headphones and
hoping nobody hears you over the engine..and sometimes not caring if
they do. Finding beautiful views and taking the time to take it all in.
Think up the most clever ideas and personal philosophies that you
promise yourself you'll never forget and are promptly out of your mind
for good as you lean the bike into the next turn.

Solo rider 'Outside' at Cap Breton |

Cap Breton and a Yamaha 225cc loaded with solo camping gear - perfect. |

After all the awesome scenery what's better than a roadside cafe meal. |
