Plan B for the great car trip across Ontario

Dear travel diary;

Today I find myself implementing plan b. Due a motorcycle break down,  our great trip across Ontario, has changed to a great car trip.


No mechanical problem will stop us!

Ice cream in Kingston

Dear travel diary;

Today we find ourselves eating ice cream at centennial park in Kingston, Ontario.  And the best part is the local band "the greater unwashed" is playing down town. 

A wonderful day while we wait for the bike to be repaired.

A break down in Kingston

Dear travel diary;

Today a terrible thing happened during our ride to Kingston, Ontario.  We had a major break down on the motorcycle!  All the back spokes broke on the rear tire. Thankfully no one was hurt and the bike was able to pull safely to the side of the road.  A quick internet search provided a local repair shop.  The guys from Motor Sport Plus came, picked up the bike and rescued us from the side of the road.


Let's just hope the repairs are completed quickly so we can continue with our trip.

The great bike trip through Ontario

Dear travel diary;

Today we set off for our great motorcycle trip across Ontario, Canada.  Starting in Ottawa, our first rest stop and most importantly our first ice cream stop is in Smith Falls.

Time to hit the open road and put the travel into this traveling gnome!
