A Walk to the Lake through a British Columbia Rainforest Take a lovely walk through a rainforest in British Columbia, Canada to a calm lake to enjoy the view. The day is sunny with some clouds in the sky and a warmth in the breeze. The forest is lush and the path is easy to follow, allowing you to look around and enjoy being a part of the forest for a moment of your day.

The clouds came out today, which was really nice as it made for a cooler day. Went for a ride on the Honda to the beach, talked to some nice locals, took a few pics and then headed back home for some garden work. Have a nice weekend everyone!

....

I love the centre stand on my Himalayan, one of the things Royal Enfield got right! The other day in a parking lot I was putting it up on the stand, because the side stand works 10% of the time (bad lean, almost no lean), anyways this older guy comes over and was so happy to see someone using a centre stand that he had to mention it......lol

When I have a bike I ride all the time. . But wait, my Himalayan was down for that month, oh and then for those 2 weeks, also that time it was broken because..... I went for too many years in-between bikes, but now I have two and ride 4 to 5 times a week, some dirt and some tarmac. Can not go a week without riding a bike!

Greetings @zzzak from the Grasshopper!

I had this problem with sports cars. I had 5 at one time..... One new, one classic, one convertible, one rally car and one that didn't run. It was a hard habit to break for sure.....I can imagine the same with bikes.

After actually.... I have the 3rd gen. So first was in India and second in Australia, and then to North America. A lot of owners of this generation have had a lot of the same problems as I have. But Bagheera has been a bit more cursed with gremlins then any other Himi I know......

For the first time I own two bikes. Now that I have had them for awhile I can not imagine giving one up. Both bikes are so different and provide such a different experience that I would be sad without both. I love both dirt and tarmac!!! ......I guess really I could blame Bagheera, my Himalayan, if he didn't break down so often I might never have bought the Honda.....so it's all his fault I have two bikes.

"bitch" as in whining about an explainable loss, very true You'll get over it big guy!

At least I can push mine......

Go get her tiger!

Last pic of my as well @XTreme With the blue sky in the background. Thanks

The Peanut gallery has spoken and now I am rethinking my entry....this could be a winner..... What to do.....

But in the end I decided on this one, while I was waiting for my rescue. The thin trees on the blue sky backdrop just adds to the sadness......

Then I thought this photo of Bagheera, just before I knew he was dead. The natural light is so awesome. He looks so peaceful, not dead...lol

Well I don't have too many photos from this month. I ride Charlotte (my Honda CB500F) several times a week, but never stop to take photos. Bagheera (my Himalayan) was in need of repairs for a lot of the month. Which made me think to enter this photo, considering there was a bike in a van before...

I'll be right over, save me a slice!

Still appears to be that it was a bad battery that got cooked in a heatwave, as strange as that sounds. A nice new quality battery seems to have fixed it......."seems" being the key word....lol

Got the Himalayan out today and everything seems to be working again. Too hot and dusty for a long ride today, but it is always nice when you fix things and they stay fixed! I think the painting of the shifter looks good, well if you like orange.

I started today with a longer morning hike, as it wasn't too hot and the clouds were looking rather lovely. Bagheera's new battery has arrived and I have bent the shifter back into place, one more time....lol. I even painted it orange to match his bash plate. I figured I bend it one more time before replacing, but I do have a back up waiting. Then I hope to go for a ride tomorrow to see if there are any other gremlins in Bagheera. I also plan to start on my 4Runner, first off, taking the unused third row seats out. Then I get to build something cool for the back to carry camping stuff! Here is the view from my morning walk. Have a great weekend everyone!
