I was there but did not see DKS

So I was in DKS See Profile city/town/village? last night after a motorcycle trip to Tobermory. I loved the roads leading into and past the place where DKS lives .. but after Wiarton, the roads get very straight (not good motorcycle roads)

On the way back south, we stopped at Kings Buffet but alas DKS See Profile was not there ... I think he was in hiding

On a side note, I was riding the 401 to meet with my friend in Elmira and got hit in the chest with a running shoe... it startled me to no end, but did not affect me other than that

I'm not in River City right now. I'm on vacation.

BTW, King's Buffet is not good food. Way too greasy. Chef Wok (takeout only -just down the street) is much better.

That's a head scratcher

I've been hit by rocks and some pretty big bugs but how does one come into contact with a running shoe while out riding?

That is an excellent question, I can say in all my rides past I've never been hit with an item of clothing.

However getting hit with Bugs, Smoke butts, Gravel, Glass (once) occurred all the time.

Re: I was there but did not see DKS

Going to be up on Oliphant next week, about 15 minutes from Wiarton and 30 minutes or so from Owen Sound. I'm sure I'll run into DKS See Profile when I am up there.

Not sure where it came from.. I think it must have been on top of a vehicle a couple in front of me and finally blew off, up and ove rthe vehicle I was following (I was about 15 feet behind it getting ready to change lanes)... I only noticed it coming in my perephrial vision because I was doing a shoulder check to change lanes, and it hit me in the middle of the chest

At least it wasn't a crow bar or hammer or something with a little less give! Now that I think about it I in my early riding days I ended up jumping a tumbling 2x4 while in the fast lane that had fallen off a trailer, luckily I had an enduro so it didn't upset the chassis too badly even at 125.

I do miss riding, just not those unforeseen dangers that comes with the territory.

I went to Tobermory and Stoke's Bay last summer. We drove by DKS's church on the way up. Alas, I didn't see any grumpy older-than-dirt men out front.

Try 507 north of Flynn's Corners for twists and turns. Bikers killed there ever year on the rock faces.

For all the fault we could find with the man himself, his reflexes are above reproach! I remember that going viral with flash based video games, pretty hilarious

Won't be where I am now, but may not be back in River City, either.

We just had all the mortar reprinted. No grumpy masons, either.

The building looked good, but I wondered where people would park as I didn't recall seeing a parking lot.

34 spots. All paved. And on street parking.

Good. There was a church in the central core that needed to relocate because they had no on-site parking. It's a beautiful building, and sadly it's been on the market for a while now.
