2023: What did you do to/with your NC700/NC750 today?

Rode it to work for the first time today. A bit frosty in the AM, so yay for heated grips. Still, riding at the end of December in Canada is always a win. Of course, I took the scenic route, to the tune of an hour long ride to cover the fifteen minutes to work. Also a first test for my Givi windshield. It passed.

It’s been very mild in BC this year. I only insure my bike from May to November. I’m missing some nice riding days.
Where do you live on the island?

After the last few winters, I caved and put my CBR300R on storage insurance at the end of October. Then I bought the NC a few weeks ago. Put it on storage insurance, but when the CBR sold, and there were sunny days coming, I changed my mind and plated the NC. Hopefully, this winter justifies that. I’m in Nanaimo.
 
Went out yesterday for a spin. Still windy. Today I need to go and buy wine and beer and stuff we still need. This evening is Kučios (Lithuanian thing) so special meal. Will be using the rhinowalk tail bag to bung it all in. Too much for the frunk.
Two BC folk, I see.
My daughter lives in Saanich at the moment but is moving to Langford in the New Year. My wife and I are flying to Victoria in April to visit.
 
So back from the shops.
Here is the booze bike laden with wine in the tailbag and frunk (plus some dog treats)

Not bad 20 stubbies and 60 bottles of wine. I then went back out for food. This time of year seems to bring out the worst in car drivers though Irish drivers aren't the best anyway.
Drizzle, gusty winds and it is a national slow down day though I didn't see any Gardai. Not that I break the speed limit of course...

Once the holidays (and the effects of your cargo) are past, you should review that Rhinowalk gear. I haven’t seen it before, but it looks like they have some tempting stuff.
 
Christmas eve Day 333... rained overnight but quit by 11:30 am. At 12:30 pm I was on the road and clocked 43 miles @ 55 degrees under partly cloudy skies.

It is basically a Kriega copy. I have two of the 20 litres, a 30 litre and a 10 litre. They all interconnect.
I can't really put hard luggage on as the tail tidy has put the indicators too near the seat. These fit well, are sturdy and waterproof.

6 bottles.
Not 60.
 
Day 335... Ugly day here. It's really wet outside from last night's rain with lots of fog/mist and conflicting weather reports of rain. One says it's going to start raining at 2 and continue through 3, 4 and 5 pm, the other says it's going to rain at 11, 12 and 2 pm and that's it. Since it wasn't physically raining that I could tell, I suited up and went at 11, but I got just as wet as if it had been raining lol...40 miles @ 54 in mist and fog

some pics from today

Ride height restored to normal, Givi windscreen in place of CalSci, rather nice Boxing Day weather, so time for a nice leisurely ride. Never buy a bike in December. Waiting for the chance to ride it properly is going to kill me.

Great view of Departure Bay. Nice looking bike. I lived up the street many years ago.
I bought my NC at the end of September and took it off the road Nov. 4th. This great weather is killing me!
Good to see you’re getting some rides in.
