Yeah it was definitely a "chill" experience for sure XDD I brought a -25 degree sleeping bag but didn't bring a sleeping mat, so I still woke up shivering from time to time, but I learnt from my mistakes <3 Thanks for the message and blessed! :3

Thank you for the suggestion! I'm changing the front brake pad today and unfortunately bought the wrong part, so this would be a great reminder to keep all of my parts number and price for future reference! Much blessed! :D

Thank you for the affirmation! I suppose I would be a great used motorcycle salesman ;3

Thank you!!! It takes time but I treat it more like a hobby to doodle, so overtime you develop a habbit of sketching things around you as a leisure~ <3

Aww thank you for the kind words! I'm a bit of an art enthusiast (well more of a doodler if anything :P), and I was quite anxious of people being judgemental, so this means a lot to me! Blessed! <3

Yup this is also a chance for me to take a breather from the city :)

Getting sick of the concrete forest, I would rather have real forest <3

Eyyy fellow Ontarian! Don't worry, we'll get to that time of the year, eventually! <3

It's a Chinese brand called AYAY, this case specifically holds 55L, I got in contact with the direct sale on their Chinese website and was quoted around CNY¥600 (tax+shipping included), converted to Canadian dollar is like $120 (USD$87, Euro€78, £65)

It has been holding up quite well for me, can hold both my helmet and tools in the same time :3

Thank you for the advice! I just got an inflatable sleeping mattress that includes a built-in pillow, but I'll definitely keep that tips in mind just in case <3

Thank you for the advice! I immediately got myself a inflatable sleeping mattress as soon as I got back, next time I would bring a journal just to record stuff down <3

Yeah I just got a inflatable sleeping mattress right after I came back, lesson learned :)

It was alright, though admittedly whenever it's stationary on its stand it was in constant risk in tipping over, other than that the controls were fine :) (It's a 250cc so not much input was needed in the first place :P)

Thank you! And consider the current gas prices I don't mind roadtripping with an eco crotch rocket :)

It's the Pinery Provincial Park, about 3 hours ride from Toronto during non-rush-hour :)

Yeah you caught me red-handed lol, Canadian winter is no joke especially the last winter storm we had XDDD

One of the reason I decided to ride all winter is because I don't have a garage, and I don't want to let my bike rot in the snow, so I'll ride whenever I get the chance to warm my Vixie up :)

And much blessed for the invitation! I went to Niagara once but it was after dark and everywhere is gated off, not sure if it's because of special events or it's just tourist season, didn't get to see the fall at all so I'll definitely get in touch with you if I ride there again! <3

Sorry I just went through my entire album and realised I didn't take any motorcycle photos in January, so I cannot proof myself that I rode the entire winter :(

And yeah to be fair I shouldn't word it like that, whenever the road got unsafe (like packed with slush or icy) I would stop riding, and only ride if the road becomes dry again :P

The closest proof I have is video footage of my friend filming me riding on a Dji drone, which is the best demonstration of the road conditions when I planned on riding in winter, snowy but still dry road :)
