Nick, in 2020 the Scooter Cannonball will be starting in, I think, Nova Scotia and may well be passing by your area.

The top inch of gravel was loose over a firm bed. I kept my speed down and concentrated on letting the scooter slither around wherever it wanted to go, only giving it a little throttle when things really started to get interesting. When road conditions are like this, you just have to focus on staying relaxed and upright. As soon as you start to clench up, that’s when trouble arrives.

Most excellent advice, there, Nick..  :thumb: Super Hunky's old dirt bike maxim.."When in doubt, gas it."  :smiley:
