Lol.. That just rolls off the shoulders of the guy who still uses straight razors (yes, plural, I got a whole bunch) for shaving

Don't worry, this ride will be slow enough even for that lumbering monstrosity of yours

Well, I needed something that can get traction over all those parts falling off of your bike. Found the chain lubricant and the gas station, saw the usual police car boogying on highway 27 this morning, and gravel at the Burnhamthorpe east exit light from southbound 427, mostly in the left lane.

I'm surprised you only saw 1 cruiser so far.. On May-24 long weekend, cruisers seem to outnumber all other vehicles put together

As for the parts, the Fizzer has to leave a trail of breadcrumbs for you to follow, once that 2-wheeled molasses you're riding falls behind too far to follow me visually

I will bring a GPS. I won't bring the 1000cc bike. The 650 might serve as enough of an anchor to spare you a couple of tickets, or I can meet you at the end and deliver any missing parts - bring tools to reinstall them.

Timing might be a little tight as I will be in the cage in Richmond Hill until 1:00 and I expect more people to be on the 401 today.

We can push it back another 30min.. I'm in no rush to leave.. The original plan was made due to a person who finished working at noon, but they're out due to other commitments (at least until the evening).. Gonna txt j12l when I take a break (working now).

Work? what is that?
