    FYI: the "BOYZ" were there this morning (i'm guessing they were meeting their monthly targets) when i passed through the bayview bloor ramps this morning. Choose your time wisely around there...

    The cruisers (2 of them) were hidden in the little Compound/Yard (whatever you like to call it) just before the Bayview North exit on the ramp. Some of them were writing preparing the "trophies" while one was making the selection with his radar from behind the bushes...

    They are a permanet fixture there. I exited the Danforth/Bloor ramp and immediately engine brake to around 60, coasted to their spot. The cop manning the gun did a double take on me. He was probably thinking what is wrong with this guy, he is actually going the speed limit. Damn, could have nailed him for 5 over.

    Just remember there are a TON of tar snakes on rosedale valley road so don't treat it like a track or you will end up in the bushes. Also watch out at night because there is a lot of wildlife. squished racoons do not help lean angles.

    Thats because of all the accidents that have taken place on that road over the last year or so.

    Re: today i discovered don valley in toronto...

    this is a nice little loop i like to do over and over...just watch the engine braking ('cause it pisses off the area residents) and your speed ('cause it's not a race track), and for the boyz in blue and you should be all good.
