    Internet Providers besides Bell and Rogers

    Yup, all the time. Kinder surprise, adult edition. Won't know till you cut the cable and look inside the sheathing. Guelph two weeks ago was that, along the CN rail corridor.

    Internet Providers besides Bell and Rogers

    Fibre cuts are what they are. Half the time it's from a contractor digging without a locate, a quarter of the time a vehicle accident knocking down a pole, a quarter of the time it's copper thieves. Last mile is expensive and fragile! Low ROI in low density too.

    What do you wear under your track suit?

    +1 under armour long sleeves and leggings. I'm doing racer5 again next weekend mainly to do it with family. I would also bring shorts, T-shirt and a heavy duty clothes hanger(a suit weighs 15lbs). It's nice to get out of the suit during lunch time and get a bit of air drying going. If you've...

    Husqvarna Svartpilen 801 thoughts

    I disagree with this a lot. As a 790 Duke owner, the number of times I hear about the styling being the deal breaker is just ad nauseam. KTM styling is styling only an owner can love. Meanwhile, any of the city huskys are something I turn my nose up to as hipster wannabes. The brand...

    Quick Shifter

    Quick Shifter? Not worth it. Clutchless upshift is just as fast and more or less the same movements. On a ride by wire bike, it's a crime for it to not come included. Factory Auto-Blipper? Worth it's weight in gold for any spirited riding. Useless if you have time to count to 3.

    Recommendations for welding/fabrication shop

    There are business models like sendcutsend.com but I'm not familiar with any Canadian alternatives. Of course, you'd still need to weld what can't be bent, but I'm sure a crappy weld job is much cheaper than a cheap fabricator. They are great as long as you can do CAD/get someone to convert...

    A frugal comms set up...

    I don't think the current version of GTAM would be talking about motorcycles at all.

    A frugal comms set up...

    This solution wouldn't work well in a motorcycle application. One of the biggest use cases for comms in a ride is immediacy of urgent communication. (ex: gravel in the corner, pothole/roadkill in left track, ******* is tailgating us, cop, etc...). Can't do that fast and safe enough with PTT...

    Motorcycle mistakes you only make once... and ones you make all the time...

    This happens most when I get distracted by others. Whether it be keys, ear plugs, helmet strap, etc etc. To fix it, I had to turn it into a routine, almost like a sacred ritual.
