    FireMate's Guess the Location of the Photoshoot game!

    Depending on the photo, it was either shot with a Sony A330, A55, or a Pentax K7. There were others from the shoots that had film but that was for more of the horror shoot shot there and don't really fit in this post. The bags I've got are just Pentax branded bags, as they hold a laptop and an...

    Stuck on westbound 401 near Ajax, near exit 404

    Didn't have CAA, nor a credit card, just cash. Called a few of the tow truck places in the area and they weren't running flatbeds at that time of night or day of the week. Yes, this is really what I was told by some (and while I believe it, I know some here will doubt it). Ended up calling...

    No, there isn't an oil light, just a speedometer basically, as well as a neutral light and the turn signals, highbeam, and alternator/charge light. One thing I will say about the ruggedness of it, based on when I first thought I felt drops hitting my face from the car ahead (thought someone...

    Stuck on westbound 401 near Ajax, near exit 404

    It's a very simple motorcycle, so it doesn't need someone Ural specific. That said, I've taken the valve covers off, looked inside the sparkplug holes this morning. Not much to see, but nothing is moving. Definitely fused somewhere inside. Next step will be taking the jugs off (it's a...

    Home now after getting the flatbed to drop my bike off in my garage, helmet in my hand. Engine is quite seized. Sigh. RetroGrouch, it IS a hotel, I'm impressed! But not Gladstone. This is from the Oshawa area, and has a connection to James Bond... AngelEyez, thank you for the compliments...

    It's a ural but seems to take a standard car sized if really... Debating using my spare spark plug in a pinch. Oil is 20w50 but will take any oil type just to get off hwy

    FireMate's Guess the Location of the Photoshoot game!

    Aw thanks! I used to have a clothing company on the side from my main career, so I would do photoshoots for the catalogues, etc. After the divorce, I still had a number of friends in the industry that I know of, and I still do shoots for their clothing lines or fashion shows. My girlfriend is...
