    Beginner routes?

    +1 I've ridden this route a couple of times. And hardly any traffic when I've been there, i.e. sometimes not a soul in sight. Great for a beginner.

    I Saw You: V.2.0

    Two riders on sport bikes westbound on Sheppard about 3 pm, just west of Neilson I think, one girl, one guy. I waved when we got to the next stop light. We rode together until you both turned north on Brimley. Sorry for being such a slowpoke guys, I'm still a bit shaky on two wheels and trying...

    Where did you ride today? - New rider version

    Nice! I should try and do that if there's another nice day this season. Was the weather any different closer to the lake?

    Where did you ride today? - New rider version

    Managed to ride for about 2 hours today after getting some yard work done. Rode to Stouffville and back to Scarborough for the heck of it. Great day to be out! Possibly the last nice day of the season though.

    who's still riding? (in toronto)

    Thanks for the info elton_t and daught. Looks like the voltmeter would still be a good idea.

    who's still riding? (in toronto)

    Thanks for the tip. I've yet to find any information on the 300's spare power capacity. I've actually been carrying a full sized voltmeter in my backpack!

    You managed to cram quite a bit there. Which phone mount is that?

    who's still riding? (in toronto)

    I've been giving the voltmeter idea some thought, especially as I'm on a smaller bike (Ninja 300), and I'm not sure what to expect in terms of battery drain from heated gear.

    Bluetooth Headset for Both On and Off Bike

    I tried using a Blueant Z9i that I had lying around, and it worked OK the first time. Set to answer automatically when calls came in. It's small and I managed to fit the helmet over after two tries. Call quality was muffled, but manageable. The second time out I couldn't quite get the fit right...

    Suzuki Turbo concept -return of the turbos?

    You're talking about a thermoelectric generator that would use the waste heat of the exhaust to generate electricity. According to the article there is a significant weight penalty tradeoff for efficiency.
