Since July we have run up 38k on our PHEV and my wife is loving the EV side of things. No issues plugging in and she is watching the display to avoid having the petro engine from kicking in. She wants to take it as her primary vehicle now and see how much she can get out of EV side of things...

You can run a clockwise route starting anywhere along the canal. Say Locke 3 and head south towards Locke 7. Then carry on to Ormond St S that turns in Beaverdams Rd. Follow west and head over the 406. Take either right or left on merritville hwy. 1) right turn or 2) left turn 1) Right...

The band everyone loves to hate, Nickleback! Whatever the hate, Chad’s writing credits are more than you’d ever know.

Anne Murray and Celine Dion are up there too. Gord Downie may not be the greatest voice but, his lyrics are unique and his voice is distinctly his own.

Ride details may not be available yet. Niagara’s isn’t. You can register and change the city and then check and see if the ride details are available. You don’t have to donate to register.

Can only speak to the Niagara ride last year. It was pretty relaxed and more of a parade. Most riders from the CVMC and didn’t really lean into the dress apparel. Staggered formation and no one tried to show off or do anything stupid.

I know it’s a global event but, not sure if I can participate this year with it occurring on the long weekend. 🤷‍♂️

This winter has been dragging. The very few windows of opportunity have only resulted in quick romps. Hoping we get some warm and rain free days to get out and make a day of it soon.

I thought the Lada Niva 4x4 was the coolest car ever. Then again, I was a teenager and really didn’t understand what cool was at the time. Come to think of it, I still don’t. 😂

I thought the report would have a punchline about Chck beating death. Sadly not the case. Pure legend!

Not looking forward to the bill to have mine neutered. On a separate note, speaking to a vet regarding flea and tick, the stuff they recommend is actually a poison the animals consume and then it kills the flea and tick when they are on the animal. The affects of the stuff on animals...

Word of caution with PHEV. Very practical with short trips within the battery range rating. If you do long distance, it behaves just like a hybrid so, it’s fine. However, in my case of PHEV, the fuel tank is much smaller than the regular hybrid version of the same vehicle. Once battery...

Slap on stickers on it and it will pop as well as go faster!

Ural is looking so appealing right now. Or jump on the neighbor’s quad for a romp.

We got snow over night and it’s sticking around. Windchill keeping things artic fresh around the Niagara region.
