Reviving this thread to see what did the OP decide and hopefully give us some pointers.

I agree. I like Chivas and have never understood why people not like it. As my friend once said, drink good stuff. You are gonna die one day. If you happen to die drinking, at least die drinking the good stuff. He went dark there but it stuck with me.

I personally like Macallan Gold, Chivas 12 and Glenfiddich (the older the better).

I have not gone through all the posts, so giving my 2 cents. I think October 15 is the last date for the M exam at the test centres per the following blurb on the Drive Test website. "Motorcycle road tests (classes M2 and M) are available from mid-May to mid-October each year, weather...

To be fair, the "No right on red" sign is usually done on intersections that have a lot of foot traffic crossing the intersections. I hope some kind soul comes along and presses the damn button for the crossing.

Ohh yeah, I totally agree with you. I was also looking to get my M and going to look for dates today to see what is available nearby/far when I came across it. To be honest, I am a little happy that MTO does not care about riding gear except helmet. One less technicality for me to worry about...

I know the proper protocol for using the riding gear but MTO says you only need a bike & helmet for the M exam. Is this true? I always thought that you needed the riding gear regardless but MTO site does not show anything otherwise.

Hi I am looking to buy a denim jacket for motorcycle riding in and around Toronto area. I working with a budget hence cannot afford leather right now but that's the next one once I get some money. I am on the heavy side body wise (6ft - 270 lbs) so minimum I believe would be 2XL which is why I...
