    Why the wave?

    I'm hesitant to think of the reason someone would post such a negative comment about such a positive thing. The wave is a way of saying "hey, we have something in common, drive safe, brother" if you don't 'have time to wave' at very least give a nod of the head to acknowledge the rider. You...

    First time on main road

    Thank you for sharing your first experience. I, too, just had my first right ever on 'real' streets on Wednesday. I practised in an empty parking lot for about 20 minutes before hitting the streets. I drove a CBR125 in my course, but my bike is a Shadow 600 VLX, so i also had to learn the...

    Helmet shopping

    I went to royal distributing and got an HJC helmet on sale. It's light, fits perfect and i am not gonna upgrade my helmet for some time. I got it for about 140 bucks, and added a tinted visor for 26 bucks. Whatever you do, make sure the helmet fits you well, don't take style over comfort or...

    Any middle-age riders on this forum?

    Heya, I'm 28, and my hubby is 42. We are new to riding, but smart and safe riders, as we both would like to keep our licenses. We are in the scarborough area and like travelling to the pickering/ajax area. Hope you find what you're looking for!

    New Riders, Here Are Your Bikes

    Hey Ronnie, Just thought I'd let you know that I took her out for a 4 hour tour on Wednesday... and she is PERFECT for me. I was confident after learning the clutch friction zone as well as the heavier weight in a vacant parking lot. Thanks for the feedback. I'm really happy with the bike...

    New Riders, Here Are Your Bikes

    Ronnie (et al.) I hope a 600 can be a good starter bike! I got myself a '95 Shadow 600 VLX (yes, i know, cruiser style....). Although i'm fairly petite, it's the perfect height and i feel real comfortable on the forward controls. I just gotta let the bike train me for a little while, and i...

    Rookie Rider looking for a good starter, practise, short tour in Scarborough area

    Hey guys! Just wondering if anyone has any idea of where a new, rookie rider, in the scarborough area can get her bearings on her new bike. I'd prefer a shorter tour, just to get started, preferably on an easy riding, low traffic route. I'm not from the Scarborough area, thus, making this...

    cycle world Toronto

    Hey everyone. I go to CycleWorld all the time. My Hubby and I went in to check out what types/sizes of bikes would make the best 1st bike for me. I know that the people I've dealt with in the sales room have been very nice, but perhaps it wasn't this "Jim" guy. I was there on a Holiday once...
