    2026 Rides

    Anyone that wants to come East from the GTA, I'm happy to meet anywhere North and West of Bancroft etc. and run a little ride through some great roads more local to me (depending on how far North). Warning: I don't ride dead on the signed speed and I avoid long straight roads. Happy to run...

    Christmas Whatcha Get Thread

    My first day of college in Sept. '87, they played Sneaker's Pub at St. Lawrence College (Kingston campus). Most of the songs they played were covers of the Who, Pink Floyd etc. and they were flogging a few newly minted songs for their upcoming release (Up To Here, 1989). I can't for the life...

    Christmas Whatcha Get Thread

    That's awesome. I get to see a few of them out and about in Kingston, my ex's brother was friends with Rob and his family. We played four covers of theirs last night at the Tir Nan Og downtown; I think we did them justice. Seeing people hang this kind of thing on their wall makes me wonder...

    I do all my own work

    Actually true. I've used that, soaked in oil, to reseal the bottom end of a two-stroke motor before. Not only held, but held for years.

    How long do you keep your motorcycles?

    Nobody ever respects the little bikes until they FAFO. :)

    Honda bringing back the V-4 ?

    My RSV4 - the really good V4 - with stock gearing will do 144.5kph at 13,500 in first gear, and redline is 14,300. I say really good, because nothing sounds like them... roar, bark, gurgle, scream, they have a character all to themselves that the Ducati and Honda v4s just don't match. That...

    NASCAR star Greg Biffle....

    I agree with all of that. But I also know that if I lost a friend suddenly like that (sadly, I have), I might slip up. There's a few friends in recent years surrounding racing and motorsports that come to mind. Had a really hard time with them, mentally. RIP Tim, Jose, Grant, Ali. Ain't...

    They were friends. I imagine that he's in shock.

    Where to get a puppy?

    Siberian huskies. The litter went from my pure white dogs to the usual black and white mix, with a middle dog actually grey with two different colour eyes. My problem is at least partially that I had a wife and two stepdaughters that used to politely ask the dogs to do things and I had to...

    Dissertation Defence coming up shortly

    Just so you know, there may be help in healing those injuries quickly. I had a really bad tear that put me into agony for nearly 3 years with my left shoulder (done bench pressing) and injectible BPC-157 peptide fixed that shoulder up in 3 weeks. It's nearly perfect again now, I can do pushups...

    Caution! Don't Eat the Yellow Snow

    :ROFLMAO: It was a tense drive last night around 7 in the truck, visibility was poor and the drivers were horrible. At one point I passed three idiots doing 35kph. Yes, I was that @#$& in the big diesel truck bullying his way through and I have no regrets.
