Hey guys, kind of a weird post, but I normally leave my spare helmet for my girlfriend attached to my saddlebag or inside it, and on my lunch break today I went to go check up on my bike like I normally do and my helmet was gone. I understand this is super lame, but if anyone reading this is...

He didn't mean it as they were being ***** for giving me a ticket. I mentioned earlier that the disposition/attitude they had was horrible/they were just the rudest people I had ever dealt with compared to every cop I had encountered prior. I don't have a problem with what they gave me, I just...

Hey, thanks for the feedback again. So interestingly enough, I ended up speaking to a cop last night (had to report plates stolen, had them on my bike when I went into my friend's work, came out 30 min later and they were gone...talk about bad luck with this endeavour into bikes). While I was...

All I am saying is that I wasn't senselessly riding at night because I enjoy violating laws. I got stuck out in a situation I wasn't sure what to do in. I had a reason for my actions...

Yeah man...just don't drive through Rexdale haha. These guys were just looking for a reason to pull people over, given their extremely belligerent attitude. But I guess now I can say it isn't worth risking it.

Thanks for the support everyone, I really hope this doesn't end up in a suspension/insurance rates going up. Being 20 years old and paying for my own policy, its already bad enough haha. It's funny because, the initial reason I wasn't on the road at the time I was going to ride back at was...

No, at 1am Sunday morning, when I was pulled over, I was still on my M1. This morning, being Monday, I took my envelope from the Humber Gearing Up program to the DriveTest center and had my licence upgraded to a G2M2

Hey Major, thanks for the info. I am going to request a meeting with the Prosecutor and if that fails, then I'll proceed with a court trial (I believe that if you cannot settle a resolution in a meeting, you still are entitled to take it to court). I was looking at the demerit system, although i...

Sorry, I am slightly confused. They wrote on the ticket that the reason was "Unlawful hour w/ regards to M1 restrictions" and fined me $110 as max payable. Are you saying that if I were to follow through with any of the options, that my licence would be potentially suspended? The cops never made...

Suspension? The cop made me leave my bike in the nearest parking lot, and told me to get it in the morning and ride home. Did I get charged less than what I even should have then?

Hey guys, sort of in a situation right now and was wondering if you guys would be able to help me out. On Sunday morning at around 1am, I was coming back from a friend's place, wasn't violating any traffic laws, and two cops pulled me over for having an M1 (they said they had pulled up behind...

Yeah pretty much. There are usually about like 20-30 bikes parked on Toronto St, I think the riders claimed it hahaha. It's really cool cause its right across from my work; I was worried about where I was going to park it, but parking with a bunch of other bikes is some good comfort knowing...

Was on my way downtown today from Dixie and Rathburn, two close calls on my third day of riding haha. First was on Dundas around Jane St, Traffic in my lane is fine, lots of room ahead and behind me, lane to the left is totally locked up. With no signal or anything, this car pulls out into my...

Called Parker Bros just now, they said they have bags but will have to order in a shield. Rider's Choice is actually really close to my house, they were the first ones I called and when I asked about bags the guy just said "we don't carry that kind of ****" and got off the phone. Not too great...

Heya, Super quick question: where in Toronto/Mississauga can I purchase a windshield and saddlebags for my bike? I searched around for stores in Toronto, searched the forum, called around, and can't seem to find anyone for this. Thanks :]
