Not sure if this has been posted Video shows the final moments of a nine-vehicle collision on Highway 401, near Townline Road in Cambridge, on July 11, 2026. I'd be interested in the logic of the semi that plowed through.

Hoping for a fast full recovery for the rider.

Not bad looking IMO but remember the Hyundai Pony of the mid 1980s. It looked like good deal at the time but it didn't take long before it became a cheaply built cheaply sold car for poor people. Status was negative. Poor R&D from Hyundai didn't help. Noted: Cloth seats but leather shift knob...

What gets me is the negligible price gap between a restorable bike with all or at least most of the OEM parts and a cafe racer wannabe. The pipes, panels and seat are missing so have a tall stack of 100s for those or pay a few grand more for an intact bike. How about Free to good home or case...

Would blipping a throttle at a Timmies do it? The $10K off MSRP pays for a lot of coffees.

In around 2008 there was the Honda profit game. I could buy a new GL1800 in the USA getting more model and colour choices and after paying taxes there and upon entry still be thousands of dollars cheaper than buying from the more limited Canadian market. However any US dealer that sold cross...

A bit like the used car market. New out the door is $60 K. You can save 20% by buying used but financing rate is higher. Time under warranty is shorter. Colour choice. Was it a daily rental? It doesn't smell new and of course, the "What if" factor. Why buy used or low end. It used to be that...

If the land owner can put a lien on the mill the buyer removes it. If it doesn’t sell the landowner buys some dynamite. Once on the ground salvage is cheaper. A stick of dynamite is cheaper than a crane.

At Princess Auto the other day another customer had a full sized kirpan hanging from his belt. Open carry kirpan?

Good video other than the dubbed narrative that can't tell a date from a number.

There are some fun cars out there that would be practical to own but what's the point if you can't use the performance in fear of HTA-172s and GPS reported speeding. I'm not suggesting hooligan driving but rather a little Adrenalin shot once in while.

Read up on old oil wells and mines. Different product same problem.

Wife doesn't like roses but the clematis on a trellis might work. The neighbour kindly paid for the fence and it's on his side of the line. Vines tend to grow through but a trellis makes the trimming one sided. :)

With the 50 feet of hedge gone it's time for something to hide the pressure treated Berlin Wall. My gut feeling is to wait until spring. Looking at some junipers and cedars for colour variation.

Just throwing out a wild card but what about timing. A lady I knew couldn't get her B&S mower running right and the repair shop gave up. I tweaked the timing and the surging stopped.

So an insurer is looking at a fraudulently registered vehicle made from a 60 year old car that had few safety features when it came out of the factory. Much of what used to be there (Steel body) has been removed and replaced with components with little or no independent documentation. The...

The first boat I made as a teenager was an eight foot punt made from one sheet of plywood and scavenged crate lumber. It was powered by a cast iron cement mixer motor driving paddle wheels, no fenders. The occupants got wetter than the bottom of the boat. I love those old farm hit and miss...

Did you run NDP gas in it?

Some cautions: Flooding with peaks expected later this week. Residual damage could mean patchy roads. Possible record heights. I rode across the US Midwest in 2008 and when I heard of cars coming through sections of highway patched with crushed stone damaging windshields, I swung further...

There's a YouTube video on Briggs and Stratton. B&S had a reputation of lasting decades even with abuse. The video says that manufacturing changes have cut life expediencies by up to 90%. There are lots of options, Honda, Chinese etc but our Ryobi's only problem is part scarcity due to age...
