Started up the snowblower. It works.

More horsepower than the 900 I have, and has Michelin road 5 tires. Also, less expensive, as far as I can tell.

Above 20 degrees and I start thinking about a cooling vest. The humidity usually makes it very hot in the summer. My heated vest doesn’t get a lot of use, as below 4, I don’t ride, and above 10 I just wear longjohns and a wooly undershirt. Edit: I put some more stabil in the tank, put the...

Did our gas prices just jump because of the election, carbon pricing or something else? Normally, I see them drop about ten cents over the day, and jump around the same the next morning.

No, but you should better specify who’s mom.

Pretty sure it’s Harrington’s. At least it’s not Ticketmaster.

I think this one’s in Ottawa, but there must be others.

Where did you test the hit-air and what was the issue?

I just read an article that made it sound like more of a pita than the old system: “In one document published by Honda they state that the system could enter calibration on a new car when the pre-delivery service is performed, if the tires were not set to the correct pressure, then the vehicle...

Don’t think I want to worry about keeping tread depth the same on four tires myself.

Three sets of steelies in the garage right now. If I got aluminum rims, I’d feel pressure to get the tire pressure monitors, and then it would be difficult to have eight tires, in the same garage transmitting to a single car.

I tried All weather tires once, but they wore out way faster than the swap combo. They didn’t last a year. We cleaned the hazardous waste out of the garage on the weekend. I’m debating putting the snow tires on before having them replaced. I can’t remember if places charge you for swapping...

My Hit-Air is only mentioned in passing in the article.

Didn’t know if I should put this in day trips.

They move left to pass. Wind, time, up, out, the buck, in the night, sentence, it on, maybe even away; I'm not sure which, but not usually other traffic. I tend to pass quickly and get back over, especially if there's a portable radar detector/deflector (i.e. tailgater) right on my tail. As...

When I was in a hurry on the Gardiner during rush hour, I’d move towards the rightmost lane, almost whenever possible, and then move back left as that lane ended or exited. It was more stressful, but much faster. Passed many people who crossed the solid line to merge a km before the lane ended.

Was his name by any chance Time” or “Wind”? ;)

Ten year old Honda bolts still seem o.k., touch wood.

Good. Now do Tatlock, Ompah, Centennial Lake etc. I have to try this seven hour route next year: Kanata Town Centre to Kanata Town Centre

My kid was at the hospital with my car or I would have been doing the same; after I got back. :)
