    2015 Ontario GTA Photo Tag

    Not sure what TSquared and blessedlife are posting. Guys, the game follows a sequence - you dont just post random shots. There is an old tag, you find where it is, ride there, take the photo, post it and then you have 3 hours to post a new tag. People hunt for it, ride there, post it and the...

    Has the perfect city bike/commuter arrived??

    But when you're getting your upfront back and the monthly is covered by gas savings, who cares if you dont own it. I pay cash for my cars so Im onside with you, but if you get that upfront payment back from the gov't, and you have no monthly due to gas savings, you're not stuck in a lease...

    Has the perfect city bike/commuter arrived??

    You don't own the leaf under that program its a lease. $8500 down and $150 per month after that. I think that the subsidy is paid out over a few years, so it take awhile to get that upfront back, but they say they'll get it all back. And they're saving more than $150 per month in gas so they say...

    The Car Thread

    996TT, and it's been great. Its my daily for 12mos of the year unless I can take the bike, which I'll usually do instead. The last of the fully analog Porsches IMO which makes it more connected driving but also easier to modify. I've had it for many years and all that's gone wrong is its...

    The Car Thread

    I like that new Z06 but am now in the place where getting the fastest car is not that important. I have a 750hp 911 turbo that is tuned for various boost settings - I drive it on the lowest setting (~500hp) 100% of time the last 2 years. Its been dynod three times, 650, 675 and 709, AT THE WHEEL...

    Has the perfect city bike/commuter arrived??

    My neighbours went through this same math and ended up with a Nissan Leaf. There's an incentive program where its something like $8500 down and $150 a month. Theres also government subsidies of $8500 and theyll cover the cost of the fast charger in your garage. The subsidy covers the upfront...

    Motorcycle Parking Fee 2015 – Response Coordination Thread

    Who are the motorbike friendly Councillors? Reaching out to them as early as possible can only help. If we find someone who will use the issue as a soap box of how the City is making bad choices that increase congestion and pollution, for insignificant gain, it could help.

    Radar detectors

    I have had a beltronics detector for years and used to use it but don't anymore. It's undetectable by detector detectors. And I have a laser jammer, which works well as a laser detector as well (better than the beltronics), but really don't care about either anymore. I've been saved a few times...

    Damn you Jayell! I should have snuck out early yesterday for a breakfast burger. EDIT: Ah I thought that Nims was posting for Jayell. I now see that this is Jayell's tag from last year that no one grabbed. Its game on 2015! Good luck to all and ride safe!

    When are you taking your bikes out?

    I commuted to work on mine. Temp was fine for me with no heated gear but with a short commute (10-15min). Roads were damp'ish but fine. My biggest concern was riding in the darkness, with a darkish shield and not knowing where all the thousands of new potholes that winter has blessed us with...

    What bike do you want today?

    Yes, probably. Only room for one bike and I cant figure out what it is I want most! Flip between Rivale/Hyper and RC8, and sometimes the 675R. Lust is my sole requirement.

    Motorcycle Parking Fee 2015 – Response Coordination Thread

    I didnt mean to imply that I agree that we should pay, because I want free parking, but if we are to get anywhere with the City we need them to want more bikes commuting, not fewer. Free parking encourages motorbike commuting. Charging 1/4 of a car's parking fee encourages it less. Charging...
