    Provincial politics

    When I met Hudak a couple weeks ago he came across strongly as a true believer type. I personally find that scary as I do not think government should be governed by ideology.

    Altoids Tin...mini emergency pocket, Under seat

    Last time I had to use mine on my bike it was because a chipmunk had crewed some wires while at a cottage causing a ground fault. Little bit of electrical tape, new fuse and off I went.

    soooo... ever seen this before?

    Replace the swing arm. The metal is there for a reason, and yes for a lateral load it is now structural much weaker.
