    Roll Call, Calabogie 15th & 16th September with Pro 6.

    The pics are FREE! :) I asked the man who was doing the photo shootout of the CBR1000RRs for Inside Motorcycles, and he gave me his card. That's how I found them. Really nice man, Richard Coburn.

    Are you crash superstitous?

    I don't even remember the dates of my crashes. One happened in June (I think?) and one happened in September. I guess I'm not superstitious then.

    Grand Bend next Thursday through Sunday

    Who will be there? I'll be riding on the Thursday, weather permitting. Would appreciate being towed around and shown the lines by a solid rider. Please and thanks. Marshalling on the Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Best to all the racers coming out to compete! Have my fingers crossed for good...

    Dropped my bike again, slow speed

    Everyone drops a bike. Don't worry about it. I dropped mine trying to do a 180° turn when I first started riding. I've never attempted it again. Now I just slip the clutch and slowly make 180° turns with my feet off the pegs. Live and learn. If the clutch lever is working fine, just leave it as is.

    Hip dysplasia in dogs..options?

    My male Lab has hip dysplasia. I got his weight down and it's helped immensely. You can also exercise your dog by swimming. It's much easier on his joints, while still burning off calories. Sorry to hear he's on Metacam already at such a young age. My Lab has been on it too. So again, the best...

    What's with mutts costing big bucks?

    In my experience with the Lab rescue, the adoption fee went to vetting. My Stella came to me spayed and her shots were up to date. The rescue org also took her to the vet the day I adopted her where it was found she required meds for a persistent ear infection. The adoption fee paid for the...

    invictus, they don't charge women less. Women pay the same amount as men.

    Why Android is better than iPhone.

    None of them. LOL! I bought a new 4s for $99 and switched to Telus for $50/month. I couldn't resist the better deal, so I switched. Nothing else to it.

    I've seen commercials for http://www.bio-oil.com/en-us/ It's supposed to be pretty good with reducing scars.

    Male vs. Female Insurance Premiums

    It has been against the law for years in Canada for vehicle insurers to differentiate coverage and costs based on sex/gender. This also finally changed in Europe in 2011. This actually sucks for women since statistically, we get into far fewer collisions and have far fewer claims. So instead of...

    What's with mutts costing big bucks?

    I don't believe that certain breeds carry certain temperaments. I have two chocolate Labs. They could not be any less similar. The only similarity between the two is that they're both brown, and that's where it ends. In terms of personalities, they're on complete opposite ends of the spectrum...

    Roll Call, Calabogie 15th & 16th September with Pro 6.

    Any word on how the yellow group rider that was airlifted out yesterday is doing? Lots and lots of prayers and good wishes to him.

    I just converted from the Android side to the dark side of Apple. :confused2:

    Over 25 & Own A Car... What Do You Pay?

    Hmmm... I was told by several insurers that if I lived in Etobicoke instead of Brampton my premiums would be cut in half. I've thought about listing my vehicles to my parent's place in Etobicoke just for the insurance deduction.

    Motorcycle Mishap Training

    Interesting article on cbc: http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/newfoundland-labrador/story/2012/08/31/nl-motorcycle-accident-training-901.html I chuckled at: "If you're going around a corner and you run over a pop can and you've got the front brake on, you're going to go down pretty quick."
