    Got hit by a driver on thanks giving in Brampton while raining.

    ^^^This^^^ But I hope we're both wrong. OP, if something like this ever happens again, get the person's driver's license number, insurance, etc. Even if they swear up and down that they'll pay cash. At least as a safe guard against getting screwed for the repairs.

    anyone ever sold anything to a pawn shop?

    +1 to kijiji or eBay instead of a pawn shop. You'll make more selling privately.

    Shopping list for 2013 track season

    1. Probably convert the CBR to track only (bodywork, gearing and new rear suspension required) since it seems pointless to keep paying insurance on it when I think I only rode 400 street kms this year. 2. Put the $$$ I saved on insurance to track days. 3. Contemplate my SOAR license, but I...

    anyone ever sold anything to a pawn shop?

    It really depends on what you're selling and the market value. Of course they're going to give you the lowest price they can since they need to make money off what they're buying from you.

    Final Grand Bend Weekend — Roll Call

    It's the final riding weekend of the season at Grand Bend. TD on the Thursday, practice, racing and endurance on the Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Looks like it's the Long Track for this! Woot! SOAR is also putting on their (now annual) Thanksgiving Dinner. :) Who will be there?

    Goo Gone Alternative

    WD-40 works amazingly well at removing adhesive residues, burnt on rubber, etc., etc. And it won't scratch surfaces.

    ATTN: TD Rider with the Yamaha jacket at GB, Thursday Sept 27th

    I lack the confidence in T1-T2 on that track to move up to yellow. I'd be holding everyone back in those two corners. :( I'm having a hard time getting past some of these riders in that straight, no matter how much I rail through the gears to stay in the power band, or how closely I haunt them...

    ATTN: TD Rider with the Yamaha jacket at GB, Thursday Sept 27th

    It was NOT funny at the time, but since everything worked out ok, I've shrugged it off. From the speed the rider was going in the straight, it was easy to assume they would have taken the carousel at a good clip. I've never squeezed the brakes so hard to keep from rear-ending someone. He braked...

    Rider down - Hwy 10 just south of Caledon

    Sounds like you've been under the tutelage of Knightslugger/Rinzler/(Whatever he calls himself these days) for too long now. ;) Everyone makes mistakes. It makes us human. It's just a good thing the OP wasn't seriously hurt. He's on the mend, and that's all that matters.

    Is this an example of bullying?

    After reading the email she was sent, I have to say, that was not bullying! Seems like the author of the letter was simply a concerned citizen and has a valid point — she is a public figure, and as such, should think about promoting good health. Which involves maintaining a healthy weight. There...

    Grand Bend next Thursday through Sunday

    That was a fantastic weekend! Looking forward to the season finale in a week and a bit from now. Here are the pics I took, if anyone is interested. The album should be public: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10152146289920532.914763.805380531&type=1&l=da4a963d2a

    ATTN: TD Rider with the Yamaha jacket at GB, Thursday Sept 27th

    Wearing a blue Yamaha jacket, riding a yellow bike. Novice rider with the rear facing GoPro. The TD at Grand Bend on Thursday, September 27th. I am DYING to see your GoPro footage where I almost hit you at the end of the straight... TWICE! LOL!

    Anyone else fall for this scam ?

    I have an MA. But as I keep telling friends in university: You don't go to university in order to get a job. Want a job? Go to college and learn something practical and applicable. There are very few degrees that will get you employment at the end. The only one I can think of right now, is in...

    iOS 6 - 3G not working

    $50/month for unlimited texts across North America, free unlimited calls anytime of day to my top 10 numbers (local and long distance), free everyday from 6pm to 8am, 100 mgs data, call display, call answer and a slew of other stuff I'll never use and I'd say... what's your issue with Telus...

    iOS 6 - 3G not working

    I have a 4s as well. It's through Telus. Since the OS6 upgrade everything is way slower (email, FB, etc) and a couple of the games keep crashing the phone. I'm sure there will be some update shortly to fix certain bugs, only to screw up other things in the process.

    Grand Bend next Thursday through Sunday
