    Birth on British Base

    This is the part I like. In a 2002 German survey of Berlin obstetric hospitals, researchers found that 40 per cent of women who didn't realize they were pregnant had seen doctors who also failed to spot the signs.

    Cold tires, cold asphalt, SLOW DOWN

    I'm not saying that this is the cause of the most recent accidents but it is something to think about at this time of year.

    Online education

    Often the type of degree doesn't have anything to do with your work. Some employers prefer to indoctrinate (oops, I mean train) people in their way. Especially younger people. However they still want to see that degree. Even if it is in something that is not applicable (e.g. history or English)...

    Thruxton mileage issue revisited, resolved.

    Great to hear that your problem turned out to not exist at all. You must have had quite a laugh and gave a big sigh of relief. Now you can enjoy your bike without distraction. I test rode one a year ago and they're a nice bike. Have fun.

    Chopper girl in d'bridge

    Sat. Aug 25. Saw a girl on a chopper turning from Hwy 7 westbound to Islington northbound. I was in my cage and didn't get a very good look at the bike but I pulled up behind her at a red light. Its the first time in my life I ever saw a bike with a rear tire that was wider than the rider's azz.

    Any Thruxton Owners?

    Exactly. It took me 9 years to put 24,000 kms on an SV650S and most of those were in the last couple of years when my kids got old enough to be left alone.

    When money is a non-issue.....

    All the light weight, strong materials and fabrication will probably save XX kilos and these bikes will probably be bought by some rich guy who can stand to lose XXX kilos.

    Sometimes people use my driveway to access a field by my house....

    You should also put up a Private Property - No Trespassing sign. In some places, if people have a right-of-way for a given period of time (say a year) then it becomes a public right-of-way. Maybe some paralegals/lawyers can chime in on this if there are any in the crowd.

    Parking in Downtown Brampton?

    I think he explains it here. "at every intersection the lights are red. Have fun racing from red light to red light." And agrees with you here. "It was a nice place in the early 90's when I lived in the N section (and probably even nicer before then) but now its the pits."

    If you are saying that he was not getting video of your bike because it is readily available on the internet then you can use the same logic and say that he wasn't taking shots of you because porn is so easily available on the net.

    on road/off road

    if you want to buy a new bike then you may be able to get an enduro with street legal knobbies on it and have the dealer give you a blue plate. WR250 comes to mind. There's a CFR230 that is now street legal but not considered a serious dirt bike.

    kids dirt bike options?

    Don't forget you will need a good size trailer for the three bikes AND a place to keep the trailer as well as the bikes. Theoretically, you need insurance for the bikes. Check out SCORRA for tips on that. Ganaraska and if you join SCORRA you can do the Simcoe County forrests north of Barrie...

    What kind of bike do you ride? Is it possible that he is thinking of buying a bike like yours and wants to get some video of it.

    Wellnuts

    I had to go to Kitchener so I stopped into Spaenaur and they have a retail counter at the east side of the building. I needed a couple of wellnuts for ¼ bolts but the short ones I wanted were on back order. I settled for longer ones which will do the job. They don't have a minimum charge (like...
