    Ramps to watch out for - 400-series highways

    Not 400 series but Bayview / DVP north or south. However I also do not advocate playing on ramps, dangerous areas with few escape routes.

    Let the City know what you want to do about e-bikes - official survey

    IMO, I think skill level and lack of speed are the two main issues. Get them off sidewalks and park trails, set the limiter at 50km/h instead of 32km/h. and institute a system where you go online to answer a number of questions to get a e-bike license (similar to boats).

    Riding a bike for the first time this Saturday.. advice?

    Grats on passing the course! I had to LOL at how quickly you went form thanking one of the posters for making you realize how cocky and confident you quickly became to deciding most here are basement dwelling dweebs intent on keeping the noobs down.

    Smells like a scam selling my bike, thoughts.

    Fire Department bills me for nothing

    Yeah, I'm totally in favour of this practice, as long as every year that I don't use these services I get a rebate cheque, and while we're at it, why is everything that picks my pocket the new normal, and everything that can save me money I have no option to opt out of? Rationally I understand...

    Where did you ride today? - New rider version

    I did this route on my own today. For a 4 hr. or so ride we've used this route a few times with newish riders in tow, it's not absolutely "new rider" friendly but it mostly is. Where you choose to make the starting point is up to you... :) http://goo.gl/E72C4 From today's ride, Fenlon Falls:

    Should I fear the Tar Snakes?

    I found different tires can really make a difference in how tar snakes feel. I just ride over them and kinda enjoy the squirrely feeling, you won't go down, my suggestion for what it's worth is to stay relaxed, focused, and don't try to overcompensate because that's when your bike will end up...

    Getting M2 Before 60 Days - Is it possible?

    For the sake of clarity; It's 60 days from when you wrote and passsed the M1 test, NOT 60 days from when you took the course (and passed the M1 exit).

    The Sh*tbird challenge

    Yeah I know what you mean RetroGrounch, my bike does not conform to the rules, unless I started unbolting plastic.... but still it sounds like it could be fun, and really almost any bike could be made to qualify with a little stripping down.

    bike vs. big rig truck (accident on the 18th)

    Is it possible that the helmet in the duffle is what got run over and in the confusion and panic that ensued you believed it to be your own head? That is a pretty traumatic thing to go through, I'm impressed to see you handling it as well as you have. Count me in as another that thinks you...

    Just flunked my M1 Written Test

    Just do it again OP, I'm sure you'll pass next time. Some of you are not being very understanding... the equivalent would be for you to go to Quebec and take the test. Just saying...
