    Noobie Explosion

    Oh forgot the biggest reason i would think for younger riders or anyone who doesn't posses a G license. If you don't have a G license, you are looking at 2 years to get one, with a minimum of 1 full year after passing the written test before you can even drive a car alone.. and that's with a lot...

    counter steering

    I'm in my second season as well and have done about 8,000kms so far, mostly highway, and to be honest i really don't notice when i'm doing counter steering, or at least don't find myself thinking about it. I ride a honda magna 750 which is about 520lbs wet and i'm 240ish. The first few times i...

    Bikes Being Stolen From Condo Undergrounds.... Stupid! The Solution Is Easy

    The real solution is far easier than anyone has mentioned. Just don't live in a condo! rent a house or buy one, it's probably cheaper anyway. And you get a backyard, and your own nice little garage to keep your toys in :) oh.. and i found a pic of the Xena protection system in action, take that...

    Streetcar Track Lowside

    Me too. I haven't had much problems on tracks up til now, then yesterday i read that guys very technical article on it, and right afterwards i went out for a ride and had to cross a couple tracks on corners and found myself feeling nervous and more conscious about it than before... damn...

    Bikes Being Stolen From Condo Undergrounds.... Stupid! The Solution Is Easy

    Xena lock??? a giant amazonian lesbian wearing kinky leathers who stands guard beside your bike, ready to take off the head of any potential thief with her chakram? I think she would cost more than a security guard..

    Streetcar Track Lowside

    When crossing tracks during a turn i put my legs together tight to the tank, then do a bunny hop over the tracks with the entire bike in the air.. bmx style.. :tongue10:

    Looking to get my first bike

    If you can't find anything near you i would just try to get a cheap motel room and book it in Toronto. It's only 2 nights since the courses run friday evening to sunday (the day you take the test). It's added money but it's still worth the experience. I recommened Centennial College's course...

    Boy, it sure is windy today

    Someone hit it i think. It's windy today but not super windy, weather channel shows average 30km, but i know that gusts around buildings often get much higher, but still.. to blow it over from leaning on it's left side on the stand all the way over to the other side? seems unlikely unless the...

    Concrete Falls Off Gardner Smashing Car Windshield

    wtf.. when you go to thestar.com website right now they have the giant head "falling concrete from Gardiner Expressway hits car", then directly below that is a photo with the caption "i'm giving up hope on whether they're going to find them alive".. but that pic is for the story about the mall...

    Anyone here ride in North Bay during Shad Fly season?

    I was just talking to my cousin who live in North Bay and he told me it's Shad Fly season again. If you've ever been there it's like a biblical plague like locusts, with literally thousands of them covering every inch of the roads, they are pretty big, kinda like grasshoppers. When you drive a...

    I need some help picking a bike for everyday use and touring..... 6'3, 225lbs

    Sport touring bikes like BMW's and Suzuki VStroms seem good for taller riders, but are both really expensive. What's your budget limit? I think most 750 class cruisers would seem too small at your height. I'm just shy of 6' and ride an '84 Magna which has a very similar sitting position and size...

    I Saw You: V.2.0

    Beautiful weather early this morning, sunny and nice and cool so i went for a short ride across Lakeshore from Park Lawn to the Port Credit area then home. Around 8:30am while passing the Timmies beside the big church near Lakeshore/26th street an older guy in squid mode on a big cruiser pulled...

    Do you chew gum while you ride?

    I have very short hair so luckily i won't have that problem lol. One time though i hit a hard bump and the gum i was chewing popped out of my mouth and was stuck on my chin at the bottom the helmet until i could pull over lol. And yeah that's another good point, i want one that stays juicy...
