    Riding Advice

    Got my earplugs at Listen Up ( don't know if they are still around), they poured some foamy stuff in my ears and then pulled it out after it hardened, custom earplugs back in about a week. Really quite cool actually. Not cheap but they work quite well. Not sure if you need them for tooling...

    Hip dysplasia in dogs..options?

    I went through this with my first border collie and had the surgery done. It was only money, but it was a rather large hit ($3,600 in '91). With the benefit of hind sight, I would do it again - in my opinion she was worth every penny and then some. My circumstances then are not yours now and I...

    Hwy 400 wheelies 3 riders arrested

    My turn to vent a bit. I have been reading this thread for a couple of days now and if I have missed a post or two my apologies. I have absolutely no problem with anyone doing whatever they want on a motorcycle up to and including killing themselves horribly. The only caveat is they do it in a...

    Is GTAM the new "kijiji"?

    I have not sold anything on line yet either here or elsewhere. I would try to be a bit more selective and only accept offers from Nigerian princesses. They are all apparently very weathy as a close male relative has passed on leaving them just scads of money. GDM

    Where and what was the closes call you've had that scared the crap out of you

    Forgot about the Taste of the Danforth several years ago and took a side street to get around it. Bumper to bumper traffic on a side street, cars parked on both sides, typical Toronto. Guy in front stops, car full of screaming kids, and another car comes up from the back and snuggles right up...

    Cigar shops in toronto/mississauga

    Don't know the name, but there is a shop on Yonge St. just north of King on the west side. It's beside Starbucks. Seem to have a nice selection but not sure - rather large walk in humidor that is impressive.

    Should I be crying or laughing?

    Rashidme, Laugh bud, just laugh. Been there and there is not a lot else to do. Start cranking the resumes out, if your soon to be former employer offers out placement, take it. The councillors have some great ideas, tips, and can hook you up with some pretty impressive web sites and support. I...

    Why you shouldn't cheap out on riding pants ***GRAPHIC***

    Venom, I have the Bohn under armour. Sort of long johns with padding at thighs, hips and base of the spine that fit under regular pants. The intention is ATGATT without looking like it. They fit quite tight so movement in a crash might not be a problem, cannot be sure of this as I have not road...

    Nominate Future Collectible Motorcycles

    Always liked the Honda CBX 550 with the enclosed disc brakes. From the magazines at the time, I seem to remember that dealers would take 2 - 3 hours to change the rubber. Might have been a bit fiddley. Think it's early 80's. Then of course there is my own bike - destined for greatness by...

    Toronto, to Ottawa and back

    Glad this was a "happy" story although it did cost you a couple of bucks Couple of questions for you on the Ottawa trip: Did you take the 401 or backroads? How long did it actually take? Asking because I am thinking of making the trip down in a couple of weeks. When I do the trip in the...

    What's your biggest fear?

    Cut out the middleman, just buy her a house. A friend of mine, who has been married for better that 35 years, said that if he had to do it all over again he would prefer a series of meaningful eight hour relationhips.

    Beware of Endras BMW

    +1 Wadadli I bought my BMW from another dealership and was less than satisfied them. I dropped into Endras and left my baby in Owen's care. He checked out the things I had concerns about, reset the suspension to factory specs and then showed me how to adjust it when I got to the point were I...
