    Alberta to allow turban-wearing Sikhs right to ride motorcycles without helmets

    I used to race at Mission with a friend who was Sikh. He wore a patka under his helmet which - no offence to any Sikhs on the board - was more like a do-rag. He claimed that covered all the tenets of his faith. He thought BC's exemption for Sikhs was pretty dumb as it leaves the rider very...

    Trudeau tour

    I don't think Cuba, certainly under the previous leadership, is a country that I would look up to. My wife is Canadian/Cuban. Her parents managed to escape during the revolution, fleeing for their lives in a small boat from Varadaro to the Bahamas. Her Uncle was not so lucky. His "crime" was...

    TD Increase...

    Just got my renewal from TD and it seems like its gone up around 30%. I though that was quite a large increase considering nothing has changed from last year, no accidents, no convictions, etc. Question for the matures riders, where is the best place to get a quote nowadays? TIA

    Beer Tax Increasing. Again.

    Also a home brewer. I'm also Diabetic so there are techniques to make low carb beers. Doing it your self means that not everything tastes like Michelob light... LOL. I can play around with the wort and the hops as I like hoppy IPA's but still low carb. I was at CES last week and saw this...

    Paging Delboy... Delboy to the white courtesy phone please

    Thanks. I think he read through this. It was more specific questions like the power differences between the Serval and Cub for street, who can make a custom set of pipes, etc.

    Paging Delboy... Delboy to the white courtesy phone please

    Ha Ha. I was thinking about that scene when I was posting... He was looking for some advice on Serval V's Cub, Cranks, Where to get pipes, etc. There are couple of good writeups on line, but they are very generic.

    RIP Malcolm Young

    RIP Malcolm. He never really got the spotlight the way Angus did, but I don't think there would have been an AC/DC without him. Saw them play a few times. Always an amazing performance and really loud AC/DC and Motörhead are probably the main cause of my tinnitus today :)
