    Bike-Friendly Bed and Breakfast – Village of Tyrone

    For $160 per night + breakfast in the summer, it better be one helluva breakfast! Thanks for the info, but I am not going to use it.

    Lane changes approaching/in an intersection

    I found the specific law in British Columbia: Driving on laned roadway 151 A driver who is driving a vehicle on a laned roadway (a) ... (b) must not drive it from one lane to another if that action necessitates crossing a solid line, (c) ... So the single solid lines we see...

    Trailer import

    Thank you for the support. Another poster misunderstood most of what I said, and then saw lots of troubles in his misconceptions. Well, no wonder. Sigh.

    Trailer import

    OK, basically, I mean EXACTLY what I said, but there is some noisy static from somebody who thinks he knows better. Well, this is the voice of experience, so pay attention. I am NOT suggesting anything illegal, nor am I advising you to lie to Canada Customs. When you bring the UNASSEMBLED...

    Trailer import

    Your kit probably comes with some papers that describe the resulting trailer as a vehicle, suitable for licensing. Hide those papers. When you enter Canada, those papers do not exist! You bought some girders, wheels, chains, lights, and an axle (or two). You did not buy a trailer; for example...

    70 Centre court disclosure?

    What the heck. Be a sport, spend the extra dime, and fax it to BOTH places. You can send it to 941-792-4411 as well, if you like. That is a company of telemarketers, and I am sure they LOVE getting unexpected telephone calls, even from fax machines.

    Lane changes approaching/in an intersection

    Absolutely RIGHT ON. When you contemplate a right turn on a red light, then look left and see an oncoming vehicle that is NOT in the curb lane, the driver of that vehicle has the right to change into the curb lane, and you must yield to it if it makes that change. It CAN make that change while...

    Lane changes approaching/in an intersection

    Ontario has a method to prohibit changing lanes: A rectangular white sign with black letters saying "DO NOT CHANGE LANES" is that method. I have seen other wording, such as "STAY IN YOUR LANE", in Ontario and elsewhere. If you see such a sign, then you cannot change lanes. If you do not see...

    Getting Back On The Ride, After Injury

    Short version. I stopped behind a ten-wheel truck at a stop sign. I left about ten feet between the truck and the bike. The truck backed up about fifty feet, quite suddenly. I don't know how many wheels went over the bike, but four went over me. I needed help to squirm out from under the cab...

    Demo Rides?

    http://www.daytonabikeweekrally.com/daytona-bike-week.html March will be here before you know it ... Well, no it won't, but eventually it will arrive, and there's your chance for a demo ride. I have been to Daytona for demo rides twice. I enjoyed the experience and learned a lot...

    ROAD TRIP 2012 xD

    I enjoyed that ride in 2006, on a new V-Strom 650, so I have a few suggestions. Try to include flexibility in your trip. I planned to take eight days outward and eight more coming back. I needed six to get to Vancouver and five to get back, so you can tell that I was in fair condition and was...

    Another hit and leave a note and number, need advice pleaseeee!!!!!

    I recommend you call your insurance agent immediately. I also suggest you call the police, unless your agent says that is a waste of time. Several reasons: You paid for insurance, so use it. Yes, I know it isn't your fault, and so does your insuror, so your rates will not increase. The point...

    Radar accuracy??

    I don't think it matters how the devices work, or whether a device identifies which of a bunch of vehicles is going fastest. If the case gets to court, the cop swears that whatever he wants to be true actually is true. Then the crown attorney paints the cop as a hero and saviour of everybody on...

    Bill C-60, the Citizen's Arrest and Self-Defence Act

    I do not see a specific answer to your query, but careful reading reveals clues: The zombies are thrice called "the Shambling Horde", a term in which I discern considerable slowness and clumsiness. Only once did I find any suggestion of quick action by zombies, and that referred to the ease with...

    Bill C-60, the Citizen's Arrest and Self-Defence Act

    Odd you should mention that threat, Viper. Near me is the city Okeechobee FL, which is taking serious steps to guard against a zombie apocalypse! The idea is that most of the folks here in Florida have been lulled into complacence by the paucity and feebleness of hurricanes for the past few...

    Bill C-60, the Citizen's Arrest and Self-Defence Act

    THAT is precisely the point. If, having been attacked, I am, through great luck, gazing down at some thug who says, "I give up. I GIVE UP!", I face two perils: the significant likelihood of immediate violent death if I quit beating, and some nebulous threat of prosecution if I kill the bastard...

    Bill C-60, the Citizen's Arrest and Self-Defence Act

    I strongly disagree. A person who initiates a violent attack on me remains a threat while he lives. Whatever motivated that criminal to attack me will be augmented by my having deflected one attack. If I assist in prosecuting him, my actions will again aggravate any evil intentions he had...

    wireless helmet headset/audio system?

    I see very little difference between bike-to-bike communication systems and cellular telephones. Furthermore, I am convinced that the distraction is NOT what you might be doing with your hands; it is instead the mental effort you divert from riding and use instead for concentrating on the...

    rome, a lot of Harley riders treat us riders of Japanese bikes as trash. In the first place, we buy and ride crappy rice-burners instead of heavy machines with plenty of power. In the second place, we sent our money abroad to Japan instead of abroad to the USA. In the third place, we are...
