It took a few days but it came from Calgary so perhaps postal service (or even that company) is a little delayed due to the situation in Alberta. I did get an e-mail from the owner next day to confirm everything however.

If your friend can't find any insurance, he can contact the Insurance Bureau of Canada (416-362-9528 ) and they will force someone to provide him a quote. At what price is another story however.

Sent you a PM!

Re: A nice durham cop... and the story behind it Clearly not. I shouldn't have had.

I didn't even know there was such thing. I was looking at buying bicycle shorts for the padding because when I spend 5-6 hours on the bike, my a** hurts. My leather pants are padded but I don't always feel looking like a mutant but overall these could be a better option.

When I took mine in Brampton, the earpiece portion they give you was so big (it was the full around the ear thing). It took me a few minutes to manage to put my helmet on without pulling off my ear with it. It looked like this http://www.buytwowayradios.com/products/impact/eh1.aspx I have a...

Was also able to see it, I took your route for my first draft...

My goal is to try to make sense of all these little bits of roads to make it something that can flow (connecting the dots). Ike has provided a full loop so I've taken his road as a first example and created a first draft. This is work in progress, open to comments and suggestions. I've added...

First Jevco was acquired by Intact so the real question "was" should you try Intact. I always find it funny when someone asks this type of question in a thread. It takes what 5-10 minutes to call and get a quote? Worst that can happen is they'll you they won't cover you or quote you an enormous...

Fixed: http://shanekingsley.com/Two%20Wheeling/ontario_bikeroads.jpg That's a great head start. I personally just want to make planned rides from Toronto with a known distance but I'll get inspired by this.

Hi guys, I moved to Toronto last winter from Montréal and I'm still desperately looking for nice 1 day rides from Toronto. I used to ride on average 1000 km every week-end but I'm so far from that this year it's depresive. On the Montreal equivalent of GTAM (M4E), someone had built a nice PDF...

E-mail notifications are still coming late.... As I was parking at work, I got the notification from the post on May 30th from BubbaL00 asking "anyone wants to ride now?". I was tempted to turn around and call in sick to work... Good thing I didn't :)

For chain maintenance, I just carry my stuff in my backpack or top case and find an empty parking lot somewhere. And no I don't carry a full stand on my back, I use my http://www.packjack.ca/

Did the test this morning in Brampton, was the first one to go. It was super easy and the route was the same as posted earlier in this thread. 4 points off for: 2 x failing to left-right-left through an intersection, failing to shoulder check left while turning left and driving on uneven...

Finally got a chance to use my PackJack that I ordered earlier this season. We had such crappy weather that last Sunday was my first real long ride. Overall I was really pleased with this little gizmo. It turns out that it takes me about 5 seconds to lift the bike on this while it takes me...

This is the extent of my creativity before I got my top case... For some reason, people were looking at me funny (including cops I drove by).

Thanks KarGo, you just doubled my commute time in the morning but made it a lot more enjoyable :D It used to do 427, 401, 410 and now I do this: http://goo.gl/maps/sIh8R

Thanks, I'll see how what it looks on my way to work this morning.

Is it legal in Ontario to drive between an active lane and parked car (like on Queen West)? I've heard people getting tickets for that while I was in Montréal. I did a quick search in the Quebec Highway Safety Code to compare with Ontario HTA. Let's just say that the Quebec one is clear and...

Subscribing to this thread as I'm fairly new in Toronto (December 2012) and have no clue where to ride. I'm at Bloor and East Mall and normally available to ride pretty much any evening and week-ends. Only thing for me is that I tend to keep it within reasonable limits. Already have 2 tickets...
