Out of curiosity, removed by whom according to whose rules?

Rider is un-smart.

Mental Cases. Yes, many.

Speed traps or lower speed limits wouldn't have saved you. Since no man wants pity, I will still say that you probably don't bet your life on other people following traffic laws anymore either. Getting hit in an illegal lane change means either being in the drivers blind spot or going too fast...

Indirectly encourage? Like what, if we don't make a law we are responsible for what happens? I suppose the nanny state is fine if you get to be the nanny. I think we should let more accidents happen, and clear them quickly to get them out of the way of everyone else who was driving...

"Speeding" isn't a problem, it's a made-up offense to collect an indirect tax from drivers. Speed traps are what makes regular people not like cops and they discredit the authority of police. Even as a recovered cyclist and pedestrian, I think we need a few more serious injuries to put the...

A plausible explanation is that the cops are making their year end numbers. Drivers slow down when the snow hits and everyone forgets how to drive; hence fewer speeders. Speed traps and the quotas are disgusting, but apparently you people vote for it.

Really? Is that a thing?

Find out of the owner wants to sell it. You may be surprised how badly he wants out of it. I can think of at least a few custom rides that went for fire-sale prices because the odds of finding a buyer with similar taste was unlikely. If you reproduce it, your version will never give you...

It would be hard living in such a beautiful spot if there were bikes going by from sunrise to sunset. Throwing stuff is probably by people who are at their wits end. The solutions at both extremes aren't reasonable: crackdown on bikes vs. free for all. In terms of who has the power in the...

If you've got the data, it's not hard to create a site to rank it. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regularity_rally http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Road_rally Some rule about not doing 40 or 50 over in the city or something would be useful. There is the small matter of the data incriminating...

It crossed my mind that GPS might not be reliable for helping real racers, since it will take the time between two points and average the speed between them. When there is a "jitter" of 4-5 meters, it can cause a miscalculation of speed by a lot. The accelerometer and inclinometer data will be...

Makes me almost want to get a smartphone. From the story: "Designed with the help of the Moto2 racing brain-trust, the Race Sense app takes all the metrics an on-board smartphone can read, then delivers full data readouts for later evaluation. The software uses the phone’s accelerometers...

Just be a man about it. DNR, b1tchez.

Which organized crime group? Are all these thefts just happening in Toronto, or is it going on in Hamilton and up north as well?

What does a private investigation cost these days?

Wasn't there a car version of this at one point? It was like $10,000. Maybe it was during the Indy you could pay to use the track on the gardiner? I thought that Dragon's Den guy did it or something. There is the Bay Street Grand Prix, but that's kart racing. Even still, I wonder if they would...

It would be worth doing if we did it for like 5 hours on the day of one of those charity races, and opened it up before it for like $2500 a pop (or sponsors) to anyone with a car or bike to do the DVP TT to go as fast as they could handle. You get a slot and a start time. The trouble is, we...

This guy did it in a car, but right: http://www.wired.com/cars/coolwheels/magazine/15-11/ff_cannonballrun It's an older story, but really, if fleeing is what rocks your boat, this guy had the bare minimum to seriously consider it. If you aren't going this way, you're just pissing around. He...
