Seems a bit left field, but, if you want to send a bike down, there are tons of trucks going down to Wellington, FL full of horses next month and into January. If you check with a few of the equine transport companies and ask them if (hey, just checking) they will take a bike down in an empty...

Love how people just know the answer to this.

Basic legal advice is: It is illegal in Canada to be anything other than a total pussy. Conduct yourself accordingly.

Camera locked to the instrument panel with a cheap display screen that shows them their faces being recorded, makes that little "click" picture taking noise, and transmits it wirelessly back to a central server. Facial recognition is such that you can track them down pretty quickly if it goes to...

Re: chicks on scooters, cool campaign. I'll buy a case of whatever Amazon is selling as well.

GTFOOTLL . Canadians are a nation of dog ****ers who sit in the left lane and tune out. If the police want traffic to move, forget busting speeders, they should turn up the cherries and blast through the left lane on a regular basis to clear it. Dog ****ing in the left lane is probably the...

Suppressed three survival reactions, shifted weight back for more even traction, got off my wrists and arms, pushed with core, and the effect was leaning in with more throttle.

The Twist of the Wrist book actually saved my life about an hour after it arrived. I took an unfamiliar off ramp at normal (for me) speeds that turned out to be slightly decreasing radius because of construction on it. Given the options of going wide and over the divider, risking high siding...

For real assurance? %5-%10 .

Came down from the cottage this morning, slipped a newspaper section under my jacket to cover my torso. Does the job, but switching to thermal layers next weekend.

I thought the purpose of an alarm was just to meet the theft insurance requirements. What, he thought it might actually deter thieves? Given the number of bikes stolen to the number of people caught for it, I'd guess it's about 1 thief per 500 stolen bikes is caught, or %0.2. If the bikes go...

- Drivers will do what you let them. Be courteous, not weak. - Be aware, but don't look at them, it's acknowledgement that you've seen them, some will take that as an opportunity to cut in. - Eyes forward, driving means making the decisions, not waiting to react. - Brakes correct your...

Is it also possible that after 6-8 months of riding that we are riding more aggressively and taking more chances? Cold tires may be half of it, but the kinds of risk I will take in Sept are different than what I would take after 3-4 months off in March. Leaves though, man, those are like...

I thought the cart came standard on the Goldwing and some of those HD Streamliners.

I was going to get a Sunday bag for this. Did I just hear GTAM bike -> golf tourney?

Anyway, I wave to any cager who sees me and moves, or that I merge in front of. Always reward submission. :)

Not sure if there is poll functions on this board, but it would be interesting to see which roads rank as being perceived to have the worst drivers on them. 401 eastbound is obvious, because it goes so far, but the idiots:distance factor is extremely high on the 410 north. Anecdotaly, I've...

Anyone here one of the hundred or so people who park their bikes on Temperance St. ? It was closed yesterday, and I'm wondering whether this is going to be closed for a while, or if it was a one-off.

For the record: watched 1st 10 mins, excellent video. Wanted to support their work, and just bought both books and dvd on amazon. ~$60 all in. If you can afford it, buy it. This is someone who has done a really great public service for riders. Many people who don't pay probably wouldn't have...

I preemptively invoke Godwin's Law on this thread.
