    cabot trail nova scotia

    The Cabot Trail is one of the best rides anywhere. *Great* scenery, in a great area with many nice roads close by. A trick to riding the Trail is to ride with the ocean side on your right. It's better for avoiding cagers crossing the line as they tighten up their left turns and for avoiding...

    Parker brothers close shop

    Re: Parker Bros. - done Yes, I agree, but if fewer people are spending less money, then something has to give. Adopting corporate business models and adding a personal touch does not increase the size of the pie. I personally detest "big box" type bike "shops" that are all clean and organised...

    Parker brothers close shop

    Re: Parker Bros. - done Good/bad, right/wrong, poor service/good service etc are all red herrings. It's the economy, pure and simple. Less people spending less money and always looking for the lowest prices. Something has to give, and PB's was the latest victim of a flagging economy. Look at...

    remember your first ride?

    What I rember most about my first ride at about age 14 on a proper bike, which was a yellow Yamaha dirt bike, a 500 CC thumper when monoshock was fairly new approx 43 years ago, was how easily I took to it.

    Increase Ontario 400-series Highway Speed Limit

    The issue is one of lack of highways as much as it is about unrealistic speed limits. There are far too many idiots who can't drive at 100 km/h let alone 120, and then it would bump the "real" limit to 140km/h and that would cause havoc on the congested roads with so many morons being given...

    We laugh at them, but...

    The only "hard core" thing about so many of these electric scooter riders is that they are hard core lazy. These new electric scooters are the "next gen" of "loser crusiers" like 10 speed bikes with the handle bars turned over, so one doesn't have to stretch so far to the brake while balancing a...

    Best Burger Joint?

    As far as fast food joints go, or just burgers made by restaurants in general, the best burger I've had is a Hardy's Thick Burger, Jalapeno and Cheese version. Truly delicious and probably as good as most "gourment" burgers at fancier restaurants, in fact, it is a gourmet burger. Problem is...
