    Can you ask an officer to charge an individual if they admit to breaking a law?

    My thoughts exactly. An officer with a radar gun sitting next to a tree at the point where the speed limit drops from 50 to 40, nailing people who don't drop from 55km/h fast enough isn't saving any lives, but lining lots of pockets. Whereas, put these people to work enforcing some of the crap...

    I Saw You: V.2.0

    Today around 4pm heading southbound on Bay St. Me: Orange/Black Gixxer You: Female in denim on a cruiser. You're an idiot. Words can't describe how ****** off I was. First, you completely cut me off and stole my lane turning from Albert St to Bay St. Then you passed me not once, but twice on...

    Horrific accident 401W @ Dixon

    I was riding out to a mothers day thing in Guelph and when I came off Eglinton onto the 401, there wasn't a car in sight going Westbound, kind of spooky.

    Town Moto – New gear and accessory shop in downtown Toronto.

    Yup, the Liberty Village Scooter gangs will be all over that place, like an e-bike store that sells alcohol.

    wet streetcar tracks

    York Street just north of Front has a whole slew of them up to Queen that cross in multiple ways. I ride through them every mornin on the way to the office and there's no avoiding going over them at very little angle, but you get used to them and how your bike will react. That being said, it's...

    Best place for M2 test

    Can't agree with this. I did my M1exit in Brampton and the guy was a real d!ck and failed everyone except a rider on a 125. Yes, 2 of the group should have failed but 3 others were fine other than a couple foot touches on the slalom (all of us had large bikes). It was also crazy windy that...

    Most dangerous vehicle to bikers?

    My list.. 1. Distracted drivers of any vehicle. The ones you can tell are on a cellphone/doing makeup/trimming beard while driving. 2. Taxi's. My worst run in with one was when he left-turned in front of me, thinking that by just flashing his high-beams I would slow down and let him go...

    Just had my motorcycle stolen from my driveway. Everyone watch your bikes

    Yup, I often park my bike on the road outside my gym and I can keep an eye on it while I'm on the treadmill. Saturday morning some guy in a minivan pulled up in front of it, got out and started taking pictures. I ran out, all covered in sweat and said "whats up". Turned out he was just a fan...

    I Saw You: V.2.0

    Ya, was a bit tricky to get a good view on the gardiner this morning. Though I was coming east from the Kingsway and it seemed as soon as I passed dufferin it cleared right up. I need a set of the gloves with the shield squeegy on them.

    earphones while riding?

    Same..got pulled over on Sunday by an unmarked SUV (due to a bit of a stupid move on my part). I had my headphones in and the cop told me it wasn't the smartest thing to do, but wasn't illegal. He told me to make sure I could hear sirens etc, which I obviously could as I heard his. Didn't...

    who here wear's a suit rising their bike to commute to work?

    I do it all the time, did it today! I just wear my textile jacket over top and never had a problem. I should probably NOT wear my dress shoes but have been as I don't feel like lugging a backpack every day. I personally think it's a cool look!
