    anyone else put on 100km today (wednesday)?

    has anyone made it out to the 2012 motorcycle show?

    I was a bit rushed to get through the show but saw most of it. All the big names are there. Most of the bikes you can sit on and there were a good amount of them. I stopped into Suzuki of Newmarket's area to buy a hat..walked out with a new exhaust. They had one Vance/Hines exhaust that...

    Downtown Toronto Riders

    You should volunteer to be the the Google Streetview Bike :) It's an experience riding/commuting downtown, but I think you get used to it. For the commute, you take basically the same route every day so are used to where the hazards are, physically, and somewhat mentally. Cabbies, crappy...

    Sunday Dec 4th - heat wave

    Starting to rain downtown. I purposely didn't fill up yesterday so I had to go out today one last time, rain or shine. Yesterday was great, other than my back tire slid out around the first corner I took, but I kept it up. I figured the tire was a bit wet from pushing it across the grass...

    Dec 1/2011 and still on 2 wheels

    Supposed to be sunny and 5degrees on Saturday. Since I didn't get out on Thursday, I might try for a quick tour on the weekend to say "Ya, I rode in December". Then that's definitely it.

    Motorcycle Parking Fees Recommended without Notice or Public Consultation

    Re: We might lose free parking in Toronto I'm all for some sort of a "plate fee", that's reasonable and optional. If you park on Toronto paid parking streets, when you renew your licence, you can pay some fee, say $50, for a years worth of parking in the same spots we park now. I really...

    Re: City council voting on getting rid of free parking for motorcycles today Wrote my councillor..who's a tree hugging hippy anyways so I think anything with a motor she's against. Took a lot of strength not to end the email with "if Rob Ford could fit on a bike this would be dead in the...

    Anyone riding?

    Yup, one of the nicer mornings in a few weeks to ride in. Saw 3 other bikes where I parked (2 cruisers and a nice duc). Almost bittersweet as unless it's as nice Monday, this is my last commute in for a few months :( Time to ride up to Wingham and get in on that group hug ;)

    What mods are you planning to do over the winter?

    Wasn't planning to do anything on my GS, but then I sold it and bought a 2008GSXR750, and it needs a few things. Looking to put a new exhaust on it as PO just had a lil pipe coming out of it, which sounds awesome, but it's a lil too loud for living next to people with young kids. Also need to...

    2011 Honda CBR250 for wife

    That's a slick looking 250. Not crazy about the yellow colour scheme but the pipe on it is nice.

    Commuting today? 11/17

    Can tell it's coming to an end as there were only 4 bikes parked on Albert Street this morning and one of them was a cruiser with these HUGE handwarmer things on.

    FREE TICKETS! GTAM at the Toronto Motorcycle Show - Dec 9-11 2011

    Re: GTAM at the Toronto Motorcycle Show - Dec 9-11 2011 Google does! Looks like $14. And it's not a night club so I doubt there's a different admission cost for the ladies. https://www.microspec.com/tix123/eTic.cfm?code=TMS2011
