    Monday, June 18 -- Largest Motorcycle and Scooter Ride To Work Day Expected

    Everyday is ride to work day... except the Friday that Union flooded. That was just an aweful combo of weather and even I said no.

    Motorcycle Crash: Rider Snaps Leg In Low Speed Collision

    So obviously defensive driving/riding courses were not taken for either one of these individuals... She didn't look and he obviously was not paying enough attention to the parked cars. Also he's a little slow on the uptake if the car made it that far across the street before he reacted.

    Rebel 250 in Burlington

    You'll get the hang of the blinkers over time. I've doubled the mileage of my bike over the last month that I've owned it, the previous owner took 6 years to do the first 6000. The more you ride the easier it will get. Enjoy it. Forget 4 wheels. You only need two!

    R6 idiot

    I hope he gets caught. I'll be the first to report any I see that are doing this in traffic. The best part is you won't even see me doing it as hands aren't required thanks to modern technologies.

    Ontario GTA photo tag

    Looks like you met the rules to me... Not only is the handlebar and mirror blocking part of the shot but your bike is in the reflection of the door. Looks good to me. I like the washout from the sunlight. Looks kind of retro.

    Are Fashion & Function Mutually Exclusive in Motorcycling?

    I'd love to find a power-rangers outfit that actually looked proper... Just because it would make people do a double take when you're on the highway... Just picture the black ranger on a harley... or the pink ranger on a CBR. Or even the red ranger on Honda's big *** scooter.... Would people...

    I Saw You: V.2.0

    Me: Kawasaki Vulcan waiting for your light to change red so mine will go green and I can continue to work. You: Fighting your grey street bike around the right hand turn only to have the handle bars ripped out of your hands. DUDE!!! IF YOUR BIKE ISN"T WORKING LOOK IT OVER!!! Don't keep trying to...

    Center island - parking?

    Fine I'll give up my little secret parking spot... If you park on Freeland you have 2.5 blocks to walk to the docks. As long as you are out of the spot by 7pm PEOs won't touch you. I park my bike there every day so you can share my spot... Look for the Vulcan EN500 LTD. I'll leave you extra...

    Caution 15th Side Rd.

    Was through there on Sunday... WTF have they done? That road was never that bad. It's terrible now! We should all park outside the city hall and blockade it until they pick up each individual piece of crap asphalt that they laid down... There's no way they used proper equipment to do that...

    Back in the saddle again - who is going where today Sun Jun 10th ?

    Just got back from my first large group ride (about 60-75 bikes) in Waterloo. The ride for Veterans and Service Dogs. Ride was road captained by 1st C.A.V. Motorcycle Unit. Was a good time with an ecclectic bunch of riders, young and old.

    Bikes do get parking tickets in Toronto ...

    Effining PEOs don't even know the parking laws... I park in the same spot every day on Freeland (or at least on the same street). There was a PEO there the first day I parked. I asked him about parking where I was. He told me that thanks to the bylaws I was clear to park there as long as I...

    Bikes do get parking tickets in Toronto ...

    You really do have to hand it to the meter maid on this one... at least they thought ahead about what would happen to the ticket.

    Got caught speeding 33 km/h over in Caledon advice needed

    Having lived in the "Town of Caledon" for 12 years before moving to Guelph then Newmarket I can only say this... You're screwed. They will drop it down but you're still going to be paying for it. I think Caledon "seems" to target bikes because it sees so many. It's one of the more scenic areas...

    Trick to triggering red lights

    Coming into the city from Newmarket every day this happens to me a lot where I get stuck. It happened to me tonight with the GTA photo tag target too. The key to pressing the button legally is part c. (or was it b) where it states that it's okay to "park/stop" the vehicle if it is visible for...

    Ontario GTA photo tag

    Got it on the way to work this morning. Was half an hour late because I got caught in traffic but whatever... I'm always an hour early. That tag is only about 20 minutes from my place so I didn't think it would affect my commute that badly. Oh well. On to the next one!

    Ontario GTA photo tag

    Old: I'm not sure of the actual street address but it's on Lloydtown-Aurora Road in Lloydtown. I was trying yesterday but got caught in not 1... not 2... but THREE seperate storm cells on my way home. I'm a fairly new rider so it wasn't fun to begin with and by the time I got anywhere near it...

    Motorcycle Parking Fees Recommended without Notice or Public Consultation

    Re: City council voting on getting rid of free parking for motorcycles today I hope they do let it slip away but fear they wont. Look at what happened with getting rid of the 5c plastic bag charge. Instead of getting rid of the charge they got rid of the bags!
