    hope this ***** burns in hell.. Woman 22 kills cyclist in hit and run

    I'm pretty sure her driving instructor didn't pour the booze down her throat. She is fully responsible for her actions so don't try to deflect it off onto someone else.

    May 2015 trip to the Great Smokey Mountains.

    After being home a couple of weeks I finally had the time to throw together a quick video of our 10 day trip down the Appalachians. https://youtu.be/Y9Hv2IsUAy8

    No more eBay for me

    I recently purchased some valve stem caps and chose the particular seller because they were in Vancouver and I thought I'd get them quickly. It turned out that they were shipped from Taiwan and took nearly a month to arrive. I usually use the nearest first filter and was dissapointed that...

    anyone have any experience with Peninsula Imports Ducati?

    I would have to agree that the older sales guy, Tony, has never swung his leg over a bike. I was there a few weeks ago and he was trying to tell me that the bikes now go 24,000 KMs between oil changes. I also find it strange that I bought a $20,000 brand new motorcycle from him a few years ago...

    sc project

    I have an SC Project exhaust that I ordered directly from them in Italy. My understanding is that they do not have a Canadian distributor. They shipped it promptly via FedEx and I did have to pay tax and duty on it before they would release it to me. It's a top quality product and I'm quite...

    Post up PICS of members bikes?

    Every time I've been there the traffic is pretty heavy on that stretch between Franklin and Highlands. I prefer the bit north of Franklin. Go a little further south into Georgia and try 180 and 60 (that's where the Two Wheels of Suches is). It's not a great ride to get there but once you're on...

    Touring tips - the little things

    Subway is in every Podunk town in the U.S. They're much more prevelant than any other chains and they have some relatively healthy choices on the menu. I usually get a 6 inch for lunch but wouldn't want to eat the same thing for supper especially if I'm going to be having it for lunch again the...

    Tips for new riders to avoid a Crash or Death

    Look where you want to go. Don't bail on a turn and stand the bike up if you don't think you're going to make it.

    Where should I go?

    Makes sense. Be aware of deer riding down the 219 at dusk or at night as they're all over the place. Elk are spreading around PA as well and you REALLY don't want to mess with one of those guys.

    Where should I go?

    May I suggest that you stay in the same hotel for both nights. It's nice to get the luggage off the bike for a day. Williamsport is an easy ride and good base that you can be at in about 5 1/2 hours (from Oakville) taking the interstate. They have a small bike sport bike gathering at the...

    Is Klim gear worth the price?

    I left Williamsport PA yesterday at 7 AM and it was 5 degrees. About an hour later I was on Hwy 15 in PA and the temp was down to 1 degree in the mountains. A bit after noon I was on the QEW through Burlington and the thermometer was reading 29. Crazy.

    Is Klim gear worth the price?

    I just got back from a 10 day trip down to Georgia and I'm on the sport side of sport touring so I wear leather. I have a Powerlet jacket liner that I plug in for heat if needed and it works well under the leather but the rain is another issue. I use waterproof rain gear to keep the leather dry...

    Protect Paint from Saddle Bags

    I think this stuff is easier to apply than the film. It just sprays on and can be peeled off any time. I've used it on my panniers where my boot hits when swinging my leg over tand it's holding up well. http://www.canadiantire.ca/en/pdp/3m-paint-defender-spray-film-0477929p.html#.VUzwNflViko

    Floyd mayweather vs. Manny pacquiao

    I hope Manny wins but I think it will be a long shot. Mayweather just isn't a likeble guy. My real hope is that the fight is not the snoozefest that the press conference was. There will never be another Muhammad Ali but all sports sure could use some characters that throw the media training out...

    Take some parenting lessons folks

    I've raised two children and never once have I ever used corporal punishment on either of them. Never. I remember once when my son was about 5 years old he was at a neighbors birthday party and some kid hit him with a stick. Immediately the kids father grabbed his son and shouted "don't hit...
