    Airplane Watching

    The Canadian Warplane Heritage Museum is one of my favourite haunts. I'm there at least three or four times every flying season to watch the Lancaster and you are correct - the sound of four merlins roaring overhead is beyond description. I am also a member of the Canadian Air and Space Museum...

    Almost low sided tonight..........

    I remember reading an instructional piece regarding riding in the rain back in the late 70s when I was getting ready to go for my license. The author noted that riding in the rain was no big deal but it was one comment in particular he made that has stuck with me all these years. The article...

    For anyone looking for a contourHD...

    Over the weekend I had the chance to play with a friend’s GoPro to compare with my new Contour. At the 1080 setting and when working in the video editor on my MacBook, I see no difference in the vid quality between the two. While I did not get to record a new file with the GoPro to test for wind...

    For anyone looking for a contourHD...

    My Contour HD arrived Friday and I did a test run Sat afternoon. Mounted on the side of my helmet and at mid resolution. I reduced the mic sensitivity and added a music track using software that came with my MacBook. I want to get another helmet mount and may play around with some other...

    Rider dies in pickering tonight. RIP rider!

    So sorry to hear this. I was riding down Whites and turning east on Bayley and saw the cops and firetrucks. There was a Harley and a sport bike parked on the sidewalk and I could see the rescue workers further south but could not tell for sure what had happened. Was afraid it was an incident...

    fuel to$1.30 a litre in GTA

    Regular will easily be $1.50 by mid-summer - and that is assuming the middle-east doesn't implode. If things get worse in the oil producing regions, all bets are off and $2.00 a litre is not out of the question. And don't forget, as of last summer, Dalton is taking an additional 8 % in addition...
