Loving your journey :) Don't worry about forgetting to turn off the signal switch, I do it lots too. Some days are better than others. I remember leaving home once and getting down the street when the bike died. Couldn't figure out why. Didn't take me long to think about my fuel switch. Sure...

I'll be riding mine to work soon too. I'll have a 30 minute drive along Lakeshore into Mississauga. I'm still waiting for the promise of better weather ;)

Mapleview Mall is great for practicing, as there's almost everything there you would need to practice on: A hill, for practicing starting from a stop, a road that runs along the back of the mall with lots of areas to practice turning, entering a roadway, and your lane position. I had a bit of...

I've had this same thing happen to me quite a bit. I've done as some others here posted. Once I was stuck waiting, and I motioned the car behind me to come forward a bit. She must have misunderstood, 'cause she came up my right side. Either way, it finally triggered the light, and we had a good...

Someone I was talking with recently said they fill their bike up and pay at the pump, all without getting off the bike, or putting it on the kickstand. Said they could get more gas in the tank that way. Got me wondering if anyone else does this?

Sweet Rebel! Love the colour. I'll have to watch for you around Burlington :)

Welcome from another Burlington rider. :)

Welcome from another new rider from Burlington. I got my m2 last year and my first bike last Spring.

Yikes! Up to now, I'd only heard of their extistance. :)

Thanks everyone, I really appreciate the feedback. Wormburner, if I could wrap my head in flashing Christmas lights, believe me, I would ;)

Hi, I just found out about the "Ladies of GTAM". Any chance I could get an invite to join? I live in Burlington and ride a 2004 Honda VLX 600. Thanks :)

The one I saw was Scorpion, but I'm not sure about the modular "transformer" idea. Just hard to believe that something that you can remove from the helmet wouldn't come off easily if hit. Charles, that is the colour for sure. The other one I have come across is this...

I'm shopping for a new helmet and am wondering if colour really does help with being seen in traffic. I've seen a neon green that I really liked, but if I can't find it in the correct helmet for me, does anyone think white is a good choice? Does helmet colour help at all? Thanks!

Yeah, I did that all last year, but thanks. This year, I was hoping to meet some ladies that would be interested in going out for some rides. Not really interested in bigger groups at this point.

I'm a new lady rider from Burlington. I'm also looking for other ladies to ride with. I've not gone too far from home yet, so not sure what kind of riding you are interested in. Not that I don't want to ride with guys, but I'm pretty sure my idea of going out for a ride is not quite what any...

Thanks for the replies and links!:cool:

Is it possible to have a center stand installed on a bike that does not have one? And if so, what's involved? I have a 2004 Honda VLX 600. Thanks!

Bikes congregate on a grassy area at the corner of Elizabeth Street and Lakeshore. Basically irectly across from the Charcoal Pit Burger joint. It's just where all the bikes seem to park and it's only a minute walk from the Ribfest.

Tango: I actually looked for those marks on the parking lot, but couldn't find them from my car. The lady inside told me they did the test behind the theatre (Burlington), so I drove around looking for the marks. I'll go back and have another look. Thanks :)

I took the course late in the season and failed the test once. For other reasons, I wasn't able to do the retake. The offer of a retake ended with that season, it doesn't carry over.
