I went to the Hamilton one. Good location, good event without being crazy.

Southbound East Mall near Dundas, pole for the speed camera is cut down and the camera is gone.

Yeah, the iX isn't to my liking, but ... it isn't my car.

People across the street have traded in their Ioniq 5 for a BMW iX.

I'm in.

The areas where the coating has worn or corroded off will never match the areas where it hasn't come off, unless you polish the whole lot of it off, and then it won't match what's on the adjacent parts that haven't been treated ... and polished aluminium doesn't stay looking nice without...

Design changes are a headache. In the perfect world, the concept drawings get fleshed out and design frozen before detail drawings are done, and those get done before anyone cuts metal. In the real world, people change their minds late in the game, errors and oversights are inevitable and...

In fairness, he's riding internationally (not in North America) which means regular plug-in AC power is 240 volts. The capacity of the standard european Schuko plug is 16 amps. UK wall sockets are rated at 13 amps. Even if you reduce that to (let's say) 12 amps that's 2.8 kW of charging power...

No break-in needed. Giv'er. I'm in.

I'm in, assuming it dries out - looks like there is one more line of showers. (I was supposed to be on the way to Calabogie today, but postponed until tomorrow, because the weather there tomorrow looks like a writeoff, so that might as well be the travel day)

I recall hearing about Verge, but forgot about them. Looks like they've pulled it off. I'd ride that!

That could be expensive. Older generations of Tesla systems have aimed for the clear space that they saw underneath the trailer of a semi which it thought was an overhead sign board.

I recall seeing a recommendation to be scanning ~ 12 seconds ahead whenever you can at highway speed - and I do that.

Apparently they don't "shift". That's a Hyundai Ioniq 5 N thing. I don't mind the way the new Charger looks; it's just far too big and heavy for what I want. I still think this was a botched launch. EV + muscle car + decades of "hemi all the things" advertising was never going to work...

I had a situation that was closer than I would like. Approaching a stop sign at a T junction, with a wooded area blocking view. Someone on a bicycle made a sweeping left turn (from my right, to oncoming me) cutting the corner of the junction by a lot. If I had been a second earlier, this could...

Out. Packing for a race weekend. Not enthusiastic about today's weather, either.

Someone mentioned this name above but typo'ed it. Here's a very useful source of information: Kennametal | Solutions for the Most Demanding Industries

12L14 is meant to be free-machining. It is leaded ... didn't think you could do that nowadays, but so be it. The percentage is pretty low. Might explain why it's expensive. Your application is one where just about anything will work. Plain ordinary low-carbon steel AISI 1018 will work just...

Just today, I have seen two Brightdrop 600 delivery vans with Purolator branding (it is possible that it may have been the same one) and a Brightdrop 400 with signs for a local bakery on it.
