    Southbound 400 to 401EB onramp -- Gravel spill

    Was just informed by a friend that the 401EB on-ramp from the southbound 400 is covered in a fair amount of gravel, apparently from some kind of spill. He didn't clarify exactly where on the ramp, but that particular ramp is difficult to see ahead on due to the high walls, so be careful if...

    Black Friday shopping

    Snow City is having a big sale tomorrow, check them out. Planning on picking up a new lid and some other stuff if I can get over there.

    November riders...post your rides. Season's not over yet

    I'm currently out in the Uxbridge area, haven't really been here in a long time. Awesome weather, but the roads are a bit wet and still cold up here. Brand new Tourance tires on the V-Strom feel great in the gravel roads up here, but a bit squirrelly at times. Man are there ever a lot of...

    Motul 7100 vs 300V?

    Interesting. I'm thinking there's got to be more to it than 300v being more for racing/short change intervals, but that said I think I'll also be sticking to 7100. Significantly cheaper, and being on a sport tourer it's unlikely I'd ever be tracking it anyway. Seems odd to me that the guy...

    Motul 7100 vs 300V?

    Just a quick question; I'm currently using Motul 7100 in the bike, but was recently recommended to switch up to 300V. What's the difference between the two? He explained it as being a double synthetic IIRC, and I could have heard wrong, but I only have basic knowledge of motor oils and I'm...

    November riders...post your rides. Season's not over yet

    Heh, I'll second that. Always get a kick out of the "wtf" looks I get from people as I ride by in freezing temps. It's not even that chilly out yet and some of my coworkers think I'm nuts for being out there every day. That said, I just picked up a Ballistic 12-cell battery for the V-Strom...

    Can't knock this girl down

    An impressive recovery indeed. Good to see you weren't scared off by the experience and very impressed you got back out on 2 so quickly. My day has not yet come, save for a minor drop or two; definitely had a few major close calls, but I hope if I ever have an accident like yours that I'm as...

    November riders...post your rides. Season's not over yet

    Haven't had time to get out much these past several weeks, so I'll take whatever I can get. Rode out to GP to check out their sales today, have been out for a few hours so far. Nothing quite like a nice cool ride in the rain to clear the mind.. and wash the bike & gear.. hehe.

    I'll be heading down tonight along with a few friends. Hope to see lots of riders out while the nice weather holds.

    Rider Down Lawrence and DVP

    Any word on the make/model of bike and the rider's condition? A coworker of mine was headed that way right about the same time.

    FS: Givi E460 case + top-rack

    Hey folks, I just upgraded to a larger top box, so I've got my black Givi MonoKey E460 46L case plus its luggage top-rack (Givi E81) up for sale. The case comes with ONE key (only came with one when I bought the bike) and is in pretty good condition. It does have a slight discoloration which...

    Recommendation for a Touring Jacket

    I have the Teknic Freeway jacket, which (if you close the vents) is highly water resistant/perhaps waterproof, and particularly warm with its liner installed. http://www.teknicgear.com/freeway-jacket/ It goes for around $499, in the mid range for jackets, but well worth it. For some reason...

    Every Thursday night - Lakeshore and Leslie???

    Was going to head down, but sounds like nobody showed? Or was everyone asked to leave again?

    Every Thursday night - Lakeshore and Leslie???

    I'm not sure I'd go so far as to say we've been there with permission. They've "tolerated" us for the last several months, if anything, and it's only been a matter of time before the police got involved again.

    Every Thursday night - Lakeshore and Leslie???

    Yeah, that was interesting. I didn't catch exactly what they were saying, but apparently there were several complaints (gee, I wonder from whom...) and it was our first warning to vacate.

    I Saw You: V.2.0

    To the retard squid on a black SS who blitzed up splitting the middle lane, cut me off entering the Kennedy 401EB ramp, and then proceeded to perform an epic wobbly lean at a decelerating 20kph to avoid ramming into the SUV that was in front of me: HI. You're an idiot. Bad enough watching for...

    Rider down

    Forgive my ignorance, but what would they mean by "unmarked crosswalk"? Does that simply mean one with no crossing sign/lights (most likely)? (Edit: Looks like there's one of those "median style" crosswalks in the area, I'm assuming this is what they were referring to... I've never liked...
