    The Toronto Motorcycle and Powersport Show - Feb 20-22 @ Exhibition Place

    https://motocanada.com/shows/toronto/ Didn't see a post about this one yet and looking forward to going. The exhibitor list hasn't been released yet, but hoping a good selection of the manufacturer's represent. Last year I grabbed custom earplugs from Ontario Hearing Protection and they are...

    Cuba...

    I loved Cuba. And I liked the food! The people were kind and generous. Havana was really interesting. The only thing I didn’t like was my helmet which had a thick crack down the entire centre of the lid. It was so deep, I could pull the helmet apart into two. But I was wearing a tank top...

    COVID and the housing market

    I really like the condo we have next to Fort York. It's a nice building and will always be a magnet for being rented out because it's one of the older buildings in the area, but not too old. Mortgage is very little and we have a great long term tenant who in turn pays cheap rent. Maint fee is...

    KLR Hwy tires

    I’ve only ever run stock tire sizes on any of the bikes I’ve owned. A question like that I would check on the KLR forum to see what real world feedback is. I’m sure people have either asked about it there or done it. https://www.klr650.net/forums/

    KLR Hwy tires

    Metzler Marathon ME880's are very long lasting hwy tires. I rode with them on my KLR for one season. I found them a bit hard for cornering, but they were great mile munchers.

    Travel visa Aussie/New Zealand

    A cruise around New Zealand? That sounds interesting and a pretty neat trip overall. Out of all the countries I've visited, New Zealand is the only one I've ever felt I could permanently move to. Have a great trip.

    Travel visa Aussie/New Zealand

    Been to both before visa prices went up. I'd happily go back to both and pay the higher visa prices - they are great countries to visit. But that's a long flight for 7 days of travel, so hope you are visiting other places to or from.

    Did you exercise today?

    Agreed. And every time I run downhill - even short distances, I destroy a toenail. I expect nothing less on this. Lot's of yoga, lunges and hill repeats in my near future.

    Did you exercise today?

    Heading to Peru in early April and doing the 4 day Inca Trail Hike. Need to start getting my cardio back and legs in shape:)

    Metal Roofing?

    I have a metal roof and love it. The metal tiles look like a stone or slate from a distance and have a slight texture on them that makes it easier to walk on. I’m sure we have the paperwork somewhere that has the type of tiles we used the vendor who instalment it - can’t recall right now. The...

    North American International Motorcycle Supershow - Jan 9-11, 2026

    The show was awesome and had an awesome time. I grabbed a nice Ogio 3L Dakar hydration knapsack. There was Motul 7100 for $69.99/4L jug. Watched some motocross and spent more time at this show than I have in the past. Saw some great people and beautiful bikes! Would recommend!

    CFNY

    CKLN 88.1! I used tp DJ there and at CIUT and CHRY back in the 90's:) And for me, since I'm not as old as some of you, the best part about CFNY was the live to air shows at the clubs, like Martin Streek at the Phoenix, Chris Sheppard at various spots, and Deadley Hedley / Mark Oliver at Klub...

    North American International Motorcycle Supershow - Jan 9-11, 2026

    That looks like a great trip! 8 days would be a nice pace too:) But it might be pretty cold and/or wet along the coast at that time of year. Looking forward to the show this year and spending money on something.

    Re-sole Motorcycle Boots

    I've been going here for years now and he's resoled all my riding boots, fixed broken zippers and more. Some times he gets really busy with a lot of walk in traffic, so he takes a bit longer than he originally thinks he will take to finish the job - just call him before showing up. His prices...

    Sounds awesome and never been to either spot. We were in Guyana for our first time and heading to Peru in a few months. Enjoy the heat:)
