    Fell down on Forks of the Credit

    I decided to ride out today before coming back to do the maintenance stuff, since the weather was real nice today I thought. I happened to be browsing gorideontario.ca and decided to try out Terra Cotta and Forks of the Credit. I fell down at Forks of the Credit right after one of the speed...

    Where did you learn to maintain your bike?

    First day of practicing in parking lot

    So I got a CBR125 today in the morning, decided to start practicing this afternoon at a semi-vacant parking lot that was close and just across the street. I set up some saucer discs I bought from Canadian Tire on the lot to practice slow speed steering, which I didn't do so hot during RTI. You...

    Preface: I got my M1 license on June 1st, just finished taking the M1 exit course with RTI (I love Greg, so humourous lol), and am looking to get my first bike. Does anybody have any experience with purchasing used bikes on Kijiji? I see quite alot of good old sportbikes (250 Ninjas, 500...
