There are supposedly cars now that you can't change the brake pads on, without connecting to a dealer network and using their software. The era of the $500 oil change is approaching.

Neighbour is getting a fourth car, a model Y. I think our federal taxes might be subsidizing it.

I have a separate jump starter. Couldn’t find one that would boost and fill more than a half a tire for a decent price.

Ewww. That’s a nope, nope, nope from me.

I have some Bose QC earbuds, as well as, hearing aids that both fit in my C5 helmet. Both would disappear quickly, were I to wear them regularly. The C5’s built in speakers are good enough with foam earplugs.

I ended up with a usb one from Costco. The 12 v plug in ones would blow fuses in all of my vehicles. I think I got mine on sale, https://www.costco.ca/fanttik-s200-apex-tire-inflator.product.4000403043.html

Have to be sixteen in Ontario Riding an e-bike

They like stains and rotting wood. Hope that bugs haven't moved in. Paper is there in case something was nesting in the hole. It is easier to tear/dig/eat through a sheet of newspaper than a sheet of drywall. If the paper is intact in a couple more days, I'll patch it with tin. One family...

We’ve been visited by a Woodpecker, so I got out some newspaper and duct tape and sealed a few holes that it made

Pizza tends to be more consistent. Will the hotdogs or pizza have pork in them? That would rule out some people.

Went to the Home Depot to get one. Looked all over the Milwaukee displays and couldn’t find one. Went up the aisle where two of the staff were discussing getting another lock cage for these, since inventory showed them having thirty-six and the one gentleman could only find seven.

Successful motorcycle shops become a victim of their own success. Eventually, they get too much business and have to hire more staff. I've had the issue from every shop I've been to, except my most recent, and others have complained about it. First shop I ever took my bike to, was Ontario...

My street in Ottawa hasn’t been replaced since I moved here - fifteen years ago. The riding roads I’ve been on this year have been good.

Found out last weekend that using Applemaps Bluetoothed to a Chinese screen is a bad way to navigate. Lead rider kept turning early or late, probably because of the lag. Garmin had an issue whereby if we were off of the route for too long it would drop the entire thing, and it was too many...

The dotted passing sections have been gradually disappearing over the years. It used to be that anywhere that was straight with clear sightlines would have a dotted line, but not so much anymore. Only saw the usual too small vehicle pulling too large a trailer 30-40 km below the speed limit...

Not sure how well this link will work. We went to Huntsville over the weekend. The Ottawa BMW club was also there, and they spent four days touring around the area. I tried converting tracks into routes and merging them in MyRouteApp, but I never got a merge button. Here's the link of where...

The real anti theft when my Integra and two dozen other cars were stolen from the condo garage, was the manual choke on the British sports car.

Done that before. It sucks though if you miss a turn.

I'm using MyRouteApp that Shane posted about some time ago. I've just put in a weekend route to Huntsville and spent a few minutes figuring out how to export it to my Zumo XT.
