    New rider in Stouffville

    I ride the Ganny also, just not as much as I'd like. I fish in Port Perry all the time, didn't know there was anywhere to ride out there.

    New Rider Here!

    Well you've picked a good time to get into the sport now that the manufacturers are paying more attention to entry level bikes. I've been riding since 82 and got my wife into off-road riding in 87. Correct, we're in the north end of Whitby. Ride our dirtbikes in the Ganny and she does some...

    New Rider Here!

    Good to hear. The 250's a great bike to learn on! Had a customer that rode all over Canada and the States on one and it proved to be a tough little bike. Enjoy the sport on whatever you end up getting.

    Sena S10R

    Is anyone using the Sena SR10 unit here? It connects via bluetooth to Sena or Scala headsets and hardwires to various FRS radios to extend the range for bike to bike communication. My Scala rider headset is only good for about 900 metres when there's nothing between myself and another rider...

    Question about upcoming court date.

    Got a call at work last week from my son. He had borrowed my bike, (without my permission or knowledge) and was pulled over by police exceeding the posted speed limit. Since he was traveling at 50 kph over the limit my bike was impounded for a week. He has a court date in less then a month for...

    Finally on two wheels - New Rider

    Great bike you've got there! You should get yourself a Ganny pass if you haven't already and hit the trails. I'm going to be trying to get out there this fall on my 300XC-W. Welcome to the sport and have fun!

    Whitby New Rider New Bike

    Welcome! Cool bike that Beemer. As long as you use common sense and the bike is not too tall or heavy for you, you should be fine. Middle aged just means your throttle hand is controlled from above your shoulders, not below your belt line like the younger ones. Enjoy yourself.

    First season of riding. Found another reason to hate winter.

    Welcome to the addiction!! Now you need to get a dirtbike, stud up the tires, get some guards and a tether switch and hit the ice this winter. Makes the cold months easier to live with.

    Mosport with Pro6

    I was there all week doing air fence top-ups. My son and I took around 1000 pics from different spots around the track. If anyone's interested let me know what bike you were on and what # you had on it and I can see if I have any of you. I'll just email you any that I may have. I've got some in...

    Corrosion of Track Bike Engines running only water?

    If it's de-ionized water you mean RockerGuy's explanation sounds good to me. But demonized water, that stuff sounds evil. I wouldn't put it my bike!

    ABS brakes vs non ABS

    I bought my first ABS bike last year and this safety feature is the only thing besides the seat that I don't like about my new ride. The ABS kicks in too often and easily. Also I don't like the feel of the bike when the ABS activates. The first time I felt it I was braking for a corner on damp...

    Newbie's from Whitby

    Yup, that was me back there, I remember turning down Thickson. My wife spotted your wife on her way home from work a couple days ago. She described a bike she was trying to identify and I asked if the rider was wearing a jacket with a pink pattern on it. The rider was and I knew it was probably...
