    Rider Down - Kennedy and Steeles - 7.15pm

    saw a red yamaha (R1 / R6) down at the intersection of Kennedy and Steeles and two cruisers blocking traffic. Turned back but was stuck behind a long row of cars that quickly piled up. Had to take the smaller streets to head out. Not a good sight to see on the first day I ride again in Toronto...

    I Saw You: V.2.0

    Me : Southbound on Leslie on the white line on a weathered GS500 Naked You : Westbound on York Mills, closely following a bus that stopped behind another bus, only half clearing the intersection. You had to awkwardly pull left on your green sport bike with some form of custom exhaust. Just...

    The Gardiner is falling, the Gardiner is falling...

    Whoa .. Tyranny-onto it is. Brilliant and original. Name calling apart, you have to realize that all the three sprawling suburbs i mentioned do not have as as many offices and corporate power houses of downtown Toronto. Its just block after block of jumbo sized houses. So where do all those...

    The Gardiner is falling, the Gardiner is falling...

    wow.. i thought we would not have to count on that factor of shoddy workmanship, since i thought I moved to the developed world. I forgot this city was built by 'immigrants' like moi. hehe Ill set my expectations a little lower next time. =)

    The Gardiner is falling, the Gardiner is falling...

    Outside the Box? How about a Jet ferry service from Misery-saga to Island Airport ? Jokes aside, yes its true, our climate makes for expensive to maintain roads and land bridges with heavy traffic and load limits usually cost the highest. What Toronto should do is pass a big chunk of the...

    Time to raise a Little Awareness

    yeap turbodish, it is shared responsibility and that is why i suggested right at the start that we should get riders to also pledge that they will put a conscious effort to ride safe and not endanger their own life or other road users. The rally is meant to raise awareness and highlight the...

    Time to raise a Little Awareness

    Spent the afternoon in the lingering memories of Liz at her funeral. As much as I am humbled by her good deeds and her passion for life; I cannot stop thinking that this loss could have been avoided. Nevertheless, I was glad for a moment to be a part of the funeral procession and her final...

    Time to raise a Little Awareness

    Yeap, That is my line of thought too. The group rides on those days have to really demonstrate a lot of discipline on our part as riders. That's the point we will have to stress to the guys / gals leading their teams to the event; to put safety above all else. We will have to remember to carry...

    Time to raise a Little Awareness

    Not too sure if the families would like to see the pictures of their loved ones and the gory details displayed anywhere. But yes, the tone of the ride will be solemn, not fun. And the press release and the media interviews will have more focus on why we are doing this rather than the ride itself.

    Time to raise a Little Awareness

    This is what I could come up with so far: "Ride for Road Safety Awareness Day - 2011" -- Plan the event on a Sunday in July. Main aim would be to raise awareness and create media visibility for the high death toll this season and the past years -- The ride can end with presenting a petition to...
