    Hi folks, I am contemplating a call with my insurance company as I certainly will not make the most out of my coverage which is currently covering 3x 4-wheeled vehicles, and 2x 2-wheeled transports. Might swap out my vfr to fire/theft only and bring back my ex500 from hibernation (ex500 has...

    Hi Folks, Does anyone have experience with a good GPS 'breadcrumb' app that tracks where you ride? I often wander aimlessly on a day ride but have difficulty remembering all the sites and cool areas that I encounter after a long ride back home. I suppose it is like a gps tracker, but more...

    Really **satisfying** charitable work

    Hi folks, Joking aside (there are many), do you know or partake in any charitable work that really make a difference? I've noticed that my happiness for the past while has been flatlining (not depressed, but just an overall irritation at chaos in the rest of the world), and am looking for a...

    Something that popped on my radar today. No affiliation. I might try if the weather is good. All day in the rain isn't too appealing. http://turnkey500.com/ride-details-june21st-2015.php

PS: I understand that the RPHA...

    401, gridlock, decent weather: which is safer? filter between lanes, or on a shoulder

    Hi folks, Not really debating the legality of it. Say you're still alert and not fatigued, but are 5 hours into a return trip back to the GTA core. You are going to filter, but which is the safest 'lane' or shoulder to filter? I'm still pretty "green", only about 7k's in my first season, but a...

    Vinyl/livery memory loss: A-10 Warthog / Jet livery?

    Hi folks, My memory and mind isn't quite working today, and I'm totally blanking on the words that would describe such a vinyl job / livery. But a while back, I thought I saved a pic, but the livery was very "unfinished" but looked terrific at the same time. Base of grey/silver--the fairings...

    Great rate at TD MM

    If you're in the market for insurance and belong to a post-secondary alumni/professional group, give TD MM a ring--just got insured and on the road yesterday, and the rates were even lower than I had originally ballparked prior to purchasing the bike in the fall: OPERATOR: Operator Age: 25...
