From Canadian Tire, the one on Mavis and Britannia. I tossed it in my backpack, fully inflated and off I went excited to play! I entered 401 East from Mavis and WOT'd the bike, you know, just to get up to speed. I've carried a lot of stuff on my backpack, but this was the first time this happened.
It was evening, around 7:30pm, the sun was behind me so I was naturally checking out my awesome silhouette that was projected on the road in front of me to the right. No cars behind me, no cars in front of me and I'm cruising around 130km/h.
I pass the Hurontario exit and that's when I see the shadow of a round object eject out of my backpack! A quick glance over my shoulder and there's my brand new volleyball soaring through the air, ****! I just spent $20 on it, there's no way I'm going to leave it behind! I exit on Dixie, loop back around to Mavis and retrace my steps. Thankfully construction workers are building a collectors section and there was my ball, sitting in the corner, scratched to **** but fully intact chilling on the opposite of the barrier. I love my ball.
Moral to the story is, if you have a backpack with dual zipper enclosure, make sure you zip them to the sides, not the top like I did this one time. The wind might cause them to open!
