Riding your bike home or to a store -- accidents can still happen. Me, I'd rather be out a couple bucks instead of possibly screwing myself out of proper medical coverage. Worst case, I call a buddy and say, "Hey, my bucket got stolen. Think you may be able to get one to me?" Pay them for their...

Your insurance is registered in Canada, right? YOU NEED TO WEAR A HELMET. PERIOD. EVEN IN THE STATES WHERE IT IS NOT LAW. If you get into an accident and end up with any sort of head trauma, your insurance policy is null and void. The company will simply deny your claim as you were not wearing...

About 1.5 years ago, an end unit townhouse directly across the street from me (in Eastbridge, Waterloo - a nicer area) sold for $1.2M. Another end unit, next block over from mine, which was nicer than the prior unit, sold for $855.5K last week. Ouch.

Not quite accurate. If you do your test on a trike of any type, you get an MM license - you cannot ride a 2 wheel bike legally. If you get an M license, you can ride a trike.

Had 1, who insisted he was mature enough for a CBR600rr as a starter bike. He was early 30’s with a wife and child. Within 2 weeks of his M2 course he was dead. Way too fast into a turn, ran wide and straight into an oncoming pickup truck.

Khazakstan cancelled… https://www.crash.net/motogp/news/1024663/1/kazakhstan-motogp-cancelled-2023-calendar-reduced-one-round

How about the extra 5 days the gov’t have put into play? Can’t split them down into hours. If you use 1 minute as a personal day, the whole day gets burned. They also get used before your regular personal day off hours. Considering this, I get 5 gov’t days, then 3 more personal days. Maybe...

If you’re a full timer and own your own route, chances are you’ll get it done before the official end time of your shift. Would be dumb not to pick up a section of overtime if offered. Each route has 3 sections - one of which is junk mail (have to hit every house). Chances are you’ll get done...

Lucky. Posties get paid crap. On-call basis for ages, maybe 2 years before you get hired permanent part time… then you get paid $23ish. You get $1 more per year after that, capping out at $31. So it’s a real struggle to make it up the ranks to full time without a side hustle.

Well I’m glad that there’s more coming out to fill in the details.

So far, 5 motorcyclists have been shot. Sad sad day. https://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/ny-driver-shooting-spree-texas-motorcyclists-20230414-htpznghkovh6lp74hetvlw3x2u-story.html

Just last week, there was a homeless person outside the grocery store I go to. Looked none too good. I grabbed him a sandwich, 'cause I was feeling nice. Offered it to him, he refused and wished I had given him the money instead. Sigh. Was a tasty sandwich too - my stomach didn't complain.

No. My KTM hides under it too well. ;)

See if you can get a Hyosung cover… If I recall correctly they made a cruiser style bike. With any luck, that cover will fit the Diavel reasonably well. Any thief in their right mind wouldn’t steal a Hyosung.

My take was self pity, evolving to wanting to be a better man and parent, no matter the cost, which in the end was his life.

Bootlegging gasoline is a MUCH MUCH MUCH more involved process than booze or cigarettes. Pump the crude. Refine the crude. Anyone with a bath tub can make booze, and anyone with a garden can grow tobacco.

Lots of huge surprises in the GP race today... was wet, which really lets certain riders shine.

Holy Crap.. what an amazing sprint race… a complete dark horse taking the win. Love it!

Absolutely your right to bring it up to the depot. Ask to talk to the supervisor of your street, and they'll figure something out. Arm yourself with photos of the no parking signs and where the CMB is located.

Still watching Star Trek: Picard. Season 3 now, Episode 7 of 10. It's very entertaining and well done. Lots of "Next Generation" and "Voyager" cast integration.
