Those moments were likely between Prince of Wales Road and Kilgorie. I've had one or two myself in that area. It's not as bad since they resurfaced that section a couple of years ago. They widened the roadway a little and that seems to have reduced the amount of gravel kicked onto the roadway by...

Here's my route to avoid Airport Road north of Hockley Valley Road. BTW, I also prefer to ride east to west along 20th Sideroad/River Road. I'll take Hockley Valley Road eastbound past Airport Road and through the village, then go north on Concession 4, east on 89, north on CR 13 to Everett...

UPDATE: The resurfacing of this section of 20th Sideroad/River Road is now complete. Beautiful new asphalt surface, but still that ridiculous 50 kph limit. I was up there Wednesday and they were just doing the final touches to the shoulders.

Be warned, River Road is currently under construction between Terra Nova to Kilgorie. I was up there yesterday and they have ground up the asphalt surface and were laying a soft sand / gravel mixture along the entire length. Very exciting on a heavy street bike, but could be fun on an adventure...

So sad to hear of your loss. We lost our Aussie Sheppard just over two years ago and I still think of him.

So this sh*tshow should arrive at 10 / Hockley at about 2:30? Noted. I might want to sit in the park on the northwest corner and watch as they make the turn. Could be entertaining.

Those are the people who come up here to Orangeville and then wreak havoc on the 410. I'm sure this is the real reason why Brampton drivers take up at least 60% of the testing slots at the Orangeville DriveTest centre. The G2 Exit test up here would be a cake-walk as compared to the test in...

I have a couple of cans on the shelf so no worries at the moment. If this ban does happen in Canada, it will simply be another thing to pick up when I go shopping in the US.

I would support a 14 day lock-up of the driver as well as the vehicle in this instance. At least he won't be driving this vehicle again for a couple of weeks. Any bets on how many more times he will be caught driving while under the new extended suspension period?

That would be the best traffic calming measure ever!:ROFLMAO: It would certainly keep me out of that area.

I've never owned a bike with any of the electronic aids in the list. My car has ABS and TC and I like the ABS, but hate the TC. Fortunately the TC can be turned off when having fun with the AWD in the snow. As far as consideration goes when looking for a bike, here's my list: ABS - B TC - A CC...

Peel and stick 3M products should work well. Just cut it to the approximate size of the lens opening and keep handy for when you see one that needs a new lens cover.:D

This statement made me laugh. Photo radar is ONLY about the money because they don't care who was driving. IF they really wanted to get convictions and possibly change driver behaviour they would have a cop at the "dangerous location" handing out real tickets with more consequences, ie. points...

Try Bolts+. The last time I was in the Brafasco here in Orangeville they insisted I needed to buy more than the two bolts I needed. I think it was a minimum order of 10. I haven't been back there since!

We were rained out. Got to the fifth green and was having a great game then the skies opened up. We bailed and the others got rain-checks. I don't pay because I'm an employee, so no worries if I don't play the full 18. Hope to continue this game on Tuesday, weather permitting.

Ah, there's my problem. My R9 driver is about 14 years old.:D I bought it used at least 5 years ago. My Burner irons are even older, but I can hit most of them fairly well and like their feel. I've tried a few demo drivers over the years and have just decided to keep using the clubs I have...

I've given away dozens of Pro V1 and 1X's. I find them all over the place and simply can't hit them hard enough to get any benefit out of using them. I give them to friends who have a more powerful swing.

I don't have a ball retriever in my bag and can only remember a few times where it would have been useful. I find far more golf balls than I lose, so I'm not concerned if I put one or two into the water every round. Half the time I won't even go into the bush looking for a ball because I don't...

A few years ago while working the gate at Hockley a golfer arrived on a Harley with his bag attached to the back of the bike. He had made a small platform that sat at the rear of the bike and held his bag standing upright. The platform looked like he had used a motorcycle trailer hitch and...

I've never had a one ball day. The best I've done is to lose just two balls over the round. I play mostly for the entertainment value and time with friends on the course. I'm not that good that a bad shot (or 10) would make me unleash a string of profanity. I've only broken 100 once or twice in...
