    Any golfers here ?

    There are times that golfers hate the game of golf. :ROFLMAO: I know there are many times I question why I even try to play the game.

    Any golfers here ?

    He wouldn't have found any of my balls then. I'm a lefty with a slice so they all go to the other side of the fairway, or onto the next fairway.:ROFLMAO:

    Any golfers here ?

    Yeah, that's one I always misspell. I look at "lose" and think that can't be right and then change it. At least I know the difference between there, their and they're.:D

    Any golfers here ?

    I now play about once a week; however, you wouldn't know that looking at my scorecard. I began playing more often after I retired and got a part-time job at a golf/ski resort where I play for free. Still loose plenty of balls, but haven't bought one in over 10 years. Working at a course lets you...

    What did you do in your garage today..?

    I wait for the twice yearly sales of synthetic oil at Canadian Tire when it's about 50% off. Regardless of when my oil change is due I'll buy a jug on sale and put it on the shelf. I'm lucky, the filter for my CX-3 is less than $15 at the dealer and they toss in a crush washer.

    Interesting Ruling Regarding Motorcycle Crash - City at Fault

    I wonder if this ruling would extend to sidewalks. Some sidewalks in Orangeville have heaved up about 5cm and present a tripping hazard for pedestrians. The Town's answer; come around every summer and paint the raised edge with orange paint! They've been doing this for decades and the problems...

    Macdocs Lament ••• Forks - same old same old, maybe a bit better.

    Heal well MacDoc. I take it you remain in hospital. How long until you get released? I guess there are many bike collisions that are not worthy of a news report because I don't recall hearing of that many recently where the riders required hospitalization.

    Macdocs Lament ••• Forks - same old same old, maybe a bit better.

    The "squeeze" has been in effect on Hockley for the past several years. Apparently one of the locals was able to convince Mono area councillors that the speed limit on the Hockley Road approaches to Airport Road should be reduced to 50 kph. I don't recall hearing about a sudden rash of...

    Macdocs Lament ••• Forks - same old same old, maybe a bit better.

    It had been years since I've driven or ridden on Mississauga Road south of Belfountain. On a recent ride through the area I was surprised at the number of new traffic signals that have been installed. However, the one at Olde Base Line Road wasn't a compete surprise because of the poor...

    Do the numbers count?

    Almost doesn't count, sadly that's just a daily occurrence. How often has someone made an illegal / stupid move that required you to take evasive action to avoid a collision? With the quality of drivers in this Province, it should come as no surprise. If you can avoid a collision using defensive...

    The Grange Sideroad - Closed Sections

    I don't typically come that far south. It's on my shorter 1.5 hour loop that takes in The Forks once a year. I'll now wait until the fall to try it again. CR 9 is more fun anyway, oh and by the way the bridge just west of Dunedin is being reconstructed so there is a traffic signal alternating...

    The Bad Drivers of Ontario Thread

    I worked for the TTC back then and can advise that there were many reasons for this work. There was a public meeting held by City staff to communicate the changes to the interchange that were associated with this work. The changes began because the stairs down from The Kingsway to the car stops...

    The Grange Sideroad - Closed Sections

    Went out for a ride on Wednesday and found two sections of The Grange Sideroad are closed for construction until September. I wasn't aware, so I'm letting others know that The Grange Sideroad is not an option between Caledon and Highway 10 for the rest of the summer. The Grange Sideroad is...

    The Bad Drivers of Ontario Thread

    Terrible ramp design; not sure why it wasn't closed years ago. You can't see northbound traffic if you stop at the stop bar and if you pull out far enough to see, you are blocking the pedestrian crossing and risking being clipped by northbound traffic, which is usually speeding.

    Motorcycle Tires

    Wow, $20 per wheel carried in! I just paid $60 per wheel carried in at the shop I used in Caledon. Oh well, I'll make note of Mikeymoto for future use. I definitely recommend Pete's for tires. I ordered a pair of tires from him in late April and they were delivered within two days. Great...

    What did you do in your garage today..?

    I installed replacement (used) front calipers on the ST and bled the front and rear brakes. Last month when I removed the wheels to replace the tires, I checked the brakes and noticed the front pads were worn past the point where they should have been replaced. Normally it's an easy job; all...

    I don't ride on weekends at all and definitely NOT on a long weekend! Retirement has its advantages.

    CAN-AM Demo day Sat June 3 @ Two Wheel Motorsport Guelph

    I've been curious about these machines for a few years now. Two of my friends own them and one of them is on his second one. I've signed up for the demo to see if they are anything to consider in the future. Thanks for the link.

    If my helmet was stolen ...

    Same here. The good thing is when it's closed there is no way to know if there's anything in it, so most thieves will just walk on by. However, one time after locking my helmet in the trunk I return and find the trunk lock is broken and I can't open it to get my helmet. No matter how much I...
