    Canadian Anti-Terrorism Bill

    It's about time the line is drawn in the sand. And in Quebec, Montreal mayor grows balls as he denies controversial imam Hamza Chaoui a permit to establish his Islamic community centre in Mercier-Hochelaga-Maisonneuve. Take note rest of Canada, that's how it's done...

    Tim Horton's Layoffs....

    Fact: Produce a TV ad with a hockey theme and Canadians will automatically buy your product/service. Tim Horton's figured this out years ago.

    Has your girl sat on the Ducati Scrambler? It may be too tall.

    Moto Guzzi or Ducati?

    A 22 litre plastic tank. Not sure if Guzzi solved the problem by now but the early V7 tanks (especially if painted black) would crumple inwards when the weather became hot. Has she considered the Triumph Bonneville?

    Cycle Jockeys

    Tighty whiteys with black socks. What every woman dreams of.

    Art Students...

    These design contests do not attract the best designers. If the government goes that route we will end up with an incredibly mediocre logo and everyone will complain about it. When I was still in art college building up my paid work portfolio, I did a spec sample for someone along with a cost...

    Peel region garbage moving to carts, bi-weekly pickup.

    Whoever designed and tested the green bin sure did a halfass job. Easy to tip and lid pops off upon impact resulting in obese raccoon population explosion.

    Replacing helmet foam

    I've refoamed old helmets. Just use a thin sheet of camping foam .25" or .5" thickness. Trace the area inside the helmet with tissue paper and pencil, transfer to card stock. Trim card stock and test fit, trim more if necessary. Once the fit is good, trace onto foam with sharpie and cut out...

    That's a lot of melted plastic.

    TPS found a stolen bike.. hope the owner sees this

    The owner of the red CB360 originally posted on Kijiji that his bike was stolen. Whoever stole his bike showed up at a shop trying to sell it and another bike, a silver CB350. I assumed someone at the shop ran a check on the bike VINs or saw the stolen bike ad on Kijiji and the red CB360 was...

    Visa just called

    Got this call once: "Hello my name is Martha Myers and I'm calling from Zurich, Switzerland…" I immediately noticed she had a thick East Indian accent and there was a lot of background noise. Whatever her pitch was I just hung up.

    TPS found a stolen bike.. hope the owner sees this

    Most likely the same CB350 described in this: http://www.kijiji.ca/v-street-cruisers-choppers/city-of-toronto/found-stolen-1975-honda-cb360/1043243068?enableSearchNavigationFlag=true Bike probably doesn't have a current registration and last registered owner is long gone. Not worth much.

    Can you recommend an engine rebuilder who works from home within 2 hours of the GTA ?

    Rebuild cost would be nearly the entire value of the bike. Not worth it in my experience. I used to own one, was going to restore it a bit but lost my workspace. It is a very simple bike to work on.
