    Near Fatal Crash Riding My Bike Last Saturday

    also passing on the right shoulder of the road. If you are stopped to make a left turn and a vehicle is passing on the gravel shoulder and oncoming traffic is turning left, then you are in the middle of a $hit show.

    Didn't ride this year...

    About 20 years ago I retired my ride and hung up the helmet for 3-4 years as life was busy and I couldn't justify the insurance. I became a grump and was not easy to live with. At some point my wife insisted I take the bike out of retirement. Recently, most of my riding friends sold their...

    Saw a distracted driver get caught today.

    A few years ago I observed a cop dressed like a construction worker, hard hat and all in an active highway resurfacing construction site. he seemed to be busy handing out plenty of tickets.

    Another scam

    I keep blocking their phone numbers but they seem to have endless more. Funny how said phone numbers are similar to mine.

    The body of water or cooling towers the generating station is next to removes a significant amount of thermal energy. Once the superheated steam leaves the High Pressure and then the LP turbines it needs to be moved further along so more steam can enter the turbine The energy left in steam...

    New tires for new season 2020 - options, supplier, installer

    Front tire replacement. Using a front wheel lift (from the goose neck), remove wheel. Using a large vice, carefully break the bead all the way around. Soak the wheel in the sun as long as possible (need a hot day). Using the ziptie method the tire should be easily removed as the inside diameter...

    China

    Not powerless. Just don't or at least limit Chinese purchases and their substandard products. I know it's not easy and it's often tempting but the more disciplined we are at reading the "made in Canada" ect label the better off we're going to be. Just my 2 cents I'll get off my soap box now lol

    Hydro R/W's and Corridors for ADV's

    A new bylaw in my area now prohibits use of trails along highway 35. These trails were used by atv's, snowmobiles and dirt bikes forever. I currently have no access to the snowmobile trail from my house thanks to this nonsense. A trial period with posted signs for atv access into town (for...

    2022 Gas Prices - Will $2(+) per Litre slow you down?

    phenomenal beast indeed. Phenomenal repair costs as well. I can't justify the added cost unless I were making a living with it and using it every day. This beast is best if one could write it off with creative business tax...

    At this point might as well refurb. We are not building any new coal plants soon and we still have to charge electric cars eh.

    Ural press release

    OPG lined SNC's pockets for Darlington's nuclear refurbishment. As best I can tell, that was a giant waste of money.

    Ural press release

    Is the 407 owned by Russians? If so is the Ford gov. acting on this? Just asking because I really don't know.

    2022 Gas Prices - Will $2(+) per Litre slow you down?

    Alas I'm seriously considering purchasing a new F250. I have to pull horses and trailer around to horse shows, haul my snowmobile around and many other uses... It's going to be a real truck with an 8' box. Fortunately I'm mostly a homebody so using it every day is a non issue. I'm getting the...

    Damon motorcycles

    I will as well for as long as possible. I'm sure one day battery/motor/ range/recharge tech will make it impossible to overlook electric. My e-mountain bike has convinced me to be open minded.
