    Girl Blindly Running Through an Intersection!

    Was it even legal for the bicycle to be on the sidewalk? (I do sympathize with people who don't want to mix bicycles with traffic, but hey!) Bicycle riders that think that they're some kind of 40 kph pedestrian just because they're on the sidewalk give me acid burn. The ones on the street who...

    Motorcycles used to be cool

    That guy got so mad that he threw his bike at the other guy? I don't think I'd like him when he's angry!

    Caledon Noise Bylaw for motorcycles

    Couldn't that be said about loud pipes too? Drivers won't bother looking because they expect to hear bikes a mile away? White, or at least solid light coloured helmets do reduce the chance of an accident*, that from the Hurt Report onwards. Situational awareness is the most important, but every...

    I Saw You: V.2.0

    I wasn't going to ride Friday morning because it was raining, but then I checked the Environment Canada radar weather map and noticed that the rain was about to stop in 15 minutes or so. And it did! There was a little road spray on the visor, a few drops of rain here and there, but it was fine.

    Girls - what do you think of the gear selections?

    The Ladies' Barbour International jacket for that hot retro look: Of course, that's waxed cotton and it needs some under-armor, but at least it protects better than a t-shirt, right? Women and motorcycles MOTORESS Connecting Women With Motorcycling, and more on Motoress.com

    Cheap GPS device @ Canadian Tire, may be great for warm weather rides.

    Hah, I was going to unscrew mine to see how easy it would to spray the black bits an aged bronze colour for a Steampunk "Etheric locator" look. (GIS "Steampunk Monitor" and you can't go too wrong.) Although, I wonder how a metallic paint coat would affect reception? It does seem to have trouble...

    Cheap GPS device @ Canadian Tire, may be great for warm weather rides.

    It was a scavenger hunt, but I got one! I checked Newmarket first, nope. Bypassed Aurora since they were out on Friday. Richmond Hill North was out (I'd been told they had 20-30 on Friday. None now.) Richmond Hill at Bayview and High Tech, success! I'm not sure how many more they have. You...

    Cheap GPS device @ Canadian Tire, may be great for warm weather rides.

    At Aurora, they were out of them this evening. (I get the impression that some of the staff bought a bunch.) The guy said there's supposed to be 28 or so at Oak Ridges, so maybe I'll go for a spin tomorrow morning before the rain starts. An excuse to go riding, woo-hoo! oh, wait.. I don't...
