    There are some gnarly looking bolt removers sold by Canadian Tire. Sent from my Pixel 6 using Tapatalk

    #$%@ GP Bikes just made my life harder

    Never been to GPBikes, but I've had experiences like this before with my car. ...And so, I change my own oil and my own tires. And when I had go to a mechanic for brakes, I picked my vehicle up with my torque wrench and checked some lug nuts first. Sent from my Pixel 6 using Tapatalk

    3D Printing out of production motorcycle parts (including metal) keeps the classics on the road.

    3d printing is slow. Great for one-offs or prototyping. You're not going to mass produce anything off it for now. Kind of makes it perfect for unique, discontinued parts. Sent from my Pixel 6 using Tapatalk

    Smell Test

    Just like wearing too much makeup, there will always be some young people who have not yet learned subtlety. And just like every generation before us, there will always be those who never learn and carry these behaviors into adulthood. The next one might not be cologne/perfume. Maybe it'll be...

    Max Wrist quit riding street and Winning races on the track

    Max spent years making money by encouraging and glamourizing the behaviour that has contributed indirectly to some deaths. I very much disliked him during that time and felt the world would be a better place without him. I'm glad he changed. No dislike of him anymore. Though I hope he adamantly...

    Well, that didn't take long!

    It's only been one week of "barely" riding season and we've had at least 3 "rider down" messages... Last season felt like a daily rider down post and a weekly fatality. Hope we get better Get your adrenaline here people!

    Do you already have a lawyer handling the will? Maybe they can recommend a good accountant. Sent from my Pixel 6 using Tapatalk

    An alternative for those with a tow hitch is to rent their light trailer which has unlimited kms. Sent from my Pixel 6 using Tapatalk

    New?? U-Haul Policies

    One of the local U-Haul "partner locations" was app only. Very annoying. The U-Haul storage center location doesn't not have this rule, though you need it if returning after-hours. Maybe it's only these 3rd party locations with these rules? The app often works like old bath water. Sent from...

    Quick Jack?

    I watched a YouTube video about this incident. The QJ shot outward into the wall. Very scary. I'm never fully comfortable under a car, always ready to dive out of the way, even from the two-post at the mechanic. It seems the cause is that the QJs weren't parallel. As the car rises towards the...

    Quick Jack?

    I like them a lot. I did the well-known $10 caster mod so they are easier to roll around, because they're 100 lbs each. I'll be updating the casters to all-steel, because these nylon ones are wearing. It takes about the same time to change a set of winter tires for one car. Setup and clean up...

    Proper etiquette "paying it forward"

    I like that. Do something nice for somebody. Hold open a door, or help loading the car. One and done. I'm really only dissing the drive thru game. The first time it happened to me, the drive thru queue had just merged from two to one, and I let someone go first. They arrived after I did, but...

    Proper etiquette "paying it forward"

    Exactly! They asked if I wanted to pay for the next person and I said sure. They said "are you sure, it's two combos?" I always get a breakfast and coffee for the hourlong commute and most often pay forward just buy a coffee or two so I figured "sure, why not" And the minimum wagers were...

    Proper etiquette "paying it forward"

    It happened to me at a Tim's, 5 or 6 times in two years, when I lived in a suburb in Vaughan. Each time, it felt right to keep it going, so I did. I felt really good about myself. I'm such a great person. [emoji3577] As someone else mentioned, no one in that line needs a handout. And recently I...

    Recycling bin junkie!

    I just keep 3 or 4 empty windshield washer bottles on the shelf beside the fresh oil, coolant, and other fluids. I throw away the rest unless my stockpile is low. Same with cardboard. I always have a couple of small shipping boxes and as many of the larger furniture boxes (flattened) as...
