2017 Observations while riding

I'm starting to see more 2-wheel traffic on the Don Mills Expressway -

Heritage Softail (lady rider?)

A big-dude riding a V-star 250 (looks like you're enjoying the commute)

And then on the way home - passed an SV650?

Varadero dude - straighten up please, could've fit another bike in there...

And for the fashion files:

The slim blonde on the right has some sexy boots, but I bet that she has a bigger penis than you...
 
Yep. Bus is blocking the bicycle lane. Then again the bikes are supposed to stop when the sign is out.
 
Lots of bikes passing the other way, DVP south ~5pm

Streetglide, 1/2 helmet, left hand on hip. How much cooler can you get?

Trouble on 404S. Didn't this exact same accident at this exact same place happen on Monday evening? Hmmm....

The cop in the left lane stops to let a left turner in. Look at my right mirror - it didn't look that bad in person...

That's why it's not always good to be nice. The driver behind you wasn't expecting you to stop. Would have been his fault, but still hassle you don't need. A riding buddy is overly nice and when riding sweep with him I get into almost the same situation on occasion.
 
it's not unless you are a taxi or bus or emergency vehicle or utility/city working. $60 fine and could be towed.

If you get caught STOPPED on a bike lane, it's $60. If you get caught PARKED on a bike lane, it's actually $150. I get them all the time as I'm a courier downtown. I also see the parking enforcement officer pictured quite often in Yorkville, she's actually a pretty cool person
 
Riding in the rain. Nothing exciting here.

Yamaha Star guy stuck in the merge lane. Dude - get some stick-on convex mirrors like mine!

Ninja 650 (with stick-on convex mirrors, LoL)

Third year in a row that I’ve seen Skater girl commuting along Queen St on rollerblades.

A CBR300F parked very close to me (fire hydrant to my right). A tight fit, but I made it out.

(Yes, I know, time for a clutch adjustment…)

Douchebaggy parking.
 
Very douchy parking, wow.

I would have asked that parking enforcement officer if they could ticket that bike for that.
 
Tuesday -


Playing possum?

Now here's a douchey way to park. Already has a ticket and lucky not towed yet.

You wouldn't believe me if I try to explain, so you're just going to have to click and watch this!

Toronto Spider-Man and Toronto Batman are 2 pretty fun loving dudes! I see Spider-Man is typically on queen street more often tho, "hangs around" in the TTC sometimes too.
