Ontario GTA photo tag

If it was a Black Ninja 400R, that was me. Got going the wrong way on Bayview so had to take DVP back down the over to the Novotel...

I cut my late night ride short to ride home after stopping in a Live Lane, near a "No Stopping" sign just to lose out to another Blackberry?!?!
Nice night for a ride though, and if I wasn't so shaky after a late night coffee I would have had a decent shot. :shaking2:

Sorry to waste your gorgeous shot on my spectacular failure of a night-time shot but the blackberry is just too convenient when doing hit and runs (that and I don't own a digital camera), and the tag was too close to pass up. That shot wasn't easy to find, I spent 45 minutes walking up and down broadview trying to find the right spot, and ran into a guy from East End Riders in the process...
 
I just walked the little Golden Google guy down Broadview until the CN Tower was just left of ScotiaPlaza, voila 501 Broadview.
It is all good as I enjoy the DVP at around mid-night and usually take the Gardiner to 427 to 401 to 404 home which is funny 'cause on my weekend ride I avoid the 400 series like the plague but at night just get to top gear and go, not worry about traffic lights, left turners, 90 yr. olds in Buicks, just fighting for your spot and making sure everyone around knows you are there and figuring out who is drunk, who is texting who is going to come into my lane next and avoiding the lot. It is a different kind of rush than the twisties of Muskoka but a rush just the same. I hope you enjoyed your ride just as much!

Normally I'd do that, but with the tag being so close and fearing someone else would snag it (apparently rightly so), my fiancee has never seen me put my gear on so fast...
 
yeazz that was me you met last night hhaha..kind of random at like midnight. I went for a walk and I was sitting on the hill and i see this guy taking 25 pics and dashing across the road and what not..so i figured I would go talk to him and see whats up. Turns out he was Giesen from GTAM and doing the photo tag...its too bad about the quality of the pic you were able to get because the city looked wicked last night.
 
Wish i could have joined in over the weekend. Heres what i was up to. Sign says twisties for 16 km :-)

for what it's worth, your "Novotel" pic has a far greater resemblance to the tag pic posted by giesen than rafiki's.
And yes, over all, love your high-quality pix!
