Summer Motorcycle Night

So Canadian!

This is a Tim Horton’s parking lot, obviously (specifically, Lakeshore & Leslie).

My dream bike – a Ducati 1098

Last year, I was at a bike dealership with a buddy, hey I can finally try on my dream bike… oh. I’m too little and my feet don’t touch; my  dream is dead.

Should I test a Spyder? Work called with that possibility this week… I dunno….

 

Canadian Cars are Different than the USA’s

Our Canadian cars are different than the same model sold in the States. We have more in common with European buyers than those south of the border.

Two Rare Tim Horton's Things

Neatest Tim Horton’s I’ve seen yet.  It’s an old movie theatre.

It was “the Toronto epicentre of a North American movie craze. This occurred back in the mid-1970s, when the Allenby was known as the Roxy, the fetishistically bizarre Rocky Horror Picture Show was screening to capacity crowds in full costume” – Torontoist

A rare hat.

 

This is 'Morning Drive'

I invented it 10 years ago, it’s called “Morning Drive” and may I recommend you try it, too.

Remember, no going places! It’s not about that… it’s more for meandering and ruminating.

And did that floor you too? Toronto being the 5th largest city in North America?!

Here’s a shot of that satellite farm… if you watch TV in the GTA, it likely came through here.



And here’s the map of the route.
