  1. Happy Birthday Wayne. Hope Robin spoils you.
  2. Don't forget to put the some of the blame where it really belongs. Up until free trade agreements companies had to have plants or other investments in the country they intended to sell(Canada specific). After free trade all our businessess shrunk and moved in the name of profits not necessarily union wages. I am happy living the life I do thanks to unions and not the third world living that the companies steal their profits from. I have worked for companies with and without a union and if the company is fair to its employees than I agree no union is required but we have seen how that works most of the time. Just my rant!
  3. We can only get the black one in Canada according to the reps I spoke to at last weeks bike show in Toronto. As for the CB1100A we can only get the white one as the red is only available in the USA. Go figure???? I love the wing in black but need the extras (back rest etc) for touring with the wife so I will wait till next year and see what they offer.
  4. Totally opposite of this. I was a telephone lineman for 38 years and climbing ladders and poles and even mid span never bothered me. Just something about bridges and looking down. I think it stems from when I was a kid and we walked across train tressels. I always thought I was going to fall through the tracks.
  5. Never done that bridge or been to PEI. Want to go there someday though. Been everywhere else in the east. Missed our chance in 2008 when we were in NFLD. Ran into storms on the way home and cancelled PEI.
  6. Very nice. You always have great looking toys Eddie. I love the white. Enjoy. Just got a new F150 myself a couple of months ago.
  7. I have always had a phobia of high bridges on the bike. I have crossed many border bridges and they always seem to be high and I get stuck at the top so the wind will blow me around. I have also crossed the Mackinac bridge in a rain storm and had to use the grate lane as the paved was closed. Simply I hate bridges, Now someone sent me this link and confirms my fears. I know I could not cross this. Some here might like this challenge. I would like to know how they built it? Enjoy the clip. http://www.youtube.com/embed/4T4vc1QqiPM

  16. Glad everyone is ok. Hope Marca or you didn't hurt anything that will show up later. These bikes are heavy and we think we can hold them up. I hate riding in fields as much as riding on gravel. Have a great weekend and safe ride on Monday.

  20. On vacation and just saw this. I would be in for two. Too late to vote but I like the maple leaf on the sleeve.
  21. Hey Don: Dianne uses a Cannon camera and it works well with the movement of the bike. The pictures come out very clear. It's a couple of years old model Powershot A720 so I would say they are recommending a good one to you.
  22. AHHH. Swifty Comes to the rescue. Didn't anyone ever tell you to stay away from hot mufflers? Have a great holiday Dave and hope to see you soon.
