LOL...go freakin figure. I would say the 8 is the safest, since we give a **** about our cars and look before turning, compared to the other ones in the picture.

U have a POS tailgating you with a woman driving...now that's scary!

Footman, not trying to sound like a smart alec, but you realize that your M1 expires in 3 months, and hat the M2 course costs 400? And most places are stopping courses by November. Unless your taking the M1 just for the hell of it.

Thats why I'm waiting till next year. Also did you get insurance to quote you yet?

I'm studying now, but I'm not doing the M1 until next year. It'll be a refresher next year when I do it.

Ya, but have you seen it up close. Go to Kennedy and Ellesmere, theres a Snow Mountain Bike Shop.

Its a tiny bike. Cheap, cheap on insurance, wont get you killed, but its tiny and slow.

Plus most use it as a trainer bike and than swap out.

Im just gonna skip the step and go straight to the 600. If you take the course, and drive smart.

But if your serious about the bike, I am, and if Faded is too, I have another firend also.

We could all buy in the states and get them shipped up here.

Bikes are dirt cheap in the US.

Slow is the key... like I said... walk before running, hence I wanted something I can easily control...

Seeing all those nooks and crannies on the bike makes me cringe when it's time for me to wash it..... so many spots to clean!

i wrote my m1 for fun last year just walked in wrote it passe. then proceeded to ride my friends bikes from time to time. i now know i cant be trusted on a bike way to much fun to be had.
i do worry about you getting a bike Andrew since I've seen you drive your car, a certain pass going up hill comes to mind.
quick fact motorcycles make up 2% of the driving population and account for 10% of fatalities

Why is that pass so memorable to you all??!?!!??! Darkbrew nags about it too. It was a fairly standard pass.. no drama.

Is your iPhone still going to miss calls 80% of the time?

Dude, it didnt miss your calls, it was that one time.

Jailbroke iPHONE rains all, I'm downloading Torrents off it now.

You guys Need to Download Russell Peter Red White and Brown, just came out on DVDrip as a Torrent. I would buy it to support him, but after what Alba did, none can be trusted. Bought Dark Angel and she decides to get knocked up, tsk tsk.
