The summer that got away...
Where did it go? Most of it on the highway " with more 10-hour trips to Montreal, Toronto , and Ottawa than I care to remember. Some of it disappeared in the strange fog that came with a failed attempt to switch away from the medication I’ve been on for the past 10 years. A good chunk...

The "Grey Bike" Goes On The Block...**SOLD!**
Fran’s “Grey Bike” was the inspiration for my return to the racetrack and gave me a bar to reach for when I was putting together The Original Loud Bike. I spent my fiirst two years chasing him around Mosport and can bear witness to the impressive (low-mid-70s) horsepower and exemplary...
