fixedude... I'm on JET... How about you? I'm getting some experience before going to teacher's college, hopefully at u of t. at which point I will be able to ride the khs flite 100 I have stored at my parents' house... Have you checked out any keirin while you're here? I just found out that there's a keirin track in town here, and i'm planning on checking it out soon... just haven't really had a chance since I found out about it.

For some reason japanese beers remind me of beer that is on the way back out... they're more bitter? maybe? Although it's mostly draught that I'm thinking of, I guess. Bottled and can beer here isn't bad... definitely if you compare it to blue, and you avoid happoshu/fake beer. Although if you have any recommendations for any particular J-microbrew beers, I'd be into hearing.

And I definitely agree with cavit8 about maudite. It was definitely the worst beer ever. if you hold it up to light, you can't even see through it.

sorry for the lack of toronto based content...
