Well, I know you can get away with it on Paris-Ancaster. I'd say the longer point-to-point races like that are the most likely as you wouldn't see as many marshalls on course and there are a lot of other riders streaming by for hours on end.

At the risk of upping the price, what do you guys think? https://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?...TODAY.m238.lVI
It looks like more bike than I really needed but when I'm looking at dropping $350+ on an IRO frame...

That fork is like $200+ new, so $275 for the whole deal doesn't seem to bad. I'm not a big Aquila fan, but whatevs. I don't know if I'd want to ride something so bling around the city though, although it seems stupid to vote for the IRO plan instead since technically it'll cost more.
Hmm, this will require further study... *shuffles off to the laboratory*

Bikes: too many too list
but I did Elliot Lake with it last year. It was an 8 hour and Mitch did an extra lap I think.
It's not the speed it's the experience there young-uns. Beware 40+ year old racers...they will kick your ass!

It's like watching a time capsule get cracked open when you guys start talking about the music you like.

I was at Patty King this morning (spicy beef patty avec coco bread) and "Total Eclipse of the Heart" came on ... which then of course got stuck in my head and then I found myself sprinting down Spadina to "AND I NEED YOU MORE, THAN EVER!" ... which was odd/motivating/even odder to say the least. It was the skate video effect gone horribly wrong.

Do any of you photographer types know where any good deals on a Canon G7 (new or used) can be had?
