Last time my dad was in town, he asked me to show him where something was on his map of the city. I started looking on it and saw the DVP south of Bloor as a dotted line with the word 'proposed' beside it. Agincourt didn't exist, and there was precious little else north of the 401. The date on the map was 1958. Oddly enough, for what he wanted, it was just fine.

Well, we'll see... I'm sure once Igor makes bails (he apparently hadn't last night! hahaha!) I'm sure he'll be back at it... The story that I got was that his shop is a fire hazard and that's why they were removing all the bikes, we all know why they really were, but that's the official word. I posted up a couple of pics this morning here

I wonder how long it will take for those bikes to be on the toronto police ebay site... Is it immoral to buy it from there?

A lot of Uncle Jacob's bikes are from the auction site so I guess it is as moral as anything else.

Someone said the CETMAracks are expensive to ship? Im looking at them for my beater... i found out the hard way i cant put beer, and pizza in my tiny bag, and was looking for a rack (would also reduce the chance of me wanting to buy my parents car off them, if i never have to use it... diesel is expensive tooo). So at some point in the future i want to put an order in for one, and was wondering if anyone else was interested in them and willing to split the shipping with me. Just putting it out there, still saving the pennies.
Im headed to NY soon, so i might be able to save on shipping
