sounds like you have Gall stones?

It looks like Lockwood may line up with a pedestrian path:

me or gokiburi?

See that path coming from the houses? Hits the crosswalk perfectly.....coulda come bootin' out of there.
Where else could he have been coming from?

If you enjoy the cow slab as I do I highly recommend the Banknote at Bathurst and King. They do an excellent Angus strip with mashed and grilled veggies for like $22. Myself and the girl go there very regularly and have never been disappointed.

So, here's the start of my new Vehicile ****list. I'm thinking it might be a fun project for a website, actually. A database of license plate numbers, car descriptions, and event descriptions. Then you could search by license plate number and find out if the same car has been involved in multiple run-ins.. and perhaps we could even have an option for the drivers to defend themselves (and then get ripped to shreds of course).

****list Vehicle #1: 505 8LN. Light blue dodge (I think) pick up. I'm making a left from Harbord onto Ossington. I shoulder check, see a pickup truck about 100' back. I signal left, and move in the center of the lane. As I approach the intersection (very much a red light) I start slowing down, and down a couple little (and I mean little) "swoops" to bleed of a little more, and quite honestly, because it's fun. :) Just as I start the little swoops I can feel/hear the truck is starting to pull into the curb lane and
I assume he's going to make a right turn. I stop and I hear a voice. I look back and the truck is straddling both lanes and the driver has the window down and is looking straight at me. I roll back a couple steps and say "what's goin on?" (in a friendly way, not a confrontational way.. kinda like "What's up?").

him: "what are you doing?"
me: "ummm.. turning left?"
him: "you shouldn't be swerving all over the road"
me: "I was just slowing down"
him: "you shouldn't be swerving all over the road" (I don't know if he repeated it exactly, but close enough)
me: "I moved this much!" (holding hands a foot apart)
him: (incoherent grumbling)
me: "Why? were you trying to pass me 25' from an intersection with a red light?"
him: (more incoherent grumbling)
me: "you know, 3 cyclists have died already this year because of this type of behaiviour"

==light turns green==

I start peddling and of course he passes me in the middle of the intersection. I point at his license plate, he flips me the bird.

*sigh* Just felt like sharing the story is all. Apparently deaths have no effect on people in a hurry!

I'm in, just list out the when and wheres.
I can get down by about 4:30-5:00

Just got an e-mail from the H.R. person at City. Mr impatient truck driver apparently got a stern lecture and a warning on his employment record. I am going to assume this actually went down and puts a serious smile on my face.

^^^^^sweet^^^^

I totally want to blaze with some electrical engineering geeks and get out the paper and pencils. I want a glove of power that will direct an electromagnetic pulse through my fingertips into the engine compartment of knobs that might be liable to cause death. Instantaneous vehicular death as all circuits are fried beyond salvage.

I mean what's wrong with these people, can't they see 'oh yea...I could kill him by accident' "ah **** it..it'l be close bit I can make it, DAMN he scratched my bumper"

Coolio!

boo yea!

can we all meet at speaker's corner and mock him?

what sucks is when you get a plate number and go to the cops or a digtal pic take it to the cops and they give ya the who cares look

man thats sounds so cool but honestly I doubt it was a stern lecture:(

keith, are you referring to the yonge st/SUV incident you had in the fall (i think)? banknote is nice. good mussels. however, whenever i go there for lunch, i get this strong urinal smell coming from somewhere...

has anyone read recent CM nastiness in Chicago or Philly?

got a link for it ?

lookin'

http://www.bikeforums.net/showthread...ht=black+truck

thanks , man that was nasty with the truck

anyone could have been killed there soooo easily.... bikers, drivers, passengers, it wouldn't have mattered. Glad to see the cops were right on top of things *dripping sarcasm*

No. Last weekend I had a bit of a run-in.....no wait....confrontation with a City truck driver. I sent an e-mail and phoned City to complain. It maybe didn't happen but I want to believe.
The urine smell is prolly from the urinal cake garnish that comes with the mussels lunch special:eek:

Saturday May 6 is FREE COMIC DAY!!!!!!

He probably did get lectured, you being a bike business owner and in light of recent events. Citytv don't want trouble, it'd look foolish considering they had people out covering the memorial rides, at least the morning one.

Speaking of empenadas, the past 5 visits to Kensington I've made Segovia has been closed. Am I just unlucky or is something bad done happen to my favourite on the go empenada?

Well it's next to Segovia now but hte same peeps

LolOl.

EXAMS = OWNED. CEEEEEEEEEEEELEBRATIon.

By the way, public transit sucks ****. I saw some guy riding up Bayview while I was stuck in gridlocked traffic and I seriously wished I was him - minus the tight pants.

You blazed without me!@?!??!!?!?!****************************************************************************************************!********************?? CS geek not good enough for you!?!111111////////oneeleven

I think a night time ride on the leslie Spit or a round about ride in the city would be cool

You wanted to be naked while riding?....oh you crazy university kids. NO I didn't blaze without you op. NEVer:D
'Grats on being free from mind crushing school.

Oh uh, wtf is going on with Jet Fuel tomorrow somnambulant. I'm totally hitting kensignton for some epanadas/patties/burritos tomorrow.

YES! I miss Critical Vacuum! :)

operator: you're hitting kensington for lunch or dinner? When I get off at 5:00 I'm gonna go for a wee ride and wind up someplace with food.. Perhaps, as I said, out in The Beach. We could meet up on campus when I get off if you like.. ?
