Just got home from 2 1/2 hours in the Don. Conditions are superb and we only saw 3 other riders the entire time. Ridge twice...P.A, River Run and Lower Don both ways. Good times! |

Not that many messengers use 2 ways anymore but when we did the correct on-air term for repeat would be 10-9.

Time is so compressed for me at this time of year ... I literally go from "cross day" to two days of "cross photos" to "is it cross day again yet?" ... and that's it.

In Toronto for a few weeks--time to do my part to bloat this thread. I'm used to being able to get a good $1.50 long espresso in Montreal. Not so in TO. I liked the stuff at Manic, but it's a 15 minute ride and not that cheap.

Lather, Rinse, ... Repeat

A subtle reminder
http://cavit8.clawz.com/images/martini2.jpg And I might add the new shaker is working famously, at least if the sensation in my brainstem is any indication. |
|
out of curiosity what do bike messengers use if its not a 2way radio? cell phone and just get text messages?
|
PTT MiKE or BB would be my guesses.
|
/\ if that was a response to me, im going to have to ask for it in stupid talk, so i can understand :D
|
PTT Mike = push to talk mike. Push to talk can be used on two way radios but has been adapted to cell phone networks as well. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Push_to_talk
BB: http://cavit8.clawz.com/images/bb.jpg |
aaaahhhh
thanks |
/\ jiet. BB == Balkc Burry.

You could get one at taphong in Chinatown but I'd recommend SasMart in Kengsinton market just north of the park on Augusta.
1.50 espresso isn't likely to be had, one of the least expensive quality places is I Deal coffee's is $2.00 or so. What part of town are you in? We might be able to suggest something closer to you. |

i always found that sasmart place to be overly pricey - certainly doesn't look it from the outside. the faema store at davenport and ossington usually has good deals on the aluminum ones (they had a box of the 3 cup ones there a while ago for something like 6 bucks each...); i got a 6 cup for $18 - and you can get an espresso with all the old italian men in their adjoining cafe...
And that Sicilian cafe ar Montrose and College has some cheap espressos as well. |

Also, re coffee stuff: the Green Beanery at Bathurst/Bloor has got some terrible customer service. No business from me. I've heard they've sold refurb stuff as new from a friend "in the industry". Just a warning. Nobody's mentioned them yet, but since I was reminded when I saw Honest Ed's mentioned. |
Propane refill on your bike? That's pretty hardcore

seems like i got a bit of a discussion going... but really, i'm sure some of you will be in the audience and i know what tough critics we all are... so it sounds like using a cell would be kosher, and that makes the script details a bit easier. anyone with a mess bag though? i know i could use my backpack, but i think my character would go for the faster option. OMG filming starts next week! |
