as an aside: this thread has the most interesting/relevant discussions for torontonians... but how come it's not in the regional forum? that way us folks with freewheels wouldn't be crashing the party!

Ever since the move, I think I've only consulted the other threads once, and that was to find specific info about MACK hubs. Speaking of which, does any store in the city sell them, or does anyone have a pair of these hubs? They also go by the name 'Gromada' apparently, out of Poland.
I lust for them so.

Clear blue skies, clear head, just sitting and drinking a cup of darkness. Going to do some wheel work. Anyone who is alive and wants to do coffee/hair of the dog ride later let me know.

Happy New Year all!
We had "Wild Game Day" here yesterday as the ladies parentals came down with venison and caribou! Spent the day watching them prep the meat with Ulu's - the meat came from outside Pangnirtung, Nunavut as my girlfriends mom does research with the Inuit there. Super cool... and one of the best meals I've ever eaten. Now my leftovers consist of caribou stew, caribou roast and venison stroganoff. Ridiculous.
I'm in. Just catching up on some email and heading out before the wind is supposed to pick up - gusting to 50. Gimme a ring if you wanna meet up: 647.295.243.
