that's a kick in the pants. Get well!
Just got back from a mountain bike ride in the Don. What a difference a couple of weeks makes! It's all dry and fun now. Also much busier

Wtf happened?
The viva bus driver kicked me off and I was way not sober enough to ride high speed up yonge st. and beat the bus for 10 kms. But that's what happened and then I gave him the finger.

Shiz, you were right about the skid part of the Ontario Highway Traffic Act
Brakes on bicycle
(3) No person shall ride a bicycle on a highway unless it is equipped with at least one brake system acting on the rear wheel that will enable the rider to make the braked wheel skid on dry, level and clean pavement. R.S.O. 1990, c. H.8, s. 64 (3).

yes.. otherwise known as the No-bell Prize. 
Darkmother got absolutely owned by that cop! I think it was several hundred dollars worth of fines.
