aaaaahhh yes GrassHopper http://www.hpvelotechnik.com/produkte/index_e.html now this is sweet!
Thanks Steeker! Yeah, it's a great place to ride. I was reminiscing about it while taking the Greyhound along the 401 over the holidays. We'll definitely get a cyclist weekend happening out there in June or thereabouts...I'll keep you informed!
Cheers,
Vic
I really liked the pictures , I remember alot of the places in your pic's from my trip out there..( sorry for the late reply (:-p)
Piegons breed dieseases that kill people...you should get rid of Pigeons!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You can see the whole story here. basically, the eggs ended up hatching. One chick died very soon (I never saw it alive) and the other was alive for quite a while and kept growing, but I eventually found it dead too.
how long were the eggs there
That will be quite the contraption!! Kind of like having your bottom half enclosed in a kayak. Can't wait to see it on the streets somewhere.
Wow, the photos of the mass on the bridge are insipring! That looked like a fun ride.
Hello:
I have a Streetmachine and I looking for a lights like yours. Can you tell me where can I get it and which model is and if works fine?
Thanks.
Sorry for my english, I'm spanish.
Hey Dave,
Hmmm...let's see...they played "Police and Thieves" (I think originally by Junior Mervin, covered by The Clash), "Your Generation" by Generation-X, "Alternative Ulster" by Stiff little Fingers... hmm... I can't remember what else. I basically caught the end of their set, so maybe only about 5 or 6 songs in total.
I have plenty of pho-tos around on other parts of my gallery. :)
...And don't say you're phophotophobic.
Good photos, Vic. It looks like what I think of as a "social paradise" when I'm in one of my better moods.
What were the oldies were the punk band playing? And why no pho photos?
Cheers,
Dave.
HELP!!! everytime a pigeon lays eggs on my dads varanda he kicks them off which is so cruel so i managed to save one today... ive never cared for an egg before so what the hell do i do?
Hi. This is the girl who took in an abandoned egg. That one died, because my box wasn't good.
The parents laid two more though and they broke one.
The other one is hatching today on the 16th day.
I was worried since someone else told me that theirs hatched on the 13th day.
I see yellow fur sticking out through the hole it has made in the shell.
I read that chicken chicks take 4-12 hours once the process begins.
I hope this one makes it.
I don't want a mess on my balcony.
nice pictures and nice pic's on the links,, I like the heat bugs and the trikes
Looking at the documents on the City's page, it seems that a roundabout and/or ring-road was considered at some point, but never made it to the short list of options.
A Roundabout might work well for traffic flow, but maybe they didn't feel it addressed some of the other concerns that relate to creating a "downtown" area there. If it was only about traffic flow, then leaving it in its current configuration would probably be best.

This seems like the perfect spot for a roundabout. If anyone's spent any time driving in Europe they'd know how efficient they are. Cars get through it quickly, but still at a slow speed. They're generally still walkable, although busier ones require lights too.
The only problem is I don't think anyone would want to have the one roundabout in Toronto located in their neighbourhood. It woudn't be a problem when people have gotten used to them, but I wouldn't want someone from the other side of the city trying to navigate it for the first time...
i have had two pigeon eggs on my balcony for a month, i heard it only takes 15 for them to hatch. the mother is still sitting on them, would you say the eggs have died?
Dude! Don't do that sh*t. Yo, you can get zapped. Trust me, I know all about getting zapped.
Thanks guys. Yeah, I was happy with those pics. Pretty simple to do with a digital...just keep taking pictures and you're bound to catch some!
It seemed like the worst part of the storm hit north of where I am (Dundas/Islington), so it doesn't surprise me that you didn't see much in the Beach.
COOL !! GREAT pictures Vic, we were told that 100+ K winds were going to hit the Beach with major lighting but we had some small gusts of wind that was it :(
Great catch. Cloud to cloud and cloud to ground lightning in the same pic. -ds
I read your article and I just had a pigeon on my front porch, I went on vacation and came back and it was in my planter.It sits all day and night and doesn't move, until the other day I gave it birdseed and it flew away, my 16 year old daughter yell at me, cuz she thought it wouldnt' come back , but it did.Now it's just sitting on the 2 eggs we notice when the bird flew away that night. It think it takes about 14 or 16 days before hatch but don't know. Do you know ?? This bird sits in looks in my living room window all day long and I thought it was dead cuz it never moves... This is my 1st with pigeons... thanks...How is your doing??
I read to stop turning the egg at 15 days so the egg doesn't break open prematurely.
