Motorcycle Rider Training
One of the most enjoyable motorcycling activities of my summer is teaching motorcycle rider training. The opportunity to share some of what I've learned with new riders is something I value, both for the enjoyment and for what I learn as well. Weekends I'm not racing, I'm usually trotting around a parking lot, guiding new riders through their early motorcycling experiences, and having a fabulous time sharing their excitement.

A fabulous fundraising motorcycle ride for a wonderful grass roots collective organization of women helping women, called the Toronto Rape Crisis Centre / Multicultural Women Against Rape. Now in it's sixth year, the WROAR Ride is an event near and dear to my heart, that I'm privileged to help organize with a group of great women motorcyclists. See photos of the 2010 WROAR Ride

Racing Season 2010
June 2010:
Life is interfering with racing this year! Both my 'old' vintage racebike, the Honda NS250F and the 'new' racebike, the Kawasaki ZXR250 are still in need of parts and work... although the NS needs less than the ZXR, so it may be my racebike (again) this year. The time and patience required to source vintage parts is a huge challenge; while for some racers may induce a zen-like state of calm, for me it simply challenges what little patience I posses. I'll spare you my grumbling and just summarize by saying 'it's a learning process' and leave it at that for now.

Winter 2009-2010
Some motorheads love winter, the snowmobiling crowd for example. Unfortunately they are the only motorheads with a shorter season than motorcyclists, in this part of Canada anyway. Since I haven't had a chance to go snowmobiling, I've had to amuse myself with power tools and motorcycle shows this past winter: READ MORE
