    I have decided to Hang it up

    I know this is sudden but I have been doing alot of thinking.

    With the baby on the way, my "issues" with the Ducati, my other time commitments and my possible upcoming deployment I can not justify racing anymore.

    It was a short but fun run. Maybe in the future I will return to it.

    Good luck to everyone. I am gonna miss it.

    Re: I have decided to Hang it up

    My joke from last year. Sophia Playlord= April Fools Day

    I used to get my oil in bulk from Lacombe Waste Services. They have a contract to re-cycle used engine oil from most large garages and car dealerships in the Ottawa/Hull area.

    They only charge me $2.50 for 10 liters. The old oil they collect from MarkMotors is all synthetic in case you prefer it.
    Oh sure..it is used and mixed up a bunch but at those rates I just change my oil after I come back from even a short ride. (Well almost, every 500kms or 2 tank fulls of gas)
    I have set up a 20 liter drum inside my storage shed with a small hose and a valve. It looks like a mini gas station actually. It even works on gravity.
    When I have finished a ride all I do is use the aircraft sourced quick disconnect on the sump and drain it. I also have a second drum in the shed to
    re re-cycle the used oil. Lacombe takes it back from me for free so I get to do my part for the enviroment as well. I only change the oil filter in the spring.

    If you are interested I can get you the part # for the drain that I use on the sump as it comes in a variety of sizes and angles. Mine is offset 90 degrees.
    PM me and I'll send you a photo of th setup as well. The woman at Lacombe Waste Services you need to speak to about this program is Sofia Playlord.
