And for once, something is cheaper in Canada than in the US??? $100 cheaper at Chapters/Indigo v. Amazon.

Oh, and I also bought myself a new alcantara-covered steering wheel
And some alcantara seat inserts to match

Got a late arrival in the form of 'Closer to the Edge' DVD, the 3D story of the 2010 Isle of Man TT - some awesome footage and insane petrolhedonism - even in 2D looks spectacular. Shows the unique appeal of Road Races.

New toy from Santa. 2005 BMW Boxer Cup Replika. Low miles. A little underpowered at 98 HP, but bulletproof engine. This was the street version of the BMW spec race series bike.
