Tell us honestly, what’s the first thing that pops into your mind when you think of Finland? For hockey fans, it’s the home nation of some of their favorite hockey players and goaltenders. For music fans, especially metalheads, it is one of “The Big Three” of metal, alongside Germany and...

Ever heard of a “cool down lap?” It’s the circuit you do of a racetrack on your bike between trying to set your best time and pulling back into the pits. Usually there’s still other bikes on track, so you can’t just crawl around the track at walking speed. You’ve...

There’s always a lot of talk among riders about helmet safety, and it is inevitable in those conversations that Snell gets referenced. If you’re speaking to modular helmets specifically, the reference is usually along the lines of “Snell doesn’t test or certify modular helmets”. But that isn’t exactly true. In...

Last month’s little ditty on on-road two-stokes was just the start. And while we love us some asphalt action, there’s no doubting that two-strokes rock just as hard off-road as they do on. These manufacturers’ persistence in making their dirt-bound ring-a-ding-dingers long after giving up on their on-road models should...

I feel a bit self-conscious as I park my Toyota Corolla in the yard outside Grant Vlahovic’s workshop. I’d originally planned to ride my bike (a Kawasaki Vulcan 900 Classic LT) out to meet him here in Langley, about an hour east of Vancouver, but the roads have been icy...
