Your favorite Scotch? Your Favorite liquor in general?
I just discovered an Islay that has become a favourite - Finlaggan Reserve. It is smoky and peaty like any Islay, but has this incredible chocolately creaminess about it. inever thought I would describe a Scotch as creamy, let alone in a good way, but there you have it. It is an incredible value...- Copper

I too am looking forward to this release. I will probably have to get my local shop to bring some in specially, or wait until my next trip South of the border...- Copper

heard of Baroni?
I picked up a Baroni 3 piece earlier this year and am very pleased with it given the money I spent for it. It seems well constructed and the fabric has a very nice hand. My tailor was very impressed as well with it for an off-the-peg, and guessed its price point considerably higher. It isn't... -
Flight Jacket for Motorcycle use?
May I just second the admiration for your cafe racer! What year is it? I am restoring a '71 CB750 that I acquired recently. I was tempted to do a cafe racer restoration on it, but it was all so wonderfully original under the late 70's dubious 'upgrades' (fairings and backrests and...- Copper

Pipe Smoking
There are private clubs able to provide a ppe and cigar smoking environment in the Calgary area... their strict adherence to the bylaws may be a bit suspect, but they seem to be carrying on at the moment. Though it is on a hiatus at the moment (changing locations), there is a monthly pipe...- Copper

how to dress when you ride to work
Riding to work almost always means wearing full gear and changing when I hit the office; that way there is no compromise - I get all the protection of proper gear and still get to wear what I want at work. That being said, if it is a khakis and button down kind of day, you can get some...- Copper

Have you flown in a vintage aeroplane?
I got an afternoon's training in a DeHavilland Tiger Moth a couple years ago. It was not modernised at all beyond a small gauge-hole nav/comm. It was hand prop only to start and no brakes just a bronze tail skid - so grass strips only. It was the best flying experience of my life - even...- Copper
