Sometimes...
I like to brake as hard as possible in a isolated forest backroad to feel the ABS kicking it. MAHSAGE, as the British would say it; kinda, sorta.
When I was practically this, I suddenly saw a rabbit, and it lived due to my psychic abilities. Proving further, that I am indeed, a clairvoyant being. |

I misspelled practicing. lol
But yeah, I saw two of them, three fawns, and a frog (I think I ran over that) yesterday during my 150 mile run on Leeds Manor Road. Did I tell you about that? |

There are many blind corners, LONG tunnel like sweepers, but the "two-lane road" fits more like 1 and 3/4 of a car, so you have to watch out for oncoming cars. During 7-8PM, I encounted ZERO cars, so sometimes I forgot it was a two-lane road, since there are no markings. That general area is pretty twisty, since it's in Markham. A lot of vineyards there, and some small towns along the way. I actually found the Naked Mountain Vineyard (their Riesling is delicious). There's also a WEIGHING station on the way there. I was going to weigh my car on the way back, but I had to get home before it got pitch black. In the morning, it's pretty breathtaking, but at night, there is absolutely zero light. I left at 6:00PM, ran into traffic getting there, but once I was there, I was unencumbered. I arrived back home at around 10:00PM. |

Funny thing is when I went for a test drive the salesman goes I'll show you the brakes and pins it from about 60mph.
He looks at me as if I should be impressed and I'm like thanks...tool
