The Scirocco is still a no go unfortunately... I am in need for a
suspension/shocks for the A4. It bounces like an old Chevy right now. We'll
see if I can get shocks FAST in Canada. Any outlet near or around Toronto
for Bilsteins?

Do we need helmets?

First thing that comes to my mind if I hear "Niagara" is Icewine! Any
tasting/buying possible?
