Yeah, man, Ottawa. To get to which you have to drive through the Prairie, the long way (you know, 1000 miles, no corners, repeat a couple of times?) Much better to come to Calgary - almost all of which can be done on mountain roads.

But I'd also do crazy (or worse, mind-numbing) things for a crazy Canadian chick. I can totally understand that one. In fact, almost all of the best parts of my life have been in the company of one crazy Canadian chick or another. Of course, I have a leg up on you there - being Canadian and all, it's just a priori more likely for me to be in said company.

Oh, and on topic for a change, s/to make sure/because/ s/n't degraded// on the helmet. Yeah, I know that's what you meant.
