- Description: On 21 July 1928, departing from Halifax, Oates dipped the rear wheel of his 497 cc twin-port Ariel - named "Toby" - in the Atlantic Ocean and set off westward, accompanied by a Sturgess sidecar built in Hamilton, Ontario. In the absence of roads across much of the country, he rode for approximately 1,450 km (900 miles) along railway sleepers between Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, and Whitemouth, Manitoba, lifting the outfit off the tracks each time a train approached. He reached Vancouver on 22 September 1928 - 21 riding days after departure - where the mayor met him and he dipped Toby's wheel in the Pacific Ocean: the first rubber-tyred vehicle to cross Canada coast to coast. In 1930 he set a world record for continuous outboard motorboat operation. In September 1932 he rode from Montreal to Churchill, Manitoba, on Hudson Bay - the first person to reach the Bay on rubber tyres. He founded the British Empire Motor Club in Toronto in 1928, served as a founder of dispatch rider training in World War II, and was inducted into the Canadian Motorcycle Hall of Fame in 2009
