We groom the Red Pine and Farmer Lake trails and there is no charge for users. If you or someone you know enjoys these trails please show your support by buying a Trail Supporter tag that you can proudly display hanging from your seat rail. Better still, buy several and give them to …

A while ago Liisa's Battaglin was voted "Super Nice" on the GCN Show. I think you can understand why.

Quite a step backwards, and a massive overreach into municipal affairs.

Not only is the provincial government going to rip out newly constructed cycling lanes in Toronto (and not support the construction of any new ones throughout the entire Province), it is going to cost taxpayers $48 million dollars to remove just the ones in Toronto. To add insult to injury ... literally ... if a cyclist or pedestrian is injured or worse, using those roads after the lanes have been removed, they are not allowed to sue the …

Global Fat Bike Day - Dec 07. We had our challenges. Its mostly the weather, but as a true Fat Bikers (as everyone there was) we got through it to celebrate with a great visit to OUTSPOKEN brewery that was a well deserved beverage afterwards.

A good buddy and I went to a training camp in Spain several years ago. It was February, but you would never know it. (except at the top of the mountains, where the weather was dreadful !) We times it so that a major stage race was going on at the same time. As it transpired, we essentially shadowed the race every day on our bikes. If the peloton went left, we went right, intersecting their zigzag route, several times a day. All the big boys …

The snow is collapsing the pine trees up in the Red Pine system and will continue to push those trees down as it keeps accumulating. We managed to make our Fat Bike trail safely around this area. It will take a gargantuan effort to clean up this mess and I suspect the ski trail won’t open there this year.

Have you ever wondered how a custom frame is made ? (I mean a 'custom' frame, which in modern materials IE Carbon fibre, are rarely custom, due to high volume manufacturing techniques. A custom frame now, means only a custom paint scheme, nothing more.) That is the beauty of modern steel, or titanium bikes. 'Custom' means tailor made, just like a special dress, or suit...hand made, to fit you perfectly and no one else. If you need a slightly …

Hard to believe this was taken just a couple weeks ago. Going to try studded tires for the first time this year (as soon as I get the chance to swap them in). Anything I should be thinking about?

This is where my bikes go for the winter. The Steadyrack is especially good for the GT which is getting too heavy for me.

As we get closer to Christmas, here is a little poem (based on another of a similar, but different name): T'was the Bike Before Christmas By [email protected] (AKA David Ellis) T'was the night before Christmas, when all through the house not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse. The bikes were all hung in the basement with care All stored for the winter, with nobody there The children were finally all snug and asleep, It's …

Cycling's most watched Podcast, the GCN Show (Global Cycling Network) aired last night and in the initial summary of that episode's contents, started with the "trouble in Canada". Most of the show was dedicated to how cycling lanes save lives and reduce automobile congestion, then they touched on Ontario's ban of new cycling lanes and the removal of existing ones and the huge cost to the taxpayer to remove existing ones. Considering this show …

More "Fancy Frame Finishes" Does your bike follow any of these traditional schemes ?

More concerning the finishes on bicycles. These are different. It isn't the frame finish here, but the components that are to be the centre of attention. Cycling has a long history of using 21 carat gold plating, usually on components, but occasionally they plate the frame. Here are two examples. The first is a Colnago Arabesque. The very ornate lugs were the main feature of this frame, so adorning the frame with equally 'bling' components has …
