Hi all, I live in the Beach area of Toronto and am looking to either join a team based in this area or find "locals" to go on trianing rides with. I participated in the '08 event and enjoyed it on many levels; very inspirational. Look forward to hearing from potential riding partners.
I live in Riverdale and am doing the ride for the first time next year. I ride (train) with the Beaches Cycling Club, which is also affliated with the Darkhorse Flyers Club. I am a new member but have gone on several rides with both of them. The advantage of two affliated clubs is there are usually several organized rides (3 - 5) in the season and they welcome people at all levels.
If you are not a joiner of clubs, we might start doing some riding together in the Spring, depending on our schedules etc. (but I will also be riding with the clubs).
If you are interested, the BCC has a good webpage at beachescycling.com. The president, Dan Yang, can be reached at dan@beachescycling.com. Takea look at the web page, it is interesting.
