I'm down for a coffee or whatever works. What part of the park should we meet at? The lucky penny cafe might work?

Hi Everyone,

At the meet up we discussed biking in the winter and studded tires. I think I said I'd post a link to remind everyone of the discussion: http://www.icebike.org/the-ultimate-gui ... ded-tires/

In a nutshell studded tires would appear to be worth it only if you bike a lot in snowy/icy conditions.

I get snow rarely enough that it's easier to just not bike in it.

Hi all, it is almost a year ago and I would like to know if people are interested to meet-up again in Toronto.
I am able to join one of these days in June: 10, 11, 17 or 18.

If others are can let know if they are interested to meet again and what their preferred day would be, we can set the exact date + time + location
(trinity Bellwoods Park like last time would be fine for me).

I changed the subject to reflect the correct date of this years meeting: tomorrow!
If anybody is interested, tomorrow (June 16) at 11:00 AM in the centre of Toronto.

Bluenote, sldsly, myself and perhaps others from last year (who I just emailed) will be there. If you're interested to join as well, please PM me for the exact location.

hope to meet more ERE'ers!

Seeing if there is any interest in a new meetup in Toronto next weekend (Saturday 22 or Sunday 23 September).

I have emailed participants of last year, but I have seen also some new names from Toronto, so perhaps there are new people interested to join. If so, please post here and we'll figure out where and day/time that fit most people.

How did it go? What did you talk about? I'm "up the road" in Barrie and feel a connection to Toronto - certainly not a LCOL area (real estate wise).
