This Critical Mass was organised when social media began talking about these 6 people:
- On September 14, a pedestrian was killed by a driver near Hale and Hamilton.
- Two days later, a cyclist was sent to hospital with life-threatening injuries by the driver of a utility truck, on a bike lane.
- On September 30 a cyclist was killed by a driver in Thames centre—sunny, middle of the day, not rush hour or anything.
- More collisions have been reported on October 6 (London Police Service cruiser involved in that one, on Hamilton Road again), October 8 and 12, with the latest there in St Thomas—all affecting cyclists and pedestrians.

A white bike and a pair of white shoes will be placed at City Hall.

For those of you going: Be there for 2:30. Wear layers, don't forget your helmet, lights, and water. Ride safe.

We hope the new school year is off to a grand start for everyone. Weather is cooling down. End of the season is a great time to Then it'll be ready to ride with just a little air added to the tires. Off season is also a really good time to do restorations. ;)

Tomorrow's intake has been pushed back until next week. We apologize for the inconvenience but we don't have the space we did. We really appreciate everyone's patience with us this year.

It is almost Fall. School starts in just over a week. The Equinox is less than a month away - which means the sun won't be quite as deadly. It also means the days are getting shorter and dawn is coming later, and so are we. Coming in later to open the shop, that is. We'll be opening at 8am, not 7, and, for now, closing time stays the same. It'll move to 5 o'clock Mon-Sat around the Equinox most likely. We will be closed Labour Day Monday.

Do you have any last minute cycling plans? Are your kids' bikes ready to be ridden to school? Do they have locks? Their helmets still fit? They are wearing helmets, right? Because some day, they want to be grown and move out. (and you'll want them to move out lol) Have a wonderful end of season!

We got to meet the lovely people at McCormick Care Group today at their facility in Byron. Beautiful home for those needing long term care, dementia care, and adult day programs. We came to fix their trikes.
