The City of Toronto kicked off Bike Month yesterday with its annual Group Commute. Bicycle commuters from around the city met to ride together from four start points and converged at Yonge and Bloor before descending on mass to Nathan Phillips Square.

Coming from Waterloo with nine bikes ranging in size from the diminutive Mini 125 to the enormous Family Truckster and Couchbike, our commute was surely one of the more logistically complex. Kudos to Ted for keepin’ it real and cycling all the way from Waterloo.

In Nathan Phillips Square, we had a special area set up for people to try some of the unique bikes we brought from the Bicycle Forest collection. Good times were definitely had by all.

When Drew and Nadine’s friends and family dreamt of a clever way to surprise the pair of avid cyclists on their wedding day, it wasn’t long before they settled on the couchbike.

It was an honour and a privilege to play a part in Drew and Nadine’s special day. I wish them both all the best in their future together.
