Out on the road, in the coffee shop post-ride, or in the evening at a pub night – our social side shines. Road riding is our primary focus but we certainly do everything we can to have a good time along the way! We’re all busy folks and as such our rides rarely last more than a couple of hours. And we always try to fit in a stop at a local coffee shop before we go our separate ways. Although there are some of us who like to ride hard and fast, and others who take it a bit more leisurely, we have a strict no-drop policy. No one gets left behind on our rides. Whether you’re a first time rider, or a seasoned veteran we’d love to have you ride with us.
Our goal is simple – have fun riding our bikes while improving our fitness and creating a community of riders in Etobicoke.
We ride all year round as long as the roads are safe for riding.
We’re not a race team although we’re always up for a challenge – within the group or while participating in regional charity rides.
We have regular early morning rides through the week starting at 5:40am and returning by 7am; and we have longer scheduled weekend rides.
Our ride schedule for 2013 has not been finalized yet. Be sure to sign up for the mailing list to ensure you’re kept abreast of the latest club news.

Hi. I met one of your members in our spin class and he invited me to your pub night. But as a supporter of Mayor Ford, will I have eggs and tomatoes thrown at me? I don’t ride in Toronto- I ride the Halton Hills 3 times a week. But I might like to join your early morning ride. But don’t wait for me…. I’ll be slower than you mean cycling machines!

Hey Folks,
Just wanted to welcome you guys (as a united group) to cycling in Etobicoke. I met Steve today (great guy) and he told me about your group/club. Oxygen Bike Co will be hosting group rides for both mountain and roadies as soon as the weather warms up. We’re a new shop so you may have been in yet, but we’re on the Lake Shore at 38th street, about 2 minutes west of Vitess. I’ll touch base with Julian at Vitess and see if we can organize a friendly group ride….Opus and Vitess neck and neck…I can see it now!

I had the pleasure of meeting Chris and 4 other riders on Sunday morning and let me tell you it was one of the best riding experiences in a very long time. They all made me feel comfortable and really look forward to riding with the group again.
BTW my legs are killing me and well worth it!
Cheers
