Your good for about 3 races at M3. High cats ( M2, M1, S1/2 etc..), may require a UCI permit.

I like your front wheel, Sam. You and your friend ever do group rides?

The only cat u need a UCI is M1 or Sen 1. Also if you want to do the UCI races at Centennial. You can race pretty much the whole season in M3 on a citizen permit. There is a cheaper Cross' only UCI license available this year. If you only want to do a couple of events you can get a 1day at most races (though not all so check with the organizer) You can only buy a maximum of 3 1day licenses.

Sweet! I'm racing this year, even though there isn't a disabled division.

I made small video about our trip:

We were ride from 10AM to exactly 9:30 PM, but we did a long stops just to make a pictures and videos. I sold my fixed gear to build new one and I rode my Bianchi with speeds, but my friend was on fixed gear all the time and he is okay.

IF you don't have iPhone with GPS, don't even think about go there, because otherwise you'll lost your path, too many forking ways.

nice vid. looks like it should be a good adventure.
We were thinking of leaving pretty early, since we're out in Scarborough, and I'm the only non-geared person, haha, but should be okay.
Think we were gonna try and ride back to, or at least spend the night there, but we havent planned anything yet.

What's up with the OCA not having any cross races up on the schedule? Also, need to buy an citz. lic.

What quality? I bought a lot of mine at MEC. MEC has a toolbox of bike tools that seemed like a pretty good deal. park tools is probably the best, or one of the best, but they aren't cheap.

Well that's contrary to what the OCA told me...at least when as it applies to road racing.

Diggity damn. I used to have those same wheels. I wouldn't dare run a brake on them for fear of ruining the finish. VERY nice bike, nonetheless!
