I don't think I could listen to an album called "Protools". That's wrong on several levels.

Also, great CX article from Barry Wicks (with a perfect portrait, too): https://www.velonews.com/article/8392...ar-barry-wicks

15% off everything on PBK. Use CANRBR to get the extra 5%.

They have been around for awhile. They are loud and frame flex makes the belt skip. Check out Spot Brand for other belt driven bikes.

Hey guys, I could use some help!

I'm leaving on a break-in tour on my new surly on Wednesday and riding to the cottage for thanksgiving. Problem is my shop in St. Catharines did not inform me the rack I ordered was on backorder! So now I am scrambling to find a touring capable rack.

I know the last time I was at Urbane they had an Old man mountain rack that would work, but I would prefer a Tubus Cargo or something along those lines and it needs to fit a 26" wheeled bike. Any other shop recommendations?

I've been looking online but not many shops list racks, let alone which ones they carry.
I'm in Oakville for the weekend so going to Toronto is no problem, I just need to find one.
Thanks so much!

Downtown traffic was friggin' nuts. Pedestrians all over the place... in one sense it was kind of nice as it was sort of a critical mass for pedestrians, but the drivers got more and more 'rangy as it went on. What was nice was if someone tried a left turn anywhere, you had free lanes for a couple blocks ahead of them.

And a stolen bike in Toronto mentioned in the main thread. https://www.bikeforums.net/singlespeed-fixed-gear/473413-stolen-bike-toronto.html
