E-Bike notice: Brock has a strict no e-bikes in buildings policy, but the Cyclon committee has devised a back-up plan to accommodate e-bikes (if there is sufficient demand). Please contact cyclon@tbn.ca if you are planning to bring an e-bike. Note the Niagara region is relatively flat, so e-bikes may not be as necessary as they were in the Peterborough area last year. Please contact cyclon@tbn.ca if you are bringing your e-bike.
