Unsure of your level section?
Well, for starters, it's the name of one of our newest Education pages on TBN.CA - check it out here.
One of our leaders, Dennis Szilvasy had an idea. Let's have a fitter come to the start of a ride and give people what you might call a "micro" bike-fit. Not a mini one which might take 1 hour, or a full one, which can take as long as 4 hours, but an opportunity to express areas of concern where the fitter can eyeball the person on their bike and perhaps make some tweaks to see if things feel any better on this ride.
Allan Friedman, a relatively new member to TBN with experience connecting fitters to various bike clubs he was involved with in New York City, knew this idea had been successful in other contexts and started working on this project with Dennis and others on the board of TBN.
Dennis will be leading a first such ride , but first we thought it might be a good idea to invite several bike fitters to share their philosophies of fitting (there are many different approaches to bike fit), initially in the form of a panel conversation on Zoom.
You will receive the Zoom Meeting link via email when you register, and on event reminder emails. Plan to sign in to the Zoom Meeting a few minutes before the workshop begins. We will be recording this and then adding a link to the recording on the bike fit resource page.

April Pub Quiz
You are invited to attend the monthly trivia night at Arisu Authentic Korean and Japanese Restaurant on Tuesday, April 28. Please register before Monday, April 27 at 6 pm.
Unfortunately, the Prenup Pub has closed down to make way for apartments. Fortunately, we have been able to move the quiz to a great Korean and Japanese restaurant. Arisu has a huge menu with an incredible variety of Japanese/Korean food including Korean BBQ, sushi, and a number of vegan/vegetarian options. It also has an extensive drink list featuring a good selection of wine, spirits, sake and soju. It has a good choice of bottled beers and six craft and Japanese beers on tap, which are available at the 1980s price of $5.99 a pint. View the full menu here.
Arisu also has a wonderful staff and a nice patio, which we may be able to use in the warmer months.
The schedule for the evening is as follows:
This will be an unusual pub quiz in that the participants will choose the categories before the quiz begins. Virtually any category is possible, including history, geography, 80s music, Soviet fashion, marine biology, supramolecular chemistry, and even cycling. The teams or four or five will brainstorm possible categories, and we all vote to determine the five most popular topics. Then, since each team will be responsible for one round of questions, they will work together to compose 8-10 questions in their assigned category. Phones are permitted only during this phase and during the break.
Arisu is conveniently located at 584 Bloor Street West on the corner of Bloor and Markham Street. It's a 30-second walk from Bathurst subway station if you use the Markham Street entrance. There is a large parking lot behind the restaurant.
View the map here.
Today we will go in the OPPOSITE DIRECTION to add some variety into our ride. Please ensure you have downloaded the new reverse version of the route below.
This is a lovely route(s) courtesy of our friends in the Country Cruise complete with a lunch spot at Orono Park complete with facilities. You can either grab a sandwich from the bakery or convenience stores in Orono or bring your lunch and eat at the picnic tables in the park. For those who prefer a later lunch stop, Tyrone Mills on the return route opens at 11:00 am.
