Reminders
Zwift through the winter
As the weather turns colder, look for more Zwift Meetup events on the TBN calendar. Zwift "Intro" Meetups are for new riders on the virtual platform, on easy, relatively flat routes, while "Exploring" Meetups are longer and more challenging. We'll ride in virtual London, New York, Paris, Innsbruck and a host of other places, and chat as we go using the Discord app. You'll need a bike and a smart trainer -- one that connects to your computer or smartphone to simulate a route.
This is the closest you can get to a real-world ride with friends, and you don't even have to leave home.
If you are interested in Zwift rides, either as a participant or as a volunteer virtual ride leader, please email virtualrides@tbn.ca with your preferences for day, time, distance and duration, and whether you are willing to host an event.
Join TBNers for virtual city walks
Join your TBN friends for virtual walks in Toronto and beyond, where we use Google streetview to explore neighbourhoods and chat on Zoom about key sights. Our Zoom conferences start at around 10:10 am on Sundays. Details on the TBN website.
Update your TBN Profile
Please make sure your TBN club profile is up to date so we can get in touch with you. Is your email address still valid? What about your emergency contact? Do you want to upload a picture, so we know what you look like? What rides interest you? Are you willing to volunteer? TBN is a volunteer-run club and we're always looking for more people who can help.
To update your profile, first log into the TBN website, then click on your name and click on Edit Profile. When you are done, press Save to store your changes.
Next year's membership is free for paid-up members
We lost most of our 2020 riding season because of COVID19, so as a big thank you for bearing with us, TBN will automatically extend membership by 365 days for all members in good standing (those who have paid their dues in full). You lost your 2020 season with TBN, so we’re giving you another one.
The background: TBN was unable to operate at all from March through July, and our schedule has been limited since August. And with a second wave underway, we know we won't be offering our normal slate of winter activities.
We’ll take another look at membership dues as we continue through these challenging times and will do our utmost to continue to offer great value to all our members.
If you have questions or comments about membership, please email us at membership@tbn.ca or experience@tbn.ca.
