The online store is now open for business by clicking here. Wear your club colours proudly this coming season.
As well, it’s time to start planning your schedule by registering for some of our seasonal events, including taking part in Bike for Brain Health (May 31), TNTO in June and Cylon, set for the August long weekend, this time in St. Catharines. Our trips are filling up quickly, don't delay. All details below.

New this year, TBN BFBH Fundraising Team
TBN has a fundraising team, co-captained by Kathy Cunningham (TBN Comms) and Allan Friedman (TBN Member). Baycrest and Brain Health are important causes for us personally, so we will be raising funds in support.
We'll be riding on May 31 in our new 2026 TBN Club Jerseys. If you would like to join our team and fundraise (or self-pay) your minimum $195 (per rider) for Brain Health and ride with us, we would love to have you join our team. If you are already signed up to ride Bike for Brain Health, and want to be added to the TBN team, please email info@tbn.ca. If you join our fundraising team, you will be entitled to a discount on your new TBN short-sleeved jersey (until March 4), and get to ride the DVP with our team in style! |
