cyclists of TM3

[joedemarco]

Hey guys,

Just wondering if we have any cyclists on the forum, and what kind of riding you are doing. I was thinking we could find a mutual place and maybe get some group rides going. I live very close to Albion Hills Conservation where there are many great trails so you Mtbers give me a shout and we'll set up a ride. I'm not much of a Mtber but I very much enjoy the trails.

I ride both road and mountain (XC) -

Road Bike: 2009 Cinelli Pro Estrada (CF frame + fork)
3T bars/stem/seatpost
Shimano Ultegra Components
Dura Ace Wheels
Garmin 500 cyclocomputer

Mtb: 2008 Specialized Epic Expert (CF triangle/alum rear triangle)
Fox RL fork and Specialized Brain Tech. rear suspension
Mix of SRAM X9 and X7 components
(FOR SALE...please someone take it, its mint condition with about 250k on it...PM me if interested.)

Hey,
I'm a member of the Caledon Cycling Club and we ride frequently (weekly?) at Albion Hills Conservation Area starting April 22. Are you a member? If not, interested in joining? I know there are one or two other TM3 members who ride with the club.. not sure how active they are on the boards though.. (you still out there, Andy?? )

i just brought my bike yesterday!

i ride a 2006 Norco Bigfoot. i ride whatever i can find. street, trails, skateparks...

[m_bisson]

I'm still rockin the '99 Norco Sasquatch. Newer parts on it though. The frame just lets me climb climb climb. I hope it never breaks or my heart will break with it.

Used to have a Norco 125 back in my dirt jumping days. Now I ride a fixed fiori for daily commutes. Maybe a TM3 team is in order for the ride for heart on the DVP.

'04 Kona Scrap here. I desperately need a new front end on my bike before I can get back into jumping, trails, urban. Now that I have dropped 70 lbs my components should have an easier time dealing with me.

I ride a plasti-dip bike

[Mr Wilson]

Have a 2011 Devinci Wilson SL (custom build) and a poor poor 2008 Trek EX8 that needs some serious love.

[loganm3]

I ride a beater...nothing fancy, just a aluminum frame with Rock Shox. I have 2 sets of rims, off road tires and a set with urban tires.

I ride mainly trails in Toronto (Sunnybrook down the Don to the waterfront, across the waterfront to high park and then wiggle back to yonge and eg) and I'm doing the Ride to Conquer Cancer in June.

I'm down for a on-road or off-road ride anytime.

Well, it there seems to be more Mtb'er than roadies, I am thinking about a group trail ride at Albion Hills in Caledon after the date of April 20th seeing that those who are students are busy until then...any other suggestions.


SIDE NOTE: does anyone have a roof rack for a Gen1 hatch the want to sell? Im desperately looking for one and dont want to drop $700 for it.

[tweak_s]

Used to ride more than I do now... actually I wouldn't even say I ride now. Went for a ride for the first time in 3 years the other week, fun stuff, I miss it. But not being a little kid anymore, I'm much more scared of getting hurt, LOL. Ride a bit of street/trials stuff. Norco Ryde 04, Gold Label Fork. (Back when it was bomb lol, old school now haha)

Look on Kijiji and Craigslist as there people selling Thule or Yakima racks.
