I am, however, very encouraged to hear that you've returned to your bike, and are participating and promoting the incredibly worthwhile Critical Mass initiative.<br /><br />In Sudbury, the Sudbury Cyclists Union has been doing something similar throughout the summer, holding rides through our community's downtown and surrounding areas on Sunday afternoons, starting at our local Farmer's Market. I understand that these events are starting to crop up throughout the nation, and I believe that there is excitement in the air regarding cycling.<br /><br />Later this month, 8-80 Cities will be hosting a cycling ride in Sudbury featuring local Olympian Devon Kershaw, who lost his beloved girlfriend to a cycling tragedy back in 2002. We hope to line the streets with a 1000 cyclists. Certainly, cyclists from Barrie who wish to join us in Sudbury on August 31st at 5:30 in front of Science North are more than welcome to come out for a great night of cycling!<br /><br />Thanks again, Erich, for this touching blogpost.Sudbury Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03959184192546029807noreply@blogger.com
