Toronto Car Pool to Local Races?

Aug 30, 16 7:44

I've been thinking about posting this for a while but I tend to steer away from local threads. That being said, I thought perhaps there may be some other athletes in the city that would be interested in car pooling to events. Save the planet, save some money, form some new friendships and meet new potential training mates.

If there are any others who'd be interested in this I'd love to hear from you.

I'm in the same boat myself but I do have a 3 bike rack and splitting costs would be a good way to have funds for upgrades :)

Which area of the city are you in?

Well I'm glad to see I'm not the only one in the city doing the same thing. Rentals can be inconvenient and expensive so I'm going to PM everybody individually and see about exchanging details so we can form a "car pool group" ...

This coming weekend is Guelph Lake II and if anybody is doing that perhaps we could try and work something out by then. If not its definitely something to get organized for 2017 season.

If anybody else would like to join the group send me a PM kindly.
