We posted some of Hyedie’s great photos from the Pie Ride yesterday (and Dandyhorse did a post about it too!), and I thought I’d share some photos I took too. I was leading the ride through a unique route through industrial, residential, rich and poor neighbourhoods, through pedestrianized streets and car-free bridges… and didn’t get [...]
Over on her Cupcake Ride blog, Hyedie has posted a great re-cap of the Pie Ride we had this past Saturday. Start Point: Madeleine’s Cherry Pie and Ice Cream, 1087 Bathurst Street (south of Dupont) End Point: Canadian Pie Company, 798 Queen Street East (east of Broadview) Here are a few photos from her Flickr [...]
The Latest and Greatest Sweet Ride is tomorrow, and we’re starting and ending the ride with Pie! We’ll be starting off at Madeleine’s Cherry Pie and Ice Cream up near Bathurst and Dupont and finishing way down in the Queen and Broadview area at the Canadian Pie Company! We’re not releasing our route, (mainly [...]
If you’ve been following along with our Sweet Rides, you’ll remember that in April we had a Cupcake Edition, and in June we had a … well, let’s call it a Bakery Edition (you can read about the issues we had) and now it’s almost August, so Hyedie of the Girls Cupcake Ride and I [...]
Hyedie, my great co-organizer of the Sweet Rides, is a really good photographer, and she’s posted some more photos from our Sweet Ride on Sunday. Here are a few of some of the ride participants having fun. The Group! Hyedie! Annie! Jen and Tanja! Joe S. & Amanda! See all of Hyedie’s photos on the [...]
This past Sunday saw the 2nd of 2011s “Sweet Rides“, the food-based rides planned by myself and Hyedie of the Toronto Girls Cupcake Ride. The Sweet Rides are co-ed rides that start and end with food (and sometimes have food in the middle). It’s good stuff. This past Sunday was planned as a “Dufflet Ride” [...]
A few details have changed about this ride, so I thought I’d update everyone with a new post. Because our Sweet Rides are so popular… Dufflets has told us that they can not accomodate us in their small retail spaces… so we’ve gone out and arranged all new better places to stop on our ride! [...]
This Sunday (June 19th) myself and Hyedie are having our 2nd “Sweet Ride“. This one is based around the Dufflet chain of bakeries in Toronto (and coincides with their excellent Tour de Dufflet they have every year during BikeMonth), so it’s the “Dufflet Edition“. (see photos from the first Sweet Ride here) We’ll be starting [...]
You may remember that back in April we had a “Sweet Ride: Cupcake Edition” … we had 21 people come out to a bike ride from the Cupcakery to Bobbette & Belle. Yes, we started with cupcakes and ended with cupcakes. You can see photos from the ride here and here and a short video [...]
