This video taken during the finals of the Toronto BMX Jam at the Bike Show on the weekend is INSANE. Insanely good, but insane. I’m kind of mad I missed it. Insanity – Toronto bmx jam 2012 from Will Anderson on Vimeo.

Video and Photos from the Toronto Tweed Ride
October 18, 2011 By Leave a Comment
This past Saturday was Toronto’s first Tweed Ride. It was immensely successful (we estimated about 200 people showed up) and this will be an annual event. We kept hearing again and again how much fun everyone had and how they can’t wait until next fall when we do it all again (and hopefully bigger and [...]
Video: 10 Minutes at Bay & College
July 23, 2011 By 2 Comments
I had such a good time filming everyone on the “Ride for Jarvis, Ride for Toronto” ride on Wednesday (and then speeding it up and putting it to music), I thought it would be interesting to do something similar to watch traffic patterns at an intersection. I found a place I could see most of [...]
Music Video of the Ride for Jarvis!
July 21, 2011 By 3 Comments
During the Jarvis Ride last night, I found a little raised platform near the Tim Hortons at Jarvis and Carlton, and filmed the ride going by. It took a full 7 minutes for the ride to completely pass me, so I’ve sped it up a little, and added some lively music. I’m quite happy with [...]

July 4, 2011 By Leave a Comment
The 2011 inaugural ArtSpin was held last Thursday on a glorious summer evening. After a quick rider’s meeting we left Trinity Bellwoods and took to the streets in Critical Mass style (but happier and a bit less political). The tour had six stops which included visits to Birch Libralato, Diaz Contemporary and Walnut Studios. There [...]

Video: Don Cherry and his Pinko Rant
December 9, 2010 By Leave a Comment
Heard about Don Cherry’s rant against Pinkos the other day? Want to see if in full pink0-suit colour? I’m wondering if he thinks that all Pinkos ride bicycles, or that anyone who rides a bicycle is a Pinko. Hmmm. Check out the shirts we made yesterday. They’re unisex, they’re v-neck, they’re made by American Apparel. [...]

Duncan has posted the “Put The Days Away” music video by Sun Airway. It’s a nice portrayal of night cycling through a city… cruising through a vibrant urban landscape when it’s “on pause” at night: One million thanks to Ricardo Rivera at Klip Collective, who in addition to being an excellent dude and creating all [...]

October 28, 2010 By 1 Comment
Duncan has posted a great video of a kind of Time Trial race up an old hilly cobblestone road in the Town of Frome in Somerset, England. It’s clearly a lot of fun: Uphill sprint races bring out costumed riders and kids! It’s the Cobble Wobble. Where in Toronto could we stage something like this? [...]

Blogger Stephen, on his Cycling50+ blog, discovers he has more in common with David Byrne than he thought: “Lady, if I was a truck you wouldn’t be doing that” oohahhahahaaaa. I thought david byrne would ride around NYC thinking of how to turn the Statue of Liberty into an oboe – but he’s thinking like [...]
