Please join other Community Bicycle Network members in our Strategic Planning Workshop, November 29! This is open to all CBN members and people interested in the strategic direction of CBN.

CBN has been operating a bike shop for 2 years. We have also had successful programs of bike mechanics workshops, bike give-aways and tool rental drop-ins.

How can CBN do things differently or better to achieve our mission?

We will be looking at different elements of CBN: store management; our mission to marginalized individuals; connections to other organizations; our public role; and volunteer development.

Refreshments and snacks available.

Please call Herb at 416-912-6130 or email to RSVP or inquire.

CBN's mission, in short, is to promote the health through cycling; provide education in bike maintenance and usage; preserve the environment through recycling used bikes; and to educate the public through seminars on sustainable transportation.

Drop by our Open House this Saturday and see what's new and exciting at CBN these days!

Hang out with staff and volunteers - we'll be providing free snacks and beverages.

And of course we always accept bike donations!

See you there!
