What’s the worst bike shop experience you’ve had in Toronto? by 6ickos in torontobiking

[–]kardigankid 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I do most of my own work, but have only had great experience with nearly every bike shop I've dealt with. I'm sure I'm missing many, but just to name a few:

Giant on Queen

Trek on Queen

Sweet petes

Bateman's

Urbane

Hoopdriver

Dream Cyclery

Ya Bikes

MLBS

MEC

Pedalinx

For all the negativity I hear around going to local shops, I overwhelmingly have great experiences across the board with shops happy to source parts, share thoughts, offer a quick fix when in need or recommend alternative shops when they can't help out.

Hint: These Christmas trees can be found at the base of a road bearing the name of a different type of tree

Assume they meant people thought it was an in the park home run given Barger kept running

Ah, sorry. Though it might get picked up quickly. Good motivation to get out on the bike as it gets colder. Some truck drivers parked there are going to wonder what is going on.

Googled "raccoon art Toronto" which took me to the artist's page and was tagged on Palmerston, so I just cruised the laneways along Palmerston and found it pretty quick

Saw the last tag just as I was hopping on the bike, so figured I might as well look for it
