Who We Are
North York Cycles started in 2025 as a community group for people who wanted to cycle together. This led to dozens of people participating, resulting in lots of new friendships, good exercise, and fun memories! Additionally, North York Cycles expanded its offerings with bike tune-up events for community members to get their bikes checked and advocacy efforts to make streets safer.
Whether you’re new to cycling or a long-time hardcore road cyclist, this group welcomes all who like to cycle and support our mission and vision.
