Toronto Bike Show 2009
Posted by Prashant - 05/03/09 at 09:03:02 am
The Toronto International Bike Show is quickly coming up from March 13th to the 15th, and with it comes the first BMX contest of the year, the Toronto BMX Jam. If you’ve been to the show before, you know what to expect, and if you have never gone, then do yourself a favour and make it out. Ottawa riders will be competing in the amateur portion of the street contest as well as the flatland contest on the other side of the building. Rich Redmond is also doing a Toronto screening of Hate This that weekend. Click below for full info on the show, contests, and events that weekend.
