Anyone go(ing) to the Toronto Bicycle Show?

Doesn’t look like I’ll make it there.
I’m curious if it’s gonna be a big inventory clearance of Covid stock not moving.

Nope. Now that it is at the international centre it's a pain. When it was at the cne, I could walk there. I also think the focus on ebikes isn't my thing.

On a related note, next weekend there is a vintage mtb show on Sterling by the Kit Kat plant.

I've never been to the show at the International Centre.
The Ex is much closer but (free/cheap/close) parking could be a bit hard to find.

Any details on the vintage MTB show?

I know one of the providers of bikes and parts, so should be pretty good.

The last show they had at the International Centre (pre-pandemic), was a great show. Lots of deals to be had at the marketplace. There was also a slew of regions promoting their gravel and cycling networks giving away maps etc. I quite enjoyed that show.

Parking was tight when I went but it was free.

This year with the emphasis on E-bikes I am not as keen but will most likely attend on one of the days. It is a cheap afternoon.
