It's as the poster says. We're having a vintage bike show here in Toronto on July 29th from

12:00 noon -6:00 in Trinity Bellwoods park (the Queen entrance).

This is the first year for the event and we're hoping for a good turnout.

Everyone is welcome to come down with their vintage bike (or without) and

there is no admission. Several vendors have responded so I hope to

see several bikes for sale as well as vintage parts and accesories.

Thanks to Vintage CCM for putting the poster on the home page.

Unfortunately I wasn't able to make it to this show due to a family commitment, but sounds like it was a good one.

Well done Greg!

Here's a report from the Toronto Star.

Awesome day it seems like. I'm glad the even was successful.

Do we know how many of the 60 bicycles donated to the Museum of science and technology in Ottawa are on display?

Also is there a picture of the Shanghai Phoenix?
