Two of our Sauciers, Una and Sydney, are going to be biking across Canada this summer and they’re going to need some help from the Canadian (& Australian!) cycling community! The goal of this wild adventure is to write The Gonzo Guide to Biking Across Canada, a book that will:
teach and support others with their own quest of biking coast to coast, and
We found this neat-o infographic on the Internet and wanted to share it with you. We can’t all move to Portland, so let’s make Toronto a bike-friendly city!
Okay guys, who likes My Drunk Kitchen? Its got nothing to do with bikes right? RIGHT! But it does have to do with kitchens, and bikeSauce has a kitchen. The saucy host of My Drunk Kitchen, Hannah Hart, is doing a tour with her show and we’re pitching the bikeSauce kitchen as one of her tour episode locations!
Check out our video pitch directed, produced, filmed and edited by our own Anibal Davila, starring a handful of regular Sauciers and one exceptionally feral bike. Et parce qu’il est canadien, il est aussi bilingue!
To give our wonderful volunteers a break, we are closed from Friday, December 21 to Sunday, January 6. We will be back open at 5:00PM on Monday, January 7, 2013.
We wish you all a safe and happy holiday season and a saucy New Year!
Earlier this year, Toronto residents voted by the thousands for NOW Magazine’s annual Best of the City issue that explores Toronto’s best food, shopping, and cultural hot spots. Yesterday, the 2012 Winners were announced, and – to our delight – Bike Sauce is one of them!
Voted THE BEST under the “Best Bike Mechanic” category, we’re thrilled to be recognized by so many folks that had a truly great bike repair experience at our shop. We’d like to take this opportunity to thank everyone that voted, and to celebrate everyone involved in the Bike Sauce community that have directly, or indirectly, contributed to this achievement. We’re number 1!!
Melissa Tancredi, of olympic soccer glory is going to come test ride her new bike today, want to come for a quick ride though the Don valley? meet at the sauce at 5pm!
no longwinded explanation this time. Here is an SUV pinata I made for one of our sauciers, we smashed it! watch for the instructable so you can make your own.
It is often tempting for one of our vounteers to demonstrate a repair by taking the tools and doing it themselves. It is certainly faster that way, but thats now what we are here for.
So in the following weeks, you may see some bikesauce volunteers wearing oven mitts while they are helping you. this means they cant handle the tools themselves, so you will have to be extra patient with them
