U.S. Based Program Heads North � Bike Monkey Magazine

"Creating Bicycle Friendly Communities just got easier thanks to a U.S.-based program that is now available for the first time in Canada. The Share the Road Cycling Coalition, (SRCC) an Ontario-based non-profit organization which promotes bicycling as a mode of transportation, recreation and fitness through provincial advocacy, announced that the Bicycle Friendly Communities Program is coming to Ontario."

There are a number of other organizations, and cycle leaders - Ontario Cycles, Ontario Trails, IMBA Canada, Velo Ontario, Cycle Ontario Alliance and Bike On Tours who have made serious attempts to engage STR and our calls have gone unanswered. So while we appreciate STR getting CBFC here, they do not speak for all cyclists or groups in Ontario, and have seemingly, in fact resisted cooperation towards consensus and consolidation of Ontario Cyclists and their issues.
