The membership of the Toronto Cyclists Union has approved a name change to Cycle Toronto and our renamed organization seeks assistance with the creation and implementation of the Cycle Toronto brand across our existing marketing assets. Cycle Toronto has a major opportunity to launch this new branding loudly during Bike Month, which we are running in conjunction with the City of Toronto.
On Wednesday, May 2, the Toronto Cyclists Union held its Annual General Meeting in the basement of the CSI Annex Building. With over 200 members in attendance, the bike union voted on a new name, held board elections and reflected on the past year. Fair Vote Canada oversaw the vote to ensure a fair and transparent process.
