I’m confused. Is this spring now – or are we in summer? Either way – there is a big, fat, long weekend upon us and that means that Farm Dog Cycles will kick off our second season in TWO SHORT DAYS! There are bikes to be tuned, books to be kept, desks to be cleaned
Wow. A big thanks to everyone that came out last night – how nice to be able to meet so many new people! Things are heating up – not only the temps, but a big jump in overall times and lots and lots of aero-y nerds. We love you, tri-dorks! Congrats to the speedy Liz
Having worked the tasting bar a few times in my day – nearly a decade of guiding wine tastings exclusively in our very own EPIC Wine Country, here are my best tips I’ve picked up along the way from the wealth of quality wine-makers and pro-tasters I’ve had the pleasure of learning from here in
A big congrats to everyone that made it out to the first Farm Dog Time Trial of the season last night! Cyclists (or at least this one) are a lot like Farmers – the weather is never quite good enough, but we get out there and do our thing anyways. Big, cold west winds (~25km/h)

We’re moving! Don’t worry – it’s not far - just down the road. We couldn’t leave. It’s funny, people I run into every day still ask me if we planning on staying in the area. Moving from across the country, buying 30 bikes and starting a business is the kind of stuff commitment is made of,
Kicking off the last official week of summer with a rainy day Monday. I’m making soup and dreading heading off to my office job next week. I’ll have to wear shoes – and PANTS – for the first time in months! There is LOTS going on in the next few weeks – on the bikes

The forecast for the next two weeks would cause any weatherman extreme jealousy 25, 25, 26, 25, 23, 24, 25….you get the picture. Sunny skies and smooth sailing, and we earned it this summer.

It’s official! We are very excited to be offering cycling tours at the Shores of Erie International Wine Festival this year! The Shores of Erie is one of the best festivals in Ontario, and one we wait for every year, since it happens in lovely Amherstburg, Ontario – just down the road. Featuring all local
