Why work in #LdnOnt for the summer?
- recreational bike scene is *superb* (ride to the beach in 90 minutes, take the gorgeous gravel route home)
- you'll be working 100% of your days on solving the #ClimateEmergency.
- get to know and love the Deshkan Ziibi (Antler River)
If you're a @WesternU or @FanshaweCollege student, you'll see a different side of the city. If you're from out of town, you'll discover some of the incredible energy flying under the radar here in #LdnOnt.
There's so many more (and lots not on Twitter), so think about hot summer nights, and bike rides with new friends, and ask yourself what you can do to solve the biggest challenge humanity has ever faced. We can't wait to meet you!

Our big shipment of @ternbicycles arrives on Thursday! Can't wait to get you out on one, they're unbelievably fun to ride, electric, or analog... Who wants a preview thread? 🧵

Let's start with this: what model are you most excited about?
Let's start with the flagship GSD (Get Stuff Done). It's worth its weight in gold, with the ability to carry two kids in comfort and style inside the optional Clubhouse Fort, and comes equipped with the Bosch Cargo Line motor standard. londonbicyclecafe.com/bike-store/ter…
The GSD comes with a second battery slot built-in, so if you need extra juice, adding more power is a snap! The payload of the GSD is second-to-none, rated to 200 kg (440 lbs), meaning you answer yes to "what do you have in there, rocks?" and still get where you need to go.

Bike friends,
Our 2021 @larryvsharry listings are (nearly) complete. Waiting on the double seat pricing and availability to round things out. Here's the preview, time to start dreaming/building! #LdnOntBike
The bread-and-butter E6100 returns. Gates Carbon Belt Drive is why this bike is spectacular - silent, maintenance-free, and tons of fun! londonbicyclecafe.com/bike-store/lar…
New this year is the Shimano EP8 motor - 85 Nm of torque (WOWZERS!) coupled with a Shimano XT Di2 12-speed derailleur for maximum speed, range, and maneuverability. Who said cargo bikes have to drive like minivans? Also pictured, a new LizzardKing colourway! Yum!

Today the Secretary General of the United Nations called for oil production to be ramped down immediately due to the severity of the climate emergency. Another cyclist was killed by a negligent traffic engineer. We need immediate action on both issues, now

The @CityofLdnOnt has 3500+ km of roads, & 7.5 km of protected bike lanes planned/funded before 2030. That's simply not good enough. We need to rethink our streets, from the ground up. Small tweaks & disconnected half-measure infrastructure won't fix the problems we face.

Working on a bunch of web-store updates. Pre-orders for 2021 will be live soon (we don't have a lot left in store, send a DM if you're looking for something sooner than spring!). Most stoked about Bullitt EP8 - 85 Nm of torque and Di2 XT 12-speed gearing... launch time.
What a spectacular lineup.
Which Bullitt are you? List your top 3! #LdnOntBike

Alright, bike friends, I just locked in our last spring order. It's the largest single cargo bike purchase we've ever made, so let's get excited about what's coming!! #CargoCult2021 #LdnOntBike
Does anyone still play Mario Kart? I feel like cargo bikes have lots of analogs to the characters in that game... #MarioCargo

Tern HSD: Definitely Toad. Small. Lightweight. So agile in corners. Can fit in small spaces.
Which charcter best represents the Larry vs Harry e-Bullitt? Definitely Mario. "I'ma gonna win!" is the attitude of Bullitt (the fastest cargo bike) The new EP8 Shimano Steps motor is extra powerful, like getting a super mushroom whenever you need it (demo coming!). #MarioCargo
