The Robertson Building
What's new
Bike Week at CSI
Bike Week, a salute to bicycle culture, celebrated it's 17th birthday this year. Organized by the City of Toronto and the Toronto Cycling Committee, the event features actions and activities created by organizations and community groups throughout the city. This year on May 30 the Centre for Social Innovation (CSI, Suite 120) joined the festivities by hosting a lunch and learn that covered commuting tips, how to protect your bike, and how to create a bike-friendly workplace.
Cycling Ambassadors came to lead the discussion and provide information on how to join an increasing number of people who commute to work on a bike, and also brush up on rules of the road with seasoned cyclists. The lunch and learn session ended with a visit to the basement of the Robertson Building to have a look at the bike racks that are used by tenants and visitors to the building, and do a demo for folks who weren't sure how to lock up.
