January 22, 2015 (Toronto, ON) – The Toronto International Bicycle Show, which claims to be the largest bicycle consumer show worldwide, has added three new exclusive events to its already popular line-up of activities for its upcoming 2015 edition, March 6-8 – an Electric Bike Course, Mini-Velodrome racing, and the 2K Virtual Challenge. The show will feature the most up-to-date displays of new bicycles, accessories and apparel from over 150 manufacturers, distributors, retailers and other exhibitors.
It’s also the best place to discover the latest emerging trends for 2015 and beyond and enter special draws for great prizes. As well, the show gives back to the community by sponsoring BAM (Bicycle Assembly and Maintenance Program) and giving free space to over 20 Ontario cycling clubs and associates. By promoting cycling as a healthy lifestyle, the show helps the environment. Cycling conserves air, water and other natural resources while reducing greenhouse gas emissions and noise.
