A friend asked me if there will be competitions (he was asking specifically for Street). In your first post, it was not really clear if all the disciplines you named were just events like a meeting for Muni’ing, or if they were real competitions.
I also wanted to know, I know it is a bit early, but is there a way to get from Toronto to Guelph ? I was planning to come from Montreal to Toronto on bus, but then, I have no idea how to get to Guelph. If I am not mistaking, it’s quite a long way on a 20 inches (somewhere around 100 km ?).
Hi Hugo: Yes! We are planning on running all the listed events as competitions. More details on the format of the Street event will be posted when available.
Yep. It’d be a long 20 inch ride from Toronto to Guelph. It’s about 90km. It might make for a good warm up for the street comp. GO Transit (http://www.gotransit.com/) has bus service from Toronto to Guelph. As it gets closer to the event I’m sure there will be a bunch of people posting about rides.
I’ve dreamed of the day TOque would be back and I think this is as close as its going to get, same organizer, similar locations. I will hopefully be able to make it!
There is a regular bus service from downtown Toronto to Guelph every hour or so. They even stop right on the University campus, which will be the main venue for the event. The cost varies depending how far ahead you book it, but for a 14-day advanced fare it’s $19.50. It should be cheaper if you’re a student. (I used to pay about $11) If you go to Greyhound’s web page at http://www.greyhound.ca/scripts/en/TicketCenter/Step1.asp, you can fill in the relevant information to get the schedule and fares.
And yes, we are planning to have competitions. We are working on the actual format for the street comp.
