Gleniffer is 100 years young. Built in 1912 in Hong Kong from Burmese Teak, she belies her age as her long narrow profile slices the waters near Ganges, British Columbia.

The Canada Day festivities on Salt Spring once again included a huge and well attended car show. Lot and lots of classic cars all shiny on the outside and immaculate under the hood.

An extraordinary display of creativity is on now at ArtSpring. pART Project 2012 is designed to help support cycling in Africa.
Velo Village celebrates rural cycling: here, there, everywhere. When SRAM Marketing wizard, David Zimberoff, reached out with an opportunity for us to contribute to cycling in rural Africa the answer was yes. The question was how?
“Start,” he said, “with a 100 bike parts. Make art. Auction the art. Give the proceeds to World Bicycle Relief.”
