Calgary Brompton League

Your friendly neighbourhood Calgary Brompton Club.

Licensed to fold.
The Government of Alberta’s proposed use of the notwithstanding clause to shield its three pieces of anti-trans legislation deserves forceful opposition.

Make your voice heard. Discover your power in numbers.

Replaced the hinge clamps yesterday.

The Brompton hinge clamp design is intended for the clamp plate to wear instead of the bike's frame, so Brompton recommends replacing both clamps every 8,000 kms or when the gap between the hinge casting and the clamp plate is less than 0.90 mm.

Still vibing from the superbly fun social group ride and pop-up press experience earlier this week.

Much gratitude for the folder and folder-curious community that keeps showing up.

A beautiful evening to ride bikes with friends and reproduce photos with @sprawlcalgary.bsky.social’s pop-up printing press.

There was a festive air on tonight’s Brompton ride.

Thanks, one and all.

Took the new G-Line for a rip.

Quiet ride, not sure I felt a pathway bump on the wide tires. Responsive gearing, braking. Gearing range feels wide. Comfortable geometry.

Feels like a Brompton but also different, like more bike but softer ride.

See @bikebikeyyc.bsky.social to try it.

Our community rides, while not subject to Alberta's ban on trans girls/women in female sports, are open and safe for transgender youth/adults to join.

We believe transgender people deserve access to sport, activity, social well-being, and social connection.

Damn. I was just settling into my old routine of using the north bank pathway.

Tough conditions on the Nose Creek Pathway without the benefit of any ploughing, but in a nod to tradition, we left everything on the path and pushed the full distance.

Thanks for attending, everyone.

Noice! I can confirm a folded Brompton plays nicely with the Travoy trailer and will not tip it.
