Just swooning over some stills from @tomcochrane after Saturday's event!

Many more thoughts to share soon but in summary: What a time was had. We're already churning the brain gears for 2023.

[Tailwind Cycling, NL @NLTailWind]

Folks! There was a slight issue with our registration deadline on Sunday so we've given it a couple extra hours incase anybody had trouble.

8:30 p.m. today!

Feeling optimistic! That's a forecast we can get behind.

[Tailwind Cycling, NL @NLTailWind]

Spread the word

On September 10 there will be 100 bicycle riders on the Bonavista Peninsula.

Motorized vehicle operators should exercise extreme caution on these shared roadways.

Tell your friends, neighbors and worst enemies who may spend time on this route. Sloooow dooown!!

Our events are officially @ComeHome2022 certified!

Thanks to this, we're stoked to say participants of the Rough Waters Gravel Grind will receive their choice of these wicked Voltfuse lids... FREE.

Registration is available here, deadline is Sept 12 https://t.co/mVJhyXHEl2

As if we don't already.

(...we totally don't. Nope.)

[Canadian Cycling Mag @CanadianCycling]

With the recent spate of tickets for cyclists rolling through stop signs in High Park, is it time to consider the Idaho stop in Canadian cities?

We extended registration for the BonRexton Granfondo on the Bonavista Peninsula to August 10. It was supposed to close today, but we felt cheeky. Don't miss out. Link below!

Hi folks. Unfortunately we weren't able to make it work for the 2022 year. Those who were registered have been refunded. We'll be in touch regarding 2023!

All the best,

- The Port Au Port Fondo Team

[Tailwind Cycling, NL @NLTailWind]

We're making the switch ahead of a VERY exciting partnership announcement coming soon with some local PALs.

If you catch our drift 😏🤫😉

[Tailwind Cycling, NL @NLTailWind]

Hi there! We've changed our Twitter name and handle, FYI.

While the BonRexton Granfondo is our flagship event, the time has come to reflect our new identity as the organizers of not just the BR, but two other fantastic events in Newfoundland and Labrador.

[Tailwind Cycling, NL @NLTailWind]

Yeah so we went and did the thing a day early.

Registrations for NL's three biggest rides, the BonRexton Granfondo (https://t.co/o30RarkgDu), Port Au Port Fondo (https://t.co/TV97nEJMjd) and Rough Waters Gravel Grind (https://t.co/q7zUMtENkT) are all live.

[Tailwind Cycling, NL @NLTailWind]

Three of Newfoundland and Labrador's biggest cycling events are coming back for 2022.

- BonRexton Granfondo: Sept 10.
- Rough Waters Gravel Grind: Oct 1.

Registration for all three starts on April 1 and space is limited.

[Tailwind Cycling, NL @NLTailWind]

So, we won’t be putting up our signage tomorrow… 🤔

[Tailwind Cycling, NL @NLTailWind]

@Jillhen Insurance won't cover it. We asked.

[Tailwind Cycling, NL @NLTailWind]

Fuck you, Larry. Yeesh.

We’re keeping an eye on this, folks. Stay tuned.

[Eddie Sheerr @EddieSheerr]

Good Tuesday morning. It is becoming increasingly likely that Hurricane #Larry will bring impacts to Newfoundland Friday evening thru early Saturday. There are still some questions on the table in regard to a) the track and b) subsequent wind speeds as the storm passes. #nlwx 1/9

[Tailwind Cycling, NL @NLTailWind]

Hi folks,

We've got some news for you. Details are in your email inbox.

The TL;DR is: The BonRexton Granfondo will now take place on Sunday Sept 12, 2021. We can't wait to see you there.

100+ Bicycle riders will be on the road. What a grand day it will be.

[Tailwind Cycling, NL @NLTailWind]

For those who may be coming from away, we have great ride-and-stay packages arranged with Holiday Inn Express Deer Lake! Just give them a call at [phone] to inquire.

We have some very special treats arranged for this year's event so sign up ASAP!

[Tailwind Cycling, NL @NLTailWind]

The deadline for registering for the 2021 Rough Waters Gravel Grind is September 13th!

We have two incredible options. A scenic roll through West Coast NL farmland, or a fun but challenging ride around Deer lake.

We just sent your menu for Round Da Bay Inn's post ride meals and we'll need the orders back by no later than Sept 2nd.
Please respond ASAP.
