STATEMENT ON COVID-19:

following public health guidelines, we encourage all members to be vaccinated against covid-19. If you are not feeling 100%, please stay home.

MEMBERS MUST PRE-REGISTER FOR CLUB RIDES using the cycle club app. THERE IS NO SHOWING UP TO THE RIDE START IN THE HOPES OF JOINING A SCHEDULED RIDE.

The Dark Horse Flyers Cycling Club is Toronto’s friendliest cycling club. We are primarily road riders with some mountain bikers, gravel riders and triathletes amongst us. DHFcc hosts multiple rides per week, organized by ability to ensure that everyone has a safe and enjoyable ride. We keep group sizes small and intimate enough to get to know people, see them regularly on the bike, learn a thing or two and have a good time together.

To comply with the requirements of our Ontario Cycling (OC) membership policy, you must be fully registered as a club member to participate in club rides. Only sanctioned club rides are covered by membership (i.e., club rides that are registered and approved by the OC and listed on our Ride Board and in the Cycle Club App. If you have already purchased a 2024 UCI Race License, 2024 OC Challenge or Compete Membership or have a 2024 OC Community Membership with another OC Club, you are already covered for OC membership.

We are an adult cycling club (18+). A condition of our membership is that you read and become familiar with our Risk Management Plan and designed to make our rides and events safe for all participants. Our Ride Guide gives you plenty of information on How we Ride.

Our goal is to bring cyclists together to ride, admire scenery, dodge streetcar tracks, share advice and talk about our favourite route segments over post-ride coffee or beer.

what is sport accident coverage?
Sport Accident coverage is a medical benefits policy that is Excess to provincial health care and any other available benefits plan. Eligible medical expenses are paid by the insurance provider, up to the limits described in the policy.
For more information visit: Insurance Program and Insurance Program Summary.

This coverage is an option as part of your online membership registration. You can also opt-in after your initial registration process by logging into your CCN Bikes account. While we recommend this individual personal accident coverage, you should check with your current insurer (if you have one through work, etc.) to see if you are already covered or not.

Looking for individual BICYCLE coverage? Our insurer recommends Oasis Saskatchewan’s Pedal Power Insurance for personal use pedal bikes and also covers competition use. Coverage is separate from your Homeowners/Condo policy.
