Who Are 'Les Domestiques'?

Les Domestiques started in early 2009 as an idea. Many of us love to ride. We may not race. We enjoy riding and networking with like-minded individuals, and we like to give to good causes. The concept of "Les Domestiques" was born around filling this need in the Greater Toronto Area. We eventually hope to expand to other areas of Canada.

Mandate

Like-minded cyclists having fun promoting philanthropy, the value of cycling, and an active healthy lifestyle

Vision

Become an influential, unified voice for cycling philanthropy and sustainable advocacy in Canada

Who We Are

We are like-minded cyclists who like to ride together to raise money for charities. Our aim is to use our leadership to inspire more people to take up cycling and to raise money for charities

1.Mission

To achieve a part of the mission of Les Domestiques, an advocacy committee for sustainability has been formed to help governments provide a geographically extensive network of cycling paths for commuting, fitness and commerce. These paths must be safe and promote the four main benefits of cycling: reduced cost of living, health improvement, environmental protection, and the promotion of Canadian competitive cycling.


2.Beliefs

The bicycle is the most energy efficient, affordable and healthy mode of personal transport available to the majority of Canadians. Les Domestiques is committed to promoting a safe, popular and vibrant culture of cycling in Canada.
We will have group rides, special events, and you'll have a ready made "team" to attend Charity rides with (see Events page).
