Games-Brazilian cyclists at Pan Ams kicked off Toronto highway (Reuters)
Nine Brazilian cyclists looking to get in some Pan American Games training had a run-in with Toronto police on the weekend after they were spotted riding along one of the city’s highways. The athletes, who were all wearing their Brazilian team uniforms, were out for a one-hour ride early on Sunday when they ended up on the shoulder of what is normally a busy highway. The team, unaware that cyclists are not allowed on the highway, were very apologetic for the mistake and were escorted off the highway.
