Just a reminder that the Memorial Ride for Charlie Princep goes tonight at 6 PM at Jet Fuel Coffee at 519 Parliament (at Winchester, just north of Carlton in Cabbagetown).

The Globe and Mail also has a nice article about Charlie in the paper today:

On Tuesday, about 180 people gathered at St. Paul's Church on Bloor Street to remember the young man, who family friend Stuart Lazier called an independent thinker passionate about cities and the environment. "He was a young man who didn't just talk the story; he lived it," Mr. Lazier told mourners, adding that Mr. Prinsep would ride his bike everywhere - even in the winter - and would show up caked in mud with a grin on his face.

"Charlie, you were an inspiration to us all," Mr. Lazier said, fighting back tears. "You died living your dream. You died happy and fulfilled."

Be sure and go read it before the Globe puts it in the paid subscription area.
