Major closures will be in place in Toronto on Sunday for an annual fundraising event.
The Bike for Brain Health is expected to see more than 10,000 cyclists ride along the Gardiner Expressway and Don Valley Parkway.
Proceeds from the event go towards programs at Baycrest “for prevention, early detection, new clinical trials, and improving care for people living with Alzheimer’s and other dementias,” the event website says.
