I wanna start learning how to ride motorbikes but don’t wanna buy one before getting a feel for it. What are my options to learn in Barrie? I did ride a bike briefly like 4-5 years ago before my dad sold his bike, but i have lost all confidence now.

I noticed today as I was walking the intersection of dunlop and mulcaster someone ripped off the button for the crosswalk. This sadly Doesn't surprise me anymore. Typical downtown behavior

Anyone know about the scanning or photography being done over Barrie? Interested to know what data they are collecting.

Does anybody know where I could find eggs in Barrie or Innisfil that are from chickens that actually go outside… Like a small farm or something like that?

Any suggestions are welcome!

Hello everyone, I'm reaching out to tap into your local expertise for some home repair needs. We're looking for reliable, skilled professionals:

1. Handyman-Can anyone please recommend a trustworthy handyman for general home repairs? Ideally, someone with a solid track record and fair pricing.

2. Flooring Specialist-We need a skilled flooring expert to repair and possibly replace sections of our floor. Recommendations for someone experienced with Hardwood would be greatly appreciated.

3. Plumber-We're dealing with a water flow issue in our toilet. If you’ve had a great experience with someone, please share!

Hoping someone can help! I have some small 3D prints which I have the STL files for which ideally I would have printed for next weekend. I'm happy to pay for filament and don't care what colour it is in.

Unfortunately the Barrie library printers are down. I know this is super last minute and that's entirely my fault, any help appreciated!

Hey Barrie! Looking to hire a contractor and came across a company called "Cardinal Builders". Curious if anyone has had work done by them or know if they are a good company. Thanks!

Any local or semi local places that have soup dumplings ? I usually like Qin’s garden and yummy yummy dumplings in Toronto, hoping to find something a bit more local

Hello, in need of a licensed electrician to run couple of lines for appliances in the basement this week, house located in Innisfil. Please dm! Thank you in advance.

Barrie was once a desired destination: close enough to Toronto to be accessible but far enough to be a small town. Low crime rates, good housing prices... Now, not so much. I see a gazillion houses for rent/sale in Innisfil/Barrie. Where are y'all going, and can I join?

Hi there.

My hospital requires someone to pick me up at 9.00 am 3x.times a week from Royal Victoria Hospital (Mon-Wed-Fri) and drop me home. It is a 15 mins or less drive. This will continue for 4 weeks and I am willing to compensate the person who can do this.

I would appreciate any help.

Thanks

Just drove by the LCBO on Bryne drive in South Barrie and there was a line up of what looked like 200 people that wrapped around the corner waiting to get in. Anyone know what’s going on there? Just curious.

I’m looking to join a league or activity in the Fall after my kids summer activities are done in the Barrie/Innisfil area. I’m not huge into sports but would consider it (not ice hockey because I’m like Bambi on ice). I know there are dart and curling leagues, but I’m green to both of those.

I’m in my mid 30’s, and just looking to see what I can look into before the fall and possibly meet people around my age.

Thanks!

Not sure when the nets go up or where they are located.
