Winged Wheels

The Toronto Police Service “Winged Wheels Motorcycle Team” is a precision motorcycle demonstration team comprised of officers from the Enforcement Group of Traffic Services - Highway Patrol. In 1990, then Chief of Police William McCormack authorized the formation of the team. Superintendent Gary Beamish provided the necessary drive and foresight into this unique and successful initiative.

The WINGED WHEELS are named for the insignia proudly worn on the sleeve of the police officer's uniform. This crest, in one form or another, is internationally recognized as the badge of motorcycle officers.

The team is under the command of Superintendent Stephen Grant, the Unit Commander of Traffic Services - Highway Patrol.

The Officer in Charge of the Team is Staff Sergeant Larry Bryson who leads the colour party and the team onto the performance area before each riding demonstration. The movements the Team employs in its show, displays the high level of riding ability of the members. High speed cross-overs, virtually impossible slow speed turns, impeccably timed intertwining circles and precisely dressed linear movements display not only the individual skills but the trust and concentration every team member dedicates to every performance. The skill and ability of each officer to handle their 850 lb. motorcycle acts as an incentive to the motorcycling public to develop safe riding skills and attitudes.

The members of the team always take time before and after performances to interact with the public. These informal meetings bring the police and the public together to strengthen the bond between the police and the Community.
