Hi Rob, What is the source you quoted?
If I understand the information, that source is suggesting that the badge the Cyclist Battalion wore is the one for the 1 Division Cyclist Coy? Other sources (Taboika, Stewart, Charlton) indicate that the battalion badge was the second one in your last post.
Interesting observation about the units that made up the Canadian Corps Cyclist Battalion. The formation patch is a triangle, made up of segments of red, blue and "horizon bleu" (French gray) which were the colours of the first three Canadian Corps divisions. That would reflect the note about the composition, that the Cyclist Companies of those divisions made up the newly formed Canadian Corps Cyclist Battalion. Makes sense.
