Not only did your riding build community it also helped the West Kootenay Cycling Coalition and #GoByBikeBC expand the voice of cycling in our City.
How does this make a difference?
The WKCC is an active voice in the development of cycling infrastructure, your participation in GoByBikeBC Week helped demonstrate our community support for biking as a form of active transportation.
Strong biking support = Ongoing advocacy for more cycling infrastructure from our Civic and Provincial leaders = Safely Moving together!
