Hello Cyclists!
Are you ready for Go By Bike Weeks? We sure are! We have been busy behind the scenes preparing to support cycling in our community.
At the beginning of the year, we were fortunate to recieve an Imagine Grant from Northern Health to promote health through physical literacy and promotion of safety. What that means is that we have purchased bike helmets, bike racks, lights and reflective material to make cycling a safer experience. It is officially equinox and that means that we are entering a dark time of year, we want you to be safe and be seen!
You can make an appointment at Change Makers to arrange to get a bike helmet or reflective gear/ lights if they will make your journey safer, you can call us at 250-627-4100 or email changemakerseducation@outlook.com to make arrangements. While visiting 661 McKay St., you can keep your bike secured by using our lovely new bike rack.
We were also able to support the workers and residents at North Coast Transition Society with a nice new bike rack, now they are able to keep their bikes safe and secure.
Remember to login and track your rides, we are planning to offer daily draws of prizes, but they will only be available to those who have recorded their trips.
Also, we encourage you to share your photos and contact us with any insights, stories or ideas you may have through our Go By Bike Prince Rupert Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/GoByBikePR
Happy Cycling!
