Walk n' Roll: Family Bike Ride and Active Transportation Event
On June 30th, we will celebrate the end of Bike Month 2022 and the launch of the Everyone Rides Initiative's Adaptive Bike Hub at Gage Park from 10 AM - 2 PM.
We are inviting families and people of all ages and abilities to come out and experience nature using active forms of transportation. Green Venture is officially collaborating with the Everyone Rides Initiative (ERI) to support the launch of their Adaptive Bike Hub which is located in Gage Park at 11 am. As part of this event, the ERI is providing us with a Group Ride pass, which will allow us to sign out Hamilton Bike Share bikes for you! Please reach out if you would like to reserve one of these bikes or let us know on the day of the event.
Activities include leading groups of attendees in a 1.5-kilometre loop around the Gage Park, where we will share some of our favourite sustainability and cycling facts, and a stop at the Adaptive Bike Hub along the way to learn about and test ride adaptive bikes. Our first group ride will depart at 10:30 am and stop at the Adaptive Bike Hub.
This is a drop-in style event, so attendees can do the loop on their own time, but we will be leading groups through the park at four different time slots throughout the event: 10:30 AM, 11:30 AM, 12:30 PM, and 1:30 PM. There will also be a group stretch and dance party before each loop to get everyone ready to exercise! Attendees are encouraged to participate in this activity in whatever way feels best – via cycling, skateboarding, roller-blading, use of a mobility aid, walking, jogging or however else you would like to get around!
We can't wait to see you for a fun day in the park and experience the benefits of active transportation together! Check out the Eventbrite link for more information and please register there to let us know you are coming.
