What is it?
Cathy Griffin, a member of HUB Burnaby, will lead a two-hour bike ride from Gilmore SkyTrain to Hume Park in New Westminster. The ride is suitable for cyclists 12 years and up.
When is it?
The plan is to leave Gilmore SkyTrain at 11 a.m. and head east to New Westminster. Riders are expected to be back at the station at 1 p.m. This is the second of five community rides Griffin has planned for this summer.
Why it could be fun:
The free ride is a great way to discover new bike trails and find out more about beautiful Burnaby. Plus, you’ll get to meet some fellow Burnaby residents and maybe even make a few new friends. You’ll also get to test your street riding skills a bit as this trip takes you down a couple streets.
What should I bring?
Your bike, of course! You’ll also need a helmet, and you should bring water and a snack. The weekend is supposed to be mostly sunny with warm temperatures, but it’s always a good idea to pack a light jacket in case the wind picks up.
Do I need to register?
Nope. Just show up at the Gilmore SkyTrain station at 11 a.m. on Sunday.
One more thing:
This is a fair-weather bike ride. If it’s raining or if there’s a chance of rain, assume the ride is cancelled.
