The Big Ride – June 26th and 27th

The Big Ride (in support of cancer research) is taking place on our trail Saturday, June 26 and Sunday, June 27.
There are currently 41 riders registered and more may register. Please note that there will be extra traffic along the trail during those days.

Riders have been informed of the importance of using their bells to alert other trail users when overtaking and to use extra caution in ‘residential’ areas like the Fox Hollow area and intersections.

If you see any of the Big Ride riders along the trail cheer them on, as the name suggests it’s a big ride and riders could use the encouragement!
