About this Event
Take a slow, fun and informative bike ride through Queen Street West. See how it IS possible to still get to this iconic neighbourhood while a historic transit infrastructure project is being built. If there is a will, there is a way!
The ride will be safely lead by Toronto's first Bicycle Mayor with multiple stops highlighting and sharing some fascinating Queen West tidbits along the way. Expect a complimentary snack break supporting a local business. The end stop will also be at a local pub or restaurant where light snacks will be served. We ride rain or shine (should unsafe inclement weather be present, then the ride may be rescheduled).
Proceeds from the ticket sales will be donated to The Bike Brigade.
