This spring and summer in Convent Glen North (in Orleans), check out the weekly drop-in family bike event dubbed Pedal and Play. Modelled off the idea of a bike bus to school, this event instead mimics a city bus to move families through the community on wheels. Each week, you’re invited to get on your bike, meet your neighbours, and have fun!
The aim is to help kids and parents get comfortable on their bikes and show families they can quickly move through their neighbourhoods to local parks or shops, or even friends’ houses. Rides will start and end at a variety of local spots to let families get to know each other and the area better. All ages and abilities are welcome, join in!
Check out all the details at cgow.ca/pedal. The kickoff event is happening on Sunday, April 27 at 10 AM (RSVP if you’re in the area).
