Truth and Reconciliation Day Ride
Join us every year on September 30, the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. Learn about the impacts of colonialism and honour the survivors of residential schools, and ride together in celebration on a guided family-friendly route through Victoria.
The event is free, however if you are able to donate a small amount it will support bike education for First Nations children and youth and other Indigenous serving programs.
Check here for details every August as plans are announced for the Truth and Reconciliation Day Ride.
Themed Rides
Join us for one of our Themed Rides — fun, social, and guided group rides that explore the Greater Victoria area with a creative twist! Each ride features a unique theme, from our festive December Lights Ride to Halloween costume rides, rolling dance parties, and tours of new cycling infrastructure. Whether you’re in it for the community, the sights, or the celebration, these rides are a great way to connect with other cyclists and enjoy the region in a new way.
Rides are added to our events calendar and posted on this page as they are announced.
