Bike Action is an advocacy group, made up of volunteers who are passionate about increasing access to cycling in the Trent Hills community.
In partnership with the Trent Hills Public Library and funding from the Campbellford Seymour Community Foundation, Bike Action was able to make Road Readiness Kits available for loan to everyone in Trent Hills.
While they will be hosting more DIY bike maintenance events, safety training, and other bike-related activities in Hastings, Warkworth and Campbellford, they are most excited about their group ride program.
We spoke with Organizer Heidi Schaeffer.
Biking is not only good exercise but these group rides allow you to connect with others who like to bike too.
Currently there are about 20 people attending these pre-planned rides and according to organizer, Heidi Schaeffer, their motto is to encourage people to get outside, get active and get connected with others in Trent Hills.
For more information about these monthly group bike rides visit Bike Action Trent Hills Facebook page www.facebook.com/groups/486352075842766/.
