Cycle

COVID-19 update: When you’re out for exercise, we encourage you to follow directions from BC's Medical Health Officer, including practicing physical distancing by keeping two metres of space between yourselves and others.

There are many benefits to choosing cycling as your main form of transportation. Cycling to work or to the store is a great way to exercise, feel healthier, experience your neighbourhood and sneak some play time into your day.

In urban areas, cycling is the fastest way to travel 5- to 10-kilometre trips.
