TACA Community Bike Ride 🚲🌿

We’re doing it again! Join us for another TACA community bike ride, this time with a scenic loop through some of Ottawa’s best pathways.

📅 Saturday, May 9
🕙 10:00 a.m. start
📍 Meet at 50 Bellman Drive

We’ll ride as a group along the Centrepointe and Pinecrest Creek pathways, make our way to the Ottawa River, loop through Bayview, Dow’s Lake, and the Experimental Farm, and head back home. The full route is about 40 km at a relaxed, social pace.

This is a casual, no-pressure ride. It’s all about getting outside, being active, and connecting with neighbours.

🧺 What to bring:

• A snack or picnic lunch

• Water

• A bike in good working condition and a helmet

We’ll take a longer break of about 30 to 45 minutes partway through to relax and eat, plus a few shorter stops along the way.

🚦 Riding together:

We’ll keep things simple and safe:

• Ride at a comfortable group pace

• Use basic hand signals for stopping and turning

• Keep an eye out for each other

No strict rules, just shared awareness and consideration for the group.

Whether you’re a regular rider or just getting back on your bike, you’re welcome to join.

💚 Come ride with us!

No sign-up required. If you can, let us know on Facebook if you’re coming, but feel free to decide last minute.

We’ll keep an eye on the weather and post an update if we need to cancel. No rain date planned.
