On one of our rides to Horseshoe Bay, we met up with a great group of cyclists who are training for the Just-Giver Supercycle in August. The Just-Giver Supercycle is a mass charity ride meant to kick off a further seven-day journey from Vancouver to Cranbrook, BC.

While only six riders will be completing the whole ride to Cranbrook, the SuperCycle gives the general public the opportunity to complete a 100 kilometer ride, which will help raise funds and awareness for Parkinson’s disease.
