Ride, read, and explore Edmonton’s local literary scene—on two wheels.
Join Paths for People for a special guided bike tour of 10 independent bookstores in central Edmonton. This event is part of the 2025 Edmonton Indie Bookstore Extravaganza, and we’re celebrating the stories, spaces, and shops that make our city so special.
Along the way, we’ll be stopping at each bookstore for about 10 minutes—just enough time to browse, chat with staff, and maybe discover your next favourite read. The ride will take around 3 to 3.5 hours in total, moving at a relaxed, social pace.
This is a small group ride, limited to just 8 riders to keep things smooth and give everyone space to explore. This is a free event so we recommend bringing your own bike lock.
What to Bring
- A well-tuned bike
- A bike lock
- Water and light snacks
- Weather-appropriate clothing (sun, wind, or rain—we roll through it all!)
