Winter Cycling Mentorship Program

Paths for People and Bike Edmonton are pairing Edmontonians who have winter cycling experience with folks who want to give it a try.

The two non-profit organizations hope to foster the city’s cycling community and boost Edmontonians’ knowledge, comfort and confidence around cycling in the colder months.

It’s free.

HOW IT WORKS:

1) PANEL AND MEET-N-GREET SESSION

Friday, February 28 (7-9pm)

Bike Edmonton South Community Workshop

Seasoned winter-cyclists will cover the how-tos in a panel discussion. Then the mentors will be paired with novice winter-cyclists to answer any questions and problem solve one-on-one

2) KNOWLEDGE SHARING

February 28-March 13 

A month for the new winter cyclists to try out what they heard and learned at the panel session. They have a chance to ask questions and get insights from their mentor via email over the month. 

3) GROUP RIDE

Saturday, March 14 (11am-12pm) 

Meet at the Bike Edmonton South Community Workshop 

A one-hour group ride with all the mentors and mentees. 

WHAT YOU NEED TO PARTICIPATE:
