SHARE believes people should have access to healthy and nutritious food where they live and in a dignified manner. Over 400 Tri-Cities families receive food from the SHARE Food Bank weekly. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nSUNDAY AUGUST 13  |  9:00 am\nCHECK-IN: 8:15 – 8:45 am \n\n\n\nAbout The Ride\n\n\n\n\n\nMembers of the Tri-City Cycling Club will take groups with similar abilities on routes throughout Port Moody\, Coquitlam\, Port Coquitlam\, and Pitt Meadows that will showcase the best of our beautiful backyard. There will be a choice of a 70 km\, 85 km\, or 100 km route that all start and finish at Rocky Point Park in Port Moody. \nThe ride will end with a picnic in the park with each rider enjoying a well-deserved burger (beef\, chicken\, or veggie) while they rest their legs and enjoy some camaraderie and music. The post-ride BBQ is graciously hosted by the Coquitlam River Lion’s Club with drinks from Yellow Dog Brewing and Tinhouse Brewing. \nThe $30 registration fee plus any extra donations will go directly to the SHARE Food Bank. We are coming together as a community to care for those struggling to make ends meet. Tax receipts are available for those donating more than the minimal $30. \nSpace is limited so register quickly.
