Destination Bike - Welcoming Cyclists in Hamilton and Greenbelt Areas

Are you a local business or stakeholder in the tourism sector? Ontario By Bike will be hosting a free webinar, Destination Bike - Welcoming Cyclists in Hamilton and Greenbelt Areas, on Tuesday, April 27. The Hamilton-specific webinar will help your business become more familiar with the cycling tourism market, find out how welcoming cyclists can be good for business and uncover new business opportunities.

While we won't be able to gather for Bike Month this year, that doesn't mean we can't still have fun! We've got some exciting events in the works, so stay tuned!

You know what else is just around the corner this summer? Hopefully lots of things, but we're particularly excited for 100in1 Day to return again. 100in1 Day will take place on Saturday, June 5th! Add the date to your calendars and be prepared to attend. More details to follow.

This would be an amazing way to fund 100in1 Day Projects!
