CALLING ALL Fans
Our fabulous cyclists and their generous donors have raised more $350,000 in 7 years --so far! Come out to show them some love and encouragement.
CHEERING
It has been tradition that Gogos, friends and supporters come out to cheer for the cyclists on September 8. The cyclists report how thrilling it is to be encouraged and appreciated for their efforts. It's what brings them out year after year to ride and raise funds. We hope you will join us. Bring your signs, cow bells, pots and pans, pom-poms, and balloons to show them how much we appreciate their hard work.
BRING YOUR CHAIR
The cyclists are spread out over an hour on the route and you might have to wait a while to cheer from the first rider to the last. Please bring your own chair for cheering and for meals.
WHERE/WHEN TO CHEER
Here is a rough timeline and some locations for you to cheer:
8:30 - 9am - 13479 Sharpe Road, Pitt Meadows, ride begins. Park on the opposite side of the road please. Photos taken, light breakfast refreshments, welcome to cyclists and volunteers.
10am - 11am - Lions Park, 2300 Lions Way, Port Coquitlam. First rest stop. There is room to park. Fans can cheer along the path before the cyclists turn into the rest stop
Also along Argue Street just past Shaughnessy Street. (cyclists exit the path and enter on to Shaughnessy near Mary Hill Bypass and then turn off Shaughnessy onto Argue.
