Description

Join the Whitehorse Urban Cycling Coalition and the Cycling Association of Yukon for our monthly Thursday Slow Rides.

Thursday, July 23rd - Start at Whiskey Jack's at 6:30 pm / End at Whiskey Jack's at 8:30 pm (Porter Creek, Crestview)

These rides are welcoming, social, no drop, relaxed, and perfect for the commuter curious.  What better joy than finding yourself on a bike in the sunshine?  Our goal is to create a new Third Place for cyclists in the territory.

So what's a Third Place?

A third place is a welcoming, informal public space outside of home and work where people can comfortably gather, connect, and spend time without pressure to buy or belong. For cycling commuters, these can be cafés, parks, or other community spots along a route that offer a place to pause, meet others, and feel part of a shared urban life, turning a daily ride into something more social, human, and enjoyable.

So come join us on at 6:30 pm for a ride. The $2 suggested donation covers your insurance for the ride duration or you can purchase a Cycling Association of Yukon Community Membership ($40) and that covers you for the year along with many other CAY programs. *Or you can just join for free and enjoy time on the bike!*
