The 2009 Cyclebetes National Bike Relay was a huge success and we are gearing up for an even better 2010. Same format with a bunch of improvements as we build from year One.
The Cyclebetes National Bike Relay is a relay across the country from Nova Scotia to British Columbia, covering over 7,000 kms. This relay will consist of core group of teams from each of the 7 provinces Cyclebetes will cross. Each "National Provincial Team" will consist of 10 riders made up of both adults and youths rotating on the ‘tandem’ bike. As we pass through cities and towns we will be holding Community Rides where the locals can join in and ride a part of the journey with us!
For 2010 there will be 4 ways to get involved in the National Bike Relay:
Here is what a few of the riders had to say about their experience during the 2009 Cyclebetes National Relay:
“The journey that my mother, father, brother, grandpa and I have just completed will stick in my memory forever, but not only that, also all the people that cheered me on and gave me the extra push to get up this long, long hill"
SYDNEY GRACE - EASTERN ONTARIO TEAM
"The cyclebetes event itself was life changing for me. I have never been part of something so amazing where people have come together and worked towards a common goal such as finding a cure for Type I diabetes."
KERRY SJOLIE - INTERNSHIP SUPPORT CREW TEAM MEMBER
I don't think anyone walked away from it unchanged. The Cyclebetes team really created something special - not an easy thing to do, but the people involved made it seem easy!!" BARB SWEENEY - QUEBEC TEAM AND SUPPORT CREW MEMBER
I am not a cyclist, yet I had the time of my life taking part in Cyclebetes and was sad when my stretch was over!" DAVE MCLEOD - WESTERN ONTARIO TEAM |
