We're kicking off our season on Saturday, May 4 starting at Max Ward Park. You'll explore the scenic trails and area near the airport on this 12 km ride. About the Community Rides program The City of Mississauga, in partnership with Toronto Pearson, is hosting a series of free, in-person bike rides from May to October. They are the perfect way to explore your neighbourhood by bike and meet new people. Rides are designed with a variety of distances and all riders are welcome! All rides leave the start location at 10 a.m. and will end with refreshments courtesy of our 2024 sponsor Toronto Pearson. Find the route here Registration procedures As part of the registration process on Eventbrite, you'll be asked to complete an online waiver for each individual participant. Registrants must sign-in at the tent/table prior to the ride and receive their coloured armband to indicate they have registered. Registered participants should arrive at least 15 minutes early to sign in. The armband must be clearly visible during the ride to identify participants, and must be returned at the end. Day of registration for this event is available, however space is limited and everyone is encouraged to register online beforehand to guarantee participation. If registering day-of, please arrive at least 30 minutes prior to the ride start time to complete written forms. Cancellation policy If warranted by the weather forecast, rides will be cancelled. Cancellation decisions will be made by the end of the business day prior to the ride, and be communicated to all registered riders by e-mail. There will be NO rain dates or rescheduling for cancelled rides. Minor participants All participants aged 17 or younger must be accompanied by a parent/guardian, and must be registered separately. Children aged 6 and under must travel in bike trailers, bike-mounted child seats or on tandem-tows, and also need to be registered separately.
