For every person attending there is probably five more of us who could not make it due to work, family, etc. But who hugely appreciate the effort made by organisers and attendees. Thanks all, thanks @cyclehalifax.ca

Bike lanes are just an excuse. Our local democracy is under attack. With Fillmore's track record, he hasn't earned our trust to be given more power. Local Democracy works! Write the mayor, the premier, your councillor and MLA.

Houston, we have a problem! Deputy Mayor Mancini sets the record straight -- all parties were consulted and approved the Morris St bike lane plan, including Emergency Health Services and the Port Authority. What has changed?

Our Learn to Ride and Bike maintenance sessions, originally scheduled for Friday 11th and Saturday 12th of this month, have unfortunately been cancelled. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused. The consequent events in the series, will still go ahead as planned.

Join us this July at the Halifax Cycling Coalition for an exciting lineup of events! Whether you're an avid cyclist or just getting started, we've got something for everyone. Mark your calendars and be a part of our cycling community this July!
