END Back at the Forks by 6pm.

Bikes and headsets are provided. Numbers are limited but we have 7 tandems available + whomever brings their own so we can accommodate a sizeable group.

Where: Winnipeg Trails has an HQ at the Forks. We run a bike valet service called BikeCheck in a very high profile and popular area. We will meet there. It is located in the south “atrium” of the main Forks Market building. Entrance is off the main patio, 15m southwest of the outdoor bar. Look for a red carpet and big willows in red pots. There are signs at most entrances. For any help finding location on site, text or call Doris at 204-793-0245.
