BY POPULAR DEMAND: DATE AND FORMAT CHANGE…

This is no longer a 24hr event – it’s now 12 hours! Less time on the spin bike and no overnight shifts!

AND if the long weekend was bad timing, check your calendar… it’s now happening on November 29th!

What is it? A 12hr relay-format spin-cycle fundraising event for teams of 1-12 people.

When? From 7am-7pm November 29th, 2009

Where? Teams will spin their hearts out in the beautiful, modern Steve Nash Sports Club cycling studio in downtown Vancouver.

Who are we raising funds for? Get on Your Bike! is a proud supporter of Cops for Cancer, which raises funds and awareness for the Canadian Cancer Society’s Camp Goodtimes.

What is our fundraising target? Teams participating in Get on Your Bike! are asked to raise $1500 in pledges: the cost to the CCS to send one child with cancer to Camp Goodtimes for one week (there is never any cost to the families). Simply, each $1500 raised by a Get on Your Bike! team, makes one child’s dream week at Camp Goodtimes come true!!

What’s in it for me? Well, for 12hrs in October, your team will join forces with like-minded people to share your strength and stamina in support of some pretty incredible young people.

It’s a powerful formula: one Spin Relay team x $1500 in pledges + 12hrs of relay spinning = one courageous child’s dream week at Camp Gootdimes.

That’s quite the way to kick off the festive season!

Space is limited. Join us for the inaugural offering of this annual event!
