Visioning Day for Cycling PEI
Courtesy Cycling PEI

Cycling PEI is pleased to announce the first ever Visioning Day for Cycling PEI as well as an opportunity for businesses to promote their products. An exciting day for suggestions on how you think the future of cycling on PEI should look as well as ways to explore partnership opportunities.

The goal is to have anyone who is interested in bicycling in attendance. Be they recreational, commuters, tourists, road, mountain, racers, environmentalists, city planners, recreational directors, etc. This is an opportunity to highlight what you view as gaps and what you think could be solutions.

The day is free with lunch provided. The date for the event is Saturday January 28 and the location is 40 Enman Crescent in Charlottetown (House of Sport).

A poster of the Visioning Day session as well as booth information can be found Here.

If you require further information, please contact myself or Kelsey McIntosh, Executive Director of Cycling PEI, at 368-4208 or kmcintosh@sportpei.pe.ca.

Respectfully,
