Winter GoByBike 2026
The Winter GoByBike for 2026 starts Saturday February 14th and runs until February 20th! While the Nanaimo Area Cycling Coalition is not organizing any special events for the event, we very much encourage you to participate!
The weather is pretty ideal too, with a mild winter on the island, and plenty of nicer days on the horizon. We encourage you to get out and ride, as winter riding for transportation is possible year round in the mid island region we serve.
And while we’re not putting on an event, you’re still part of the Winter GoByBike Week! You can still ride and have your chance to win provincial prizes!
All you have to do is log your rides! I do mine automatically via Strava!
Any ride counts. A commute. A quick errand. A school drop-off. A short spin around the block. If you get on your bike, it matters. All you gotta do is ride once to have a chance to win, and the more you ride, the better your chances!
Winter riding is about momentum, confidence, and community; and every logged ride helps show that people across BC choose biking as transportation, even in winter.
See you on the bike paths. Let’s ride!
