Mississauga.ca - City Hall

As an ongoing Mississauga Cycling initiative, casual bike rides will be held throughout the City beginning in Spring 2012, ward by ward.

Designing neighbourhood bike tours for residents is a great way to encourage cyclists of all abilities to �get out there� and learn the local routes in a supportive group. Mississauga has so many recreational trails and it is important to learn how to ride to them safely.

The July 6, 2012 Ward 9 Group Ride will start and end at Meadowvale Community Centre beginning at 6:00 pm to 8:00 pm.
