    We would like to get involved with promoting bike riding events to or from Amherstburg. How can we help.

      There is an annual event called the Bike TREK that rides through Amhertsburg in May and I know that they are looking for help in promoting the event. It is taking place on May 26, 27 , 2012 and you should contact the Windsor Lung Association office.

    We should have critical mass rides, maybe people will realize that bikes were on the road long before the cars were.

    You should add BikeTrek 2013 to the list! I recently registered. Happy to see the route will be ending back in Windsor this year also.
