Next Sunday, May 4, the regular Beez ride will start at 10am and cover about 60km.

After that, from May 11, we will be starting at 9am. For all Sunday rides, meet at the Bean Scene Headquarters on Dickson Road by the Landmark buildings.

Plenty of daylight is now available to start our Wednesday rides. Meet at 5pm in front of Kelowna Cycle, and we will leave promptly at 5:05pm. Sunset coffee afterwards. This social ride averages 35km around East Kelowna.

The Westside ride is also starting this week, and always welcomes any rider. As per Michael:
“So as always, weather permitting we will start the West Kelowna Friday ride at 09:00am from Starbucks on Louie Dr. Come and enjoy a hilly ride.”

A few of you have been looking for information on the “Return of the Beez” 🙂 Well, it has been warm enough so no reason to delay the official start of the cycling season any longer. The roads also seem to be swept sufficiently to ride.
So whoever is ready and has his/her bike dusted off, come out to meet like-minded riders for a social, non-drop ride. We meet at 10am at the Bean Scene headquarters on Dickson Road across Landmark. Later in the year, as it gets hot, we move to 9am but for now the start time is 10am.
Ride is social and probably starts with 45-50km in East Kelowna at this time of the year, increasing to about 75km once the legs are acclimatized. We ride different routes and decide on the morning of the ride where exactly we are going.
Any questions, please let me know (comment on this blog).

Please see the note from Heather Stewart below and make sure to add your voice to this project!!

This is really important additional corridor for cyclists, hikers and walkers to go from Kelowna to Vernon. It also has the potential to address a cycling pathway to UBCO.
