Starting Sunday, May 24 (if it’s dry!), we will leave the Bean Scene on Dickson Road at

9 AM!

Please let others know. A short reminder of the rules: No passing on the right, hands on the handlebars at all times, no one gets dropped and always stay for coffee after !

Gorgeous weekend ahead! Just make sure you outsprint the predators (courtesy of Mel) …

Thanks to everyone who came out today to ride with us. I think we counted 33 riders as we were leaving … I hope every rider got the ride they wanted, and we would love to see you out again.

Just a reminder of the two rules we have for the Beez rides:

1. No passing on the right. Ever.
2. We do not drop anyone. Some delays may occur because of this but it is the safest way to ride as a group.

Looking forward to a summer of riding!

And don’t forget: Wednesday rides are starting this week! Meet at 5pm at Kelowna Cycle. Conversational 35km ride.

I am planning to ride to Vancouver on the May long weekend: leaving Kelowna on Saturday, May 16, 1st night motel in Merrit, 2^nd night motel in  Hope or Chilliwack. Anyone interested in accompanying me?

Hi, Just wanted to say thanks to everyone for a great ride today. Was my first time riding with the group, and you were all such a great bunch to meet. Hope to see you again next week.
Thanks again!

The sun is shining and it’s 17C as I write this … so it’s time to get on the bikes! The official start of the Beez rides is Sunday, March 22. Meet at 10am at the Bean Scene Headquarters on Dickson road. Length and duration will depend on temperatures and fitness levels and motivation 🙂 As always, these are NO-DROP rides and we regroup where necessary.

Tomorrow, March 15, looks to be wet but if it happens that the roads are dry and you’re up for an easy ride, come to the Bean Scene (again at 10am) and see who else is keen to get out. Or we enjoy a coffee together!
