< Back "Wheelie Good Adventures" Cycle Touring Presentation Series Mar 19, 2026 Are you curious about cycle touring? Or looking for inspiration on new destinations? Join us as we travel Canada and the world by bike! Mar 18th Continuing South to Colombia Martin Prestage In 1996, Martin Prestage ‘almost’ completed an around the world bicycle tour, heading south but finishing in Costa Rica. Twenty-four years later in 2020, he continued his journey with a circuitous tour of Western Cuba, a short hop through Panama, and a sail through the San Blas Islands to Cartagena, where he embarked on a fantastic and hilly ride through northern Columbia. Join us to learn more about his most recent escapade to maybe, one day, reach Tierra del Fuego! Apr 8th A Tale of Two Trails Kylie Hutchinson & Mike Wilson In 2024 and 2025, Michael Wilson and Kylie Hutchinson embarked on two very different cycling journeys: 1200 kilometres on the Cascades Palouse Rail Trail across Washington State to Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, and a 1400 km loop from south of Ottawa to Montreal and back with stops on the Great Lakes Trail, Le P’tit Tren du Nord, and the Quebec Eastern Townships. Join us for the highlights of both adventures and get inspired for your next cycling trip! May 13th Independent Cycle Touring in Comfort - Spain and other destinations Stephen Forgacs & Pamela Lee Stephen and Pamela love cycle touring, but are no longer so keen on pitching a tent at every stop. Nor do they want to lug bulky bike boxes around on longer international trips that included just a week of cycling. As they discovered, it's easy to cycle tour independently and still have a shower and comfortable bed at every destination without breaking the bank. Hear their tips on cycle touring made easy, fun, comfortable and relatively affordable. Previous Next
