We’re making the call- the Green Gravel ride today will be cancelled due to rain. Check the calendar for other upcoming rides.
Spring GoByBike Week is taking place May 31- Jun 6 2025, and it’s not just for commuting, it’s for every ride, for every reason including recreation. GoByBikeBC’s vision is “A future where everyone has the opportunity to experience the joy of cycling for work, for play, for well-being, for the planet.”
If you aren’t already part of a GoByBike team, consider joining the MIVA team. You can manually log your rides or integrate your strava account. If you’ve signed up in previous years, just log into your account to register, and log at least one ride that week to be eligible for prizes.
Last year during Spring GoByBike week the MIVA team had 11 active riders logging 44 rides over 1776 km. Let’s see how many kilometers we can log this year!
We’ve made the decision to cancel today’s gravel/CX ride due to ongoing rain showers, and accumulation in the past few days leading to muddy trails and slippery roots on the route. See you out there another day!
For those who placed a Jackroo order, they are now available for pick up at Coal City Cycles. Run on down!
You have no doubt noticed the three logos on the back of every MIVA jersey: that is because these local shops have earned this honour with a long standing history of supporting our club. Over the years they have contributed in so many ways, including donating prizes, sponsoring rides and events, and always being willing to share their expertise.
On top of all this, we are pleased to highlight these additional offers available to MIVA members. When you make a purchase at any of the shops listed, mention you are a MIVA member and receive:
10% off clothing and accessories at Arrowsmith Bikes
15% off selected clothing and accessories from Rock City Cycle (discount dependent on item purchased, excludes Shimano products).
Rewards card available from Coal City Cycles to collect and redeem points for discounts.
No need to show membership affiliation, a mere mention will suffice.
We extend a big thank you to these businesses for supporting MIVA and the cycling community in the Nanaimo area.
