Bike to CAP AIDS

By capaids on September 25, 2008 - 11:12am

The BC Chapter of the Canada Africa Partnership on AIDS (CAP AIDS) presents the 3rd ANNUAL BIKE TO CAP AIDS Vancouver bike-a-thon on October 4th. Registration starts at 9AM; Ride starts at 10AM.

Beginning and ending at Trout Lake, the family-friendly ride will follow a 20 km bicycle route to English Bay, and back to Trout Lake for refreshments and celebration. Come out and join us for a good ride, good food, good music, good people and a good cause!

Every $200 raised during the bike-a-thon will allow CAP AIDS to provide a bicycle to an HIV and AIDS outreach worker in Africa – allowing them to reach up to 5 times as many people.

To participate, either as an individual or as a team, sign-up at www.capaids.org.
For more information, contact us at 778.885.0510 or capaidsvancouver@yahoo.ca
