TOTAL DONATIONS TO LOCAL TRAIL ORGANIZATIONS: OVER $105,616
Beyond being Canada's Premier Bike Shop, Calgary Cycle is committed to giving back and supporting various initiatives. In recent years, Calgary Cycle has focused its efforts on 2 main categories - helping kids gain access to bikes and surrounding area trail maintenance. CC has proudly donated to kids programs (with an emphasis) to advocate for bike education and safety in addition to distributing over 200 bikes so that everyone has a chance to get pedaling!
We all want the trails to be accessible and taken care of for years to come. The crew at CC is enthusiastic about making this a reality and focuses efforts on the following popular riding areas: Moose Mountain, Bragg Creek, Kananaskis, Crowsnest Pass, and the singletrack areas around Calgary. To date, over $100,000.00 has been given to make an impact on trail quality in these regions.
