Description

We held our first Ride in 2006, the year we lost my husband OPP Sergeant Greg Stobbart. With
the help of Dennis Mizerski, my friend and the owner of Racer Sportif in Toronto and Oakville,
we organized the “Share the Road for Greg Ride” to remember Greg, to remind us all to share
the road, and to raise funds for what would become the Share the Road Cycling Coalition – the
cycling policy and advocacy organization we launched in 2008.
Since 2006 the number of Rides in Ontario have grown. This year, we are involved in eight
Rides in Ontario covering some of the most beautiful and scenic areas of our province. The
Rides are meant for cyclists of all ages and abilities.
The growth in the number of Rides reflects cycling's growing popularity and the desire for
communities to host an event which brings together community partners to promote cycling –
and in particular the “Share the Road” message. It also means increased opportunities for all of
us to enjoy the company of old and new friends in the great outdoors.
Please stay tuned to our website for updates. As details become available we will post them here.
As always, if you have any questions please contact us at: info@sharetheroad.ca
These Rides would not be possible without the support of our partners, both nationally and at
the community level, and our sponsors. Our thanks go to the organizing committees of all of our
Rides – tireless volunteers who work diligently to bring you memorable, enjoyable events.
In memory of loved ones we have lost, and in celebration of an activity we all enjoy, we invite
you to join us in communities across Ontario this summer. We remember, and we celebrate.
We look forward to seeing you. In the meantime, thank you for your support.
Yours in safe cycling,
