Heart & Stroke Big Bike Event a Success!
On May 26, 2008 the Advocis Greater Hamilton Chapter had 19 members and guests ride the Heart & Stroke Big Bike, a bike built for 30 riders, through downtown Hamilton. Our Chapter raised $1,987.50 for the Heart and Stroke life-saving research. Not only did we get plenty of exercise riding the 2-3 km Hamilton route, we had lots of fun joining in on the team building games prior to our ride. We gained community awareness through the ride with our “Advocis” sign on the front of the bike, cars honked their horns and spectators waved as we passed.
