RONA MS Bike Tours - Grand Bend to London
More Info | + My Favorites
Jul 24 to Jul 25
Where: Port Blake Conservation Area - 71151 Bluewater HWY

Tens of thousands of cyclists have taken to their bikes at the RONA MS Bike Tours. Some ride with friends, family, or form a team with coworkers. Some are looking for a new fitness challenge or a different way to see Ontario’s beautiful countryside. No matter why they ride, all participants in the Tours come away with the knowledge that they are making a real difference in the lives of people affected by multiple sclerosis.

The Grand Bend to London Tour is Ontario’s largest! Beginning at Lake Huron in Grand Bend, you will cycle along quiet rural roads to the University of Western Ontario in London for an overnight stay. Enjoy a fun evening of dinner, dancing, and prizes. The next morning, cycle back to Grand Bend for a well-deserved massage and finish line barbecue.

The Tour includes rest stops every 10 – 15KM stocked with snacks and beverages and lunch at the halfway point. Support vehicles, bicycle repair shops and experienced cyclists are on route to provide first aid and basic bike repair services.
