Cyclists can ride the bus for free this week in Prince George

BC Transit will be offering free transit for cyclists in Prince George for GoByBike Week.

GoByBike week started yesterday (Saturday), and will run until Friday.

Customers taking part will have to use the bus’s bike racks or show their bike helmet while boarding the bus to qualify for free transit.

All BC Transit buses are equipped with bike racks on the front of the bus, allowing cyclists to combine the two forms for transportation when travelling longer distances.

However BC Transit notes bike space is limited and cannot be guaranteed.

The annual GoByBike Week campaign originally began in Greater Victoria in 1995 with 500 participants, and has since grown to a provincial initiative.

Throughout the week, cyclists are encouraged to log their bike trips, for which they’ll be entered to win a trip to Vietnam.
