Cross Canada Cycle Tour Society (CCCTS) Gerry Porter Ride (with Victoria Grandmothers for Africa (VG4A) Wednesday, July 30, 2025.


This ride is open to everyone and you need not be registered for the VG4A Cycle Tour (nor a woman or over 55).   The ride is hosted by the CCCTS for both their members and the VG4A.

Two rides of different difficulties will both meet at Bright Angel Park for a “delux” hot dog lunch and cold drinks. Both rides start at 8:25 at the Brentwood Bay ferry terminal to catch the 8:40 ferry to Mill Bay. Alternatively you can meet the group in Mill Bay on Mill Bay Road near Thrifty Foods at approximately 9:25. All cyclists will return on the 3 pm ferry.

The longer and slightly hillier ride will be led by Maureen Weston. It is approximately 55 km and will stop in Cowichan Bay for coffee. The route continues just south of Duncan and returns via Koksilah Road to Bright Angel Park. The shorter ride is about 40 km. It turns west on Koksilah Road prior to descending to Cowichan Bay then crosses the Island Highway and on to Bright Angel Park. The return route will take us along the shoulder of the Island Highway for 2 or 3 km.  Be visible and vigilant.

Lunch is free but donations are encouraged as they will be matched by the CCCTS and go to the Stephen Lewis Foundation.

**We need to provide as accurate a count as possible in order for the CCCTS to prepare food supplies. Therefore please respond to this event invitation by July 23 if you plan to participate.
