Wheels for Darling Home for Kids ride is an inclusive family event welcoming to riders of all ages and abilities. Riders are supported along the route with rest stops, water and snacks. Darling Home for Kids invites corporate teams, families, and individuals to come out and support the cause. The event also has a pavilion for family activities.

Riders get a fundraising page that is automatically created upon registration to express commitment to the cause and as a tool to ask friends, colleagues and family to support the cause by making a donation.

Former professional and Olympic cyclist Michael Barry will be a guest at the 2016 event. For more information and to sign up for the ride visit darlinghomeforkids.ca
