SASKATOON — Winter BYXE Week will take place Feb. 15 - 23. Many activities and events are planned throughout the week, including Bike to Work Day on Thursday, Feb. 20.
Local advocacy group, Saskatoon Cycles, is co-ordinating the events in partnership with the City of Saskatoon, including a BYXE Week scavenger hunt and photo contest.
“Riding a bike is great for physical and mental health; regular exercise leaves you feeling refreshed, energized and alert,” says Nathalie Baudais, Transportation Engineering manager.
“Don’t limit your cycling adventures to warm weather seasons. Add winter cycling to your list of must-do winter activities like skating, sledding, skiing and snowshoeing. It's a convenient and low-cost form of everyday transportation that benefits Saskatoon by decreasing traffic congestion, noise and air pollution.”
