Cycle the Denman Island Home & Garden Tour 2024!
The Denman Island Home & Garden Tour team would like to see cyclists take over the island during the event this June 15th and 16th. There will be a draw at the end of each day to win a basket of prizes for those cycling the Tour.
We want to encourage people to ride their bikes. Given that the Tour is all about raising money for conservation purposes, we are thrilled to reward green transportation. With our ever-increasing awareness of climate change, it seems ever more relevant. The visible presence of many cyclists adds an appreciated “green transportation” value to the tour, which raises money for conservation on the island.
Another advantage of cycling the Tour is there is no waiting to board the ferry during this busy weekend.
To enter the cyclist’s draw, enter your name in the draw at the Denman Arts Centre (1016 Northwest Road) to win a gift basket.
The island has an all-purpose trail (crushed gravel) alongside a substantial part of Denman Road, offering cyclists a safer, more tranquil option. Please be sure to wear visible clothing and/or have lights on your bike to make sure vehicles can see you if riding on the roads.
Total Tour route is about 31 km, of which 8 km are on gravel roads. Bring your lunch or enjoy the meal services offered by many Denman Island eateries.
Don’t forget to bring your water bottle!
