GoByBike Week is rolling into Â鶹¾«Ñ¡ and the Central Okanagan from June 3 - 9. With free events and activities planned throughout the week, it is sure to be a ‘wheelie’ fun time.

The group will meet at the RCA at 1 p.m. and will ride to Vice and Virtue as a group. For more information visit kelownapride.com.
