- Be a Citizen Cyclist – As you ride, you may encounter areas of concern (blockages, damage, missing connection points in routes). Help address these concerns by reporting your findings on our Infrastructure Repair and Suggestion form.
- Be a Cyclist – Your very presence on Calgary’s roads, streets and pathways is encouragement to others.
The cycling community is made up of riders who take their bike out for a spin once or twice a year, are just learning, are seasonal or good-weather riders, are errand runners, are family riders, are commuters and are year-round riders. No matter your style of riding, your involvement in our riding community makes Calgary a more bike friendly and great city in which to live.
