Bike to Work Week is back for 2013! It’s an event that keeps getting bigger, with more participants and more companies supporting it. Goldstream Bicycles has been involved since the early days, and continues to support it. This year we’re donating a Kona Dew commuter hybrid, complete with our Lifetime Tune-Ups and Flat Insurance service offerings, as a prize for a lucky BTWW participant.

For a third year in a row, we’re also co-sponsoring a BTWW Celebration Station! The past two years it’s been at Veteran’s Memorial Park across the street, but it wasn’t the best location for commuters returning to Langford in the evening. Ours is at “Crossroads Park”. Not sure where that is? We weren’t either, at least not by name. It’s right beside our bike shop, at the intersection of Goldstream and Veteran’s Memorial Parkway, nicely located on two busy streets bike commuters use, and not far from Atkins Rd. (which also has a lot of bike traffic) and the E&N Rail Trail.

We’re excited to move this event to Crossroads Park, in conjunction with BTWW, the City of Langford, and Don Kim (who owns the grassy land adjoining Crossroad Park). It’s this Thursday from 4-6pm. Thanks to everyone who’s participated in making this event happen.
