Those in the downtown core will see an exceptional sight during the month of June, all in the name of fundraising.
A total of 29 riders will join together to power the massive Big Bike in support of the Heart & Stroke, Durham Region and Peterborough branch.
The Big Bike event is a signature challenge for the Heart & Stroke, a Canadian charity dedicated to advocacy, education and funding of research towards heart disease and stroke.
Approximately 200 events are run across Canada each year, raising nearly $5 million in total.
Oshawa will host two Big Bike events next month on Tuesday, June 4 and Wednesday, June 19.
Both events will take place near the Regent Theatre in the city’s downtown core.
