Good Life Community Bike Shop (Calgary)

Cycling is an efficient and inexpensive alternative to driving. It is also an option that helps to reduce the amount of carbon emissions caused by vehicles. Since the creation of the Good Life Community Bike Shop, there has been an overwhelmingly positive response from Calgarians, demonstrating a keen appetite for the valuable support services the shop provides.

The Good Life Summer Outreach Project will build upon the success of the Good Life Bike Shop to continue helping people to choose cycling as a commuting option. For a 6-month period, the Pedal Power Team will reach out to various communities in Calgary with a mobile bike mechanic and education unit to offer them tips on bike maintenance and to promote cycle commuting awareness.
