Ottawa is gearing up for an exhilarating day of fun and fitness with this year's Navy Bike Ride—and guess what? It's not just for cyclists this year! Whether you're into running, walking, or biking, this event is ready to roll out a warm welcome for everyone.

This isn't your typical race; it's a celebration of community and giving back. By joining the Navy Bike Ride, you're not just burning calories—you're also fueling a fantastic cause. Every pedal and step contributes to the Royal Canadian Naval Benevolent Fund, Support our Troops, and Soldier On, making a significant impact on the lives of veterans and their families.

But wait, there's more fun to be had! The BMO Kids Zone is back, bigger and better, with bouncy castles and a slew of activities to keep the little ones laughing all day long. And let’s not forget about the limited edition NBR Jerseys up for grabs—get yours before they zip away!

Navy Bike Ride 2024

When: June 15, 2024

Where: Ottawa, ON

Why You Should Participate: Switch up your weekend routine and join a community of riders, runners, and walkers from across the nation. This event is not only a fantastic opportunity to support our veterans and their families, but it's also your chance to give back to those who've served by doing something you love—cycling or walking in one of Canada's most scenic settings.
