The Montreal Bike Fest

Sports > Bicycling
During this bike-crazy week, drinking on the road is permitted, the legal driving age has been abolished and no training is required! We’re obviously at the Montréal Bike Fest! In fact, drinking is recommended in order to stay hydrated and make the most of the cycling events. Children, whom we love to see physically active, can ‘drive’ by pedalling in the street. As for training, there’s no need: this is not a competition - just thousands of people coming together for the pleasure of biking according to their own tastes and motivations.

The Metropolitan Challenge

Sports > Bicycling
During the Montréal Bike Fest, take part in the first excursion of the summer. A perfect opportunity to join other avid cyclists and push your limits. The scenery along the route, which begins in Saint-Lazare, is mainly blue, since you will ride close to the Ottawa River in the morning and then along the St-Lawrence River near the end of the loop.
