BIG BIKE FOR STROKE AT NORTHSHORE AUTOMALL NORTH VAN

Jun 24, 2005

By Catherine Barr

 

It's a bicycle built for 30 and by the time this year is done, it will have travelled across Canada and raised more than 7 million dollars for heart and stroke research. The Big Bike for Stroke made the rounds on Friday at the Northshore Automall as local businesses got on board for this very worthwhile cause.

Vancouver's best events and celebrity functions are all archived here. Vancouver pubs, clubs, nightclubs, gala events and fundraisers are included. Thanks for viewing.

Due to server capacity, you will not be able to access or click through to the larger photographs. With over 250,000 unique visits each month, our site would quickly exceed the amount of memory needed.

If you would like to receive a copy of a photograph, then please send an email and enclose the details of the event, the date, the name, the photo number and the names of the people in the photograph. Also, for security reasons, I prefer not to email copies of pictures to anyone other than the people who are actually in the photo. Thanks.
