This incredible event saw staff from City of Nelson, Nelson Home Building Centre, Nelson Brewing Company, Nelson Professional Power Peddlers and Nelson District Credit Union jumped onto the Big Bike to raise money for the BC/Yukon Heart & Stroke Foundation.

The Big Bike seats up to 29 riders allowing organizations, families and corporations to build team spirit and profile in their community while raising funds for an organization that for the past 60 years has been dedicated to fighting heart disease and stroke.
