his month as part of the Small Steps for BIG MOVES his month as part of the Small Steps for BIG MOVES campaign we’re focusing on going by bike. Are you considering biking more? Here’s what Dave has to say: My name is Dave Heighway and I’ve been riding my bike year round in Whistler for about 10 years. I work for an e-bike company; you could say I’m an advocate for biking! One of the most amazing things about Whistler is the Valley Trail system that makes it fast, easy and safe to go everywhere by bike or e-bike; it’s even mostly plowed in the winter (use studs!). Riding instead of driving is totally doable for lots of folks in this town. Get fit, have fun and reduce emissions! Tune in later this week for Dave Heighway’s top tips on this month’s climate action. 🚲 Get details on Whistler’s Big Moves and options for personal climate actions at: whistler.ca/GoByBike @rmwhistler AWARE Whistler #smallstepsforbigmoves #climateactionwhistler #bigmoveswhistler #climateaction #gobybike #gobybikeweek #gobybikebc
