Earlier this week, we shared Dave Heighway’s sto Earlier this week, we shared Dave Heighway’s story about how he goes by bike. Here are his top tips: 🚲Try an e-bike for commuting - Whistler’s a hilly place! E-bikes aren’t about replacing bike trips, they’re about replacing car trips. People end up riding further, faster and more often on an e-bike than on a regular bike. Plus they’re cheap to operate, great for your health and you arrive un-sweaty! 🚲Get pannier bags to carry your stuff. 🚲Wear the right clothes and wear your pants outside your boots. 🚲Use a bike trailer to go to the beach - My bike trailer is a converted flat-deck that was once a bike trailer for kids, I got it for $30. I carry a cooler, BBQ, propane tank, bocce balls & umbrellas. Add another bike with a trailer and that’s a family of four ready for fun right there! Got a question for Dave? Pop it in the comments between now and the end of May and we will get back to you with answers. 💚 Get details on Whistler’s Big Moves and options for personal climate actions at: whistler.ca/GoByBike #smallstepsforbigmoves #climateactionwhistler #bigmoveswhistler #climateaction #gobybike #gobybikeweek #gobybikebc @rmwhistler
