Our gathering is simple - hear stories and sometimes songs about how cycles have made positive differences to people from all works of life across the ACT and beyond.

Tonight you'll hear from year 11 student Darcy, who's been riding with the Hosking Bikes Junior Bunch since 2023. Her talk is called More than Just a Bike Ride: Lessons from cycling I use every day.

Steph will discuss her Bikepacking Library and why she loves bike packing.

Local dad Robert will describe his adventures as a cargo bike dad, and DJ and businessman, Mista Nige, will share his joy of mountain bike trails. 

Make new friends and connect with old ones as we gather for the communal experience of storytelling.
