Bay of Quinte Bike – Eclipse Ride

April 8 @ 2:00 pm - 5:00 pm

Free

Join us on April 8, 2024, for a once-in-a-lifetime ride as we pedal around Belleville’s trails under a total solar eclipse that won’t be visible again in our area for another 300+ years.

Take The Afternoon: Join us on April 8, 2024, for a once-in-a-lifetime ride as we pedal around Belleville’s trails as the moon eclipses the sun.

We’ll start the ride just ast the moon starts to cross paths with the sun. Our route will explore quiet back streets and side trails as the eclipse develops. We’ll end up at Zwick’s park with time to settle in and prepare for this stellar moment!

This family-friendly, community ride is open to all ages and skill levels and is expected to take approximately 1h of riding time. Get out of the house with the family for the PA day and enjoy the spring weather! This route is a Rambler: expect primarily flat, paved riding on established trails. Your guides Adam and Laura will be leading the way and ensuring no one is left behind.

Gathering Point: Meet at the West Zwick’s Park Pop Ups parking lot, located west of the pavilion at 2:00 PM on Monday, April 8, 2024.

Route Details: We’re keeping it local: our route will meander through Belleville’s in-town trails and recommended bike routes, eventually leading us back to West Zwick’s Park. Here, we’ll dismount and gather for the main event—the total eclipse. We’ll have hot chocolate, iced tea, and snacks to enjoy in the darkness!

The Bay of Quinte RMB Land Acknowledgement

The Bay of Quinte Regional Marketing Board is committed to acknowledging, appreciating and understanding the Indigenous peoples’ historic connection to this land and to raising awareness by building relationships in collaboration with Indigenous partners and communities. 

We recognize and acknowledge that we are living and working on the traditional territory of the Wendat, Mississauga, Anishinaabeg and Haudenosaunee which includes the Kenhtè:ke Kanyen’kehá:ka (Mohawks of the Bay of Quinte) with whom we work in direct partnership with. 

This partnership focuses on the common goal of celebrating the region with the Kenhtè:ke Kanyen’kehá:ka who are equal partners within the organization and at the Board of Directors table contributing to the mandate and operations.

This mandate includes listening to, learning from, and collaborating with the Kenhtè:ke Kanyen’kehá:ka and actively incorporating their culture and heritage into the practice of responsible destination marketing and management of the region.

We understand that this land acknowledgement is only a small step towards the larger process of reparations and reconciliation.
