Volunteers are the heart and soul of any successful event. In fact, most charitable events would not happen without the passionate support of the outstanding volunteers who give their personal time to lend a helping hand.  With your help, we will bring together 10,000 cyclists to ride on the DVP and the Gardiner Expressway to support Baycrest as it works to create a world where every older adult enjoys a life of purpose, inspiration, and fulfilment.
