*Bike Week celebrates the big 1-0 with BIRTHDAY BASH*
Sunday, 1-3 p.m.
Manitoba legislative grounds Free
GET on your bikes and ride: Bike Week 2023 winds up with an afternoon of family-friendly activities, games, culture and music in honour of its 10th birthday.
Papa Mambo, James Culleton’s SuperFun Show and DJ Mama Cutsworth will supply the tunes.
The best mechanics in the city will face off in the Bike Olympics. Photo booths, bike-themed crafts, obstacle courses, a gigantic slide, a mobile plant sale and a host of other games and activities will be on offer — plus free hotdogs for the first 100 attendees.
The fun doesn’t stop at 3 p.m., though. Riders can join the Pinata Pedal Party from 3 to 4 p.m. — where your challenge, should you choose to accept it, will be smacking down pinatas while in the saddle — and the Bike Week After Party from 3:30 to 5:30 p.m. at the Beer Can (1 Granite Way), where the first 60 riders will receive a complimentary beverage and DJ Hunnicut will spin tunes.
