Ride with the tide on this eco-cultural bike adventure that’s not to be missed. Start at La Bikery in Moncton before heading out on trails that hug the Petitcodiac River, famous for its Tidal Bore, and part of the UNESCO Fundy Biosphere Reserve. Your guide will fill you in on the culture and ecology of the area as you ride along. A stop to meet a local storyteller will deepen your understanding of the region’s people and history. After that cycling works up an appetite, it’s time to stop at the Fundy Chocolate River Station where you’ll enjoy a local lunch on the deck. Finally, upon your return, it’s time to join a local artist to create your own up-cycled bike art that’ll remind you of your time with the tides.
