"With quiet rural
roads, beautiful vistas, few hills - but challenging enough to know you made
an effort - MS Bike - Prince Edward County is the tour for you!” says Mac.
“The area has a number of fine wineries and restaurants, which is why making
a weekend out of your cycling experience is something very common for
participants of this tour.”

Mac is a long-time volunteer, supporter and participant of
the MS Bike. “I have been involved in MS Bike - Prince Edward County since
its inception. This will be the 3rd year for the tour, but my involvement
with the MS Bike spans over 25 years!” he explains. Mac has been a Tour
Leader for the majority of the years he has been involved in the tour. This
rewarding position involves riding the route alongside participants and other
Tour Leaders, making sure everyone’s ride goes smoothly and arriving back at
the finish line with participants on the last leg of their journey. |
When asked why he continues to volunteer his time as a
Tour Leader, Mac responds, “Being a Tour Leader is simply a great way to give
back to an organization whose values line up with mine. It's not about racing
or prizes. It is altruism and sharing in helping to find an end to MS. The
joy of accomplishment when a participant who may have never done this type of
event crosses the finish is a reward for me.” To become a Tour Leader, please
email msbike@mssociety.ca.
