This first ride is in honour of STAN FREYMAN, a local Chilliwack resident
who passed away in January. Stan was an inspiration to all self-propelled
travellers. After he retired, Stan became concerned about global climate
change and made changes to his lifestyle. He sold his s.u.v. and bought a
more fuel efficient car, rode his bike all over Chilliwack and took the
bus for long trips. He dreamed of a Chilliwack critical mass ride. Stan
was
living proof that it is never too late to change. With this ride we
honour
his commitment to life long learning and his efforts to improve the
world in
simple and practical ways.
