Cycle for Survivors 2025

Cycle for Survivors is back: Your ride and  impact, starts now!

Saturday, September 27, 2025

Rides start and end at Fenlands Banff Recreation Centre, 100 Mt Norquay Rd #2F, Banff

Our much-loved Cycle Therapy ride has a brand-new name: Cycle for Survivors. The name has changed, but the heart of the ride remains the same: a passionate community coming together in support of brain injury survivors and their lifelong journey of recovery.

This year, our event is getting a major glow-up, thanks to the unstoppable energy of ARBI’s NextGen Leadership Cohort – a group of young changemakers bringing fresh vision, energy, creativity, and purpose to every detail of this year’s ride. (insert photo of NextGen Leadership cohort)

What’s New for 2025?

  • Three inspiring routes, each named in honour of an incredible ARBI-connected individual whose story reminds us why we ride.
  • New location! All rides will start and finish at the beautiful Fenland Centre in Banff, with a wrap-up party to celebrate our community of riders, survivors, supporters, and changemakers.
  • A cause that continues to matter deeply: making life better for brain injury survivors and their families.

Choose your own adventure! Three rides to make your impact.

Whether you’re a seasoned cyclist or just starting out, Cycle for Survivors offers three inspiring route options, each named in honour of a remarkable individual whose journey reflects the strength, hope, and community spirit that fuel this event.

Stronger Together: Mel’s Ride (13.7 km round trip) reminds us of the resilience found in unity and the unwavering spirit of Mel Laine, ARBI’s “first client” – a fighter who never gave up.

Ross’ Legacy Loop (48.75 km round trip) celebrates Ross Gilker’s leadership and lasting impact, encouraging us to ride in tribute to those who’ve paved the way for others.

Jim’s Journey (113.76 km round trip) invites riders to reflect on the road to recovery, one of courage, healing, and personal transformation championed by Jim Saunders.
