MS Bike Chilliwack Committee - Rest Stop Coordinator

The 2026 MS Bike - Chilliwack is back on Saturday, July 11 and Sunday, July 12, 2026. The ride starts and ends at Chilliwack Heritage Park (44140 Luckakuck Way, Chilliwack, BC), with several rest stops along the way.

As part of the MS Bike Committee, you will plan and execute an inclusive, engaging event to connect and empower the MS community in your region. MS impacts all Canadians, which is why we urge people to move forward together at MS Bike and help build awareness for the disease, raising much needed funds to allow us to continue to support people affected by MS. This is a great opportunity to make an impact in your community using your talent and time!
