The Can-Am was created in 2006 by the NFBC and Mary Alice Tock as a way to show off the Niagara Frontier not only for its great riding opportunities but also for its architecture, natural wonders, and friendly people. |
The 2008 CanAm was a terrific success. For 2009 we've kept what people said they liked best, added or imporved some things based on suggestions, and thrown in a few surprises for good measure.
One of the things new and improved this year is this web page. Use the links on the left to navigate. If you have questions or would just prefer to talk to a real person call Mike or Brenda at (716) 683-3961, or you can email us at info@CanAmRide.com
The CanAm Century Ride 2009' appears in the Cyclotour Guide Books Major Bicycling Events Calendar & the New York Bicycling Coalition Calendar of Major Bicycling Events.
