They say patience is a virtue, and if you are an avid fan of spring flowers and blossom viewing, this year’s unusually long, cold, snowy winter has certainly tested your patience.

Grease the chain, grab your helmet and mark your calendars – it’s time to Bike the Blossoms! As part of the 2016 Cherry Blossom Festival, and in partnership with Velapalooza, Vancouver is hosting Bike the Blossoms, a community ride and celebration of all things spring. I intend to be there with “bells on!” Over the years, blossom viewing has become an art form and I must applaud Vancouverites on their creativity! We illuminate the blossoms, we paint pictures of them, photograph them, walk under them, sing about them, talk about them, display them on barges and even toss a few in our salads. Only our imaginations limit our ability to celebrate our magnificent, flowering cherry trees.
