Ken Trenholm was interviewed on CBC by Bruce Rainnie and was surrounded by Ben Kennedy, Harvey Chandler, Alysha Trenholm, Andrew Trivett, and Simon Trivett. Look at how calm Ken responded when Bruce called Ken by the name of Ben throughout the entire interview.

2008
Bob Stanley did it again. Our 2008 edition features several videos. This year Bob was a rider.
Bob also captured a special edition video for Robin Williams, as it was her birthday on BFBC Day 2008. Having everyone sing Happy Birthday to her at the start was one of the highlights of the year indeed.
Bob also captured his individual journey on the bicycle as he made his own unique bike cam. You can almost hear his heart beating as he takes in each breath. Whata guy!

Bob Stanley's 10 minute video has arrived! Bob has been working night and day after the event to get this video to the public. This is the video that will be shown at Fringe Fest in September at Confederation Centre for the Arts. It will be large as life on the big screen. The quality is reduced on YouTube but the experience will be incredible at Confed Centre. Here is Bob's short of the event.
We were fortunate to have had exposure on CBC Television news, Compass. They caught up to me on Friday, August 3, the day before the event. Check out the bags under my eyes -- I never realized what I looked like the days before the event with all the last minute things that need to be done. Compass is the one place you can count on all Islanders being between 6 and 7 pm. You can see their story below on the event:
If you are interested in what it really is like to bike across P.E.I. in one day, take the next five minutes and watch our BFBC Video. Much thanks to Bob Stanley who produced this video and all the riders and volunteers who make organizing the event so much worthwhile.
There are no questions or details too small. We have the answers to many of your questions. We even have the answers to questions you have not asked (yet). And, if we don't have the answer, we will make one up very quickly and post it online to share. View our BFBC Rider Handbook.
