It is unfortunate but we look forward to 2022!
Fall Back Friday - to the PoCo Grand Prix of 2019. Today would have been another year in the books but due to COVID-19 we'll lean on the memories like this video. In celebration of what would have been PGP 2020, let's take out our bikes and take a ride around the Traboulay Trail. It connects parks, public spaces & commercial areas as you ride on through. Plenty of spots to stop along the way. Enjoy the fresh air and the ride! We'll be back! BC Superweek
The City of Port Coquitlam fully supports this decision as we pride ourselves as a sport and festival community and the PoCo Grand Prix is a key part of building community spirit. However our top concern is ensuring the health and safety of our residents, event organizers, sponsors, volunteers and the athletes. See you next year!
Thank you to all of our sponsors who came out to our meet and greet for the PoCo Grand Prix. We look forward to working with you and we thank you for your tremendous support in making this such a great event! Thank you also to Clair Cameron, with the InstaFund Team who spoke about the Grand Prix. See you July 17, 2020.
Wooohoooo Port Coquitlam! What a Friday it was for the PoCo Grand Prix. We had such a great turnout once again and everyone had such a great time. A round of applause to our volunteers, sponsors and participants who made this such a great successful day. Hat tip to all our PoCo residents who came down and made the PoCo Grand Prix such a fun event as always. We had folks from all over visiting our small town and you turned it up the charm for them! Everyone is still talking a...bout it. We love hearing all of the great feedback and we look forward to seeing you again next year for our 5th annual event which will be even bigger! Cant wait!
