Songhees checkpoint for #TourDisaster. Nice work! Video: http://t.co/auvd0PX2QW CityOfVictoria @GVCC #yyj — Emergency Prep BC (@EmergencyPrepBC) July 26, 2014 I had the chance to take part in the Tour Disaster on Saturday, July 26th. It was a simulation / scavenger hunt / race that saw cyclists pedal around Victoria and hit 16 checkpoints. In theory, cyclists would have an easier time navigating obstacles around the city after a major disaster. A similar activity took place in Portland in mid July, called the Disaster Relief Trials, but it was also a showcase of cargo bikes.
