Update: 5:25 P.M. The GCC TAM Ride has been officially cancelled!
Canada’s Air Quality Health Index is currently at 8 out 10 locally. It is recommended that athletic and sporting activities be rescheduled with an AQHI of 7 out of 10.
This sucks, we know. However, there is nothing stopping those of you who wish to continue with an unofficial ride at your own risk after gathering at the usual place and time.
The GCC June Social at Fixed Gear Canteen on the patio, starting at 8:45PM, will proceed no matter how smoky the air gets!
NEW ROUTES!
These are the Mid Season Routes for the TAM Ride. They will remain the same for several weeks giving riders an opportunity to see how they progress in fitness week-over-week. Bringing lights is always a good idea. Especially this early in the season.
Load the route on your bike computer if you have one, here’s how.
Disclaimer: Depending on rider turn out, some Speed Groups may have to be combined.
