The 2025 road season begins!
I’m hoping that the weather holds and we get a passable day for riding this Sunday. Even better, sunshine! So far it’s looking good. I am waiting until noon to launch the ride so it will be warmer, 10-12 degrees.
We will be sticking close to home, making a big clockwise loop of Guelph and surrounding area. Nothing too crazy to start the season off. Bring money for a coffee stop in Hespeler and tail lights are a good idea.
Load the route on your bike computer if you have one, here’s how.
All rides need a minimum of 3 members signed up in order to officially run. If a ride has the required number of riders, but no Group Captain riding with them, that group ride will be considered cancelled. The group can decide among themselves to hold an ‘unofficial’ ride and follow the route. All group riders take it upon themselves to know the route and are responsible for their own safety.
Ride groups will be:
| Name | Distance | Average Speed |
|---|---|---|
| Grand Tour | Longer Ride | 29-31 kph |
| Petite Tour A | Medium Length Ride | 29-31 kph |
| Petite Tour B | Medium Length Ride | 27-29 kph |
Check here for weather cancellation posted no less than one hour before the ride begins
