Thursday Advanced Road Ride | August 4th, 6:30 pm

The radar is clear, and the ride is on! Roads may be a bit damp, but you were planning to wash your bike tomorrow anyway, right? We’ll head out to scenic Dublin Line tonight, with the R1 group getting an extra loop around Eden Mills. Bringing lights is always a good idea. **Route update: we’ll detour down to SR 10 to avoid construction on SR 15, adding a short gravel section**

Thursday Advanced Road Ride | July 28, 6:30 pm

The advanced groups head out to Maryhill tonight, and if the forecast holds we should have a nice tailwind back into town. The routes are on the long side, but in the unlikely (!?!) event of mechanicals, etc., the rides can be shortened at any point after Chilligo Rd. There is one extended gravel section just before we get to Maryhill. The route turns right at Speedvale and Elmira to avoid a road closure on Speedvale. The official ride ends suspiciously close to Fixed Gear. Bringing lights is always a good idea.

Tuesday All Members Ride | June 21st 6:30PM

The weather is looking rather warm for the longest day of the year (yeah, yeah, they are all the same length, but you know what we mean). R1 may have some adjustments, talk to the prez, he has some good ideas!

We are in the middle of the Mid Season Routes for the TAM Ride. They are a bit longer now the sun is setting later. Routes are also a bit more challenging with a few more hills. 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.
