Thursday Intermediate Road Ride | May 23 6:30 PM
A beautiful May evening, quiet roads and good company… it doesn’t get any better than this. I’m going to steal borrow Oliver’s nice routes from a few weeks ago. Bringing lights is always a good idea.

Thursday Advanced Road Ride | May 23, 6:30PM
This Thursday, instead of one large loop, I have put together a series of right turning loops in the Nassagawaya area south of Rockwood. I figure, why not mix it up a bit.

Women Only Ride | May 22, 6:30PM
Ride is ON! Officially unoffical because of EC’s overzealous T-storm watch. We’ve debated about the wind, but let’s tough it out and see how she goes! Single file on the busier roads. With the Giro being a bit of snooze (and our Velogames not looking so great), let’s go for a ride instead! The Women’s…

Sunday Road Tours | May 19, 8:00 am
A couple options this long weekend. The longer route is going to climb the Kelso escarpment a couple times, along with a few other lumps, so if you want some vertical training please join us. However, if that’s not your thing then there is a flatter, slightly shorter, route on offer also. Bring money for…

Thursday Intermediate Road Ride | May 16 6:30PM
While the early-season club riding has been pretty good thus far, I don’t think I’ve been on a route that take us up the Col du Watson. Apparently, a section of Watson Road is going to be closed for a good portion of the summer while they repave it and while that’s ultimately a good…
