The ride is offically canceled. It seems that between the weather and my general popularity that I am the only person to have signed up for the ride. Not the way we would have wanted the last official club ride of the year to go but thats life. Thank you all for such a great…

CANCELLED Sunday Gravel Ride | October 31st, 11:00 am
RIDE CANCELLED. We’ll try again next week and hope for better conditions. It’s going to be a cold, wet, mucky and windy all Hallows Eve, Hallowe’en or Halloween (your spelling preference) fall colour ride. Weather is predicted to be chilly, windy and wet – around 8 degrees at the start. Brrr…. costumes are mandatory (ok,…

KWCX Race Report Oct 24, 2021
It has been quite some time since most of us have participated in mass start bicycle events. Fortunately for a group of our club members, they didn’t have to go far to try it out again. Waterloo Cycling Club put on a stellar cyclocross event this past weekend and the weather cooperated nicely. The KWCX…

Sunday Road Ride | October 24th @ 11:00 am
Looks likely to be a pretty chilly one with the potential for some wind so make sure to dress appropriately. Some tried and true roads with a few new ones that aim to please. No café stop on this route, but a couple of opportunities to fill bottles or grab a cheeky Mars bar… The…

Sunday October 17th Road Ride 11 AM at the Library.
Gonna try this route again but the weather isn’t looking too promising. Final decision will be made at 10 AM on Sunday. This will be a fairly leisurely roll through the countryside North of Belwood up to Grand Valley. No Huge hills but it could be windy. We can make a food / water /…

KWCX Sunday October 24th
Lady’s and Gentlemen, We have decided not to run a gravel ride on Sunday October 24th and instead encourage our SRCC gravel enthusiasts to join in the Cyclocross fun in Kitchener with our good friends and hosts Waterloo Cycling Club at the KWCX held at Bingeman Park. All you need is a OCA citizen’s permit…

Sunday Gravel Ride – Oct. 17, 11:00am
Weather is looking cool, and possibly rainy for this weekend. The ride start will officially be at 11:00am, to account for some warmer weather and hopefully to miss any rain that comes overnight. Dress appropriately and the worst that will happen is that you’ll have a cool story about an awesome adventure. There will be…

Sunday Gravel Ride | October 10th, 9:00 am
Weather prediction is warm. Should be around 17 degrees at 9 am. This ride is a wee bit shorter to allow for the long weekend commitments people need to get back for. We should easily be back by noon. There will be a halfway stop at the Lost & Found Cafe in Elora. Be sure…

Sunday Oct 10th road rides | 11am start
The long term forecast looks decent, 21 degrees and overcast. Perfect 🙂 We’ll head to Dundas to check out the resurgence of Cafe Domestique 2.0, now located at King and Foundy St: This cafe has always been a great supporter of local cycling, so let’s give back! This ride is open to SRCC members only. If…

Sunday Gravel Ride | Oct 3 @ 9:00am
RIDE CANCELLED: Yeah, big surprise. Hopefully, everyone got out yesterday when the weather was glorious. As I post this, the weather for this Sunday is looking grim, so this is not likely going to happen. Just in case, here’s this weekend’s combined gravel ride. We’re supposed to be starting at 11AM this time of year…

Sunday September 19th Combined Gravel Ride 9 AM
This ride continues on the theme started last week – farms, wind turbines and…. more farms! Anyway, we’ll head up Jones Baseline as far as we can and then do a tour of some more roads north of Belwood. Another stop for butter tarts followed by a slightly circuitous way home – and no bike…

The official Sunday road ride is taking this week off as it begins its taper towards next week’s Big 100 (Sign up here. It is going to be epic…). For those of you who would still like to head out on what promises to be a nice day for riding, here’s a suggested route that…

Sunday Road Ride | Sept 12 @ 8:00am
UPDATE: Ride is on. There is a chance of light rain. This is a recreational “Century Ride” (27 kph average speed) with an extended “Climber’s Edition” at pace (30 kph average speed). Both versions include a coffee/butter tart stop in Carlisle, but who will arrive first? Care to place a wager? If you haven’t done…

Huh, This is tricky but I think I’ll call it and say the ride is ON. We might have light rain so maybe bring a rain jacket. UPDATE: Because the weather forecast iffy, the final call will be made at 7AM on Sunday. Here is a scenic route to explore the countryside around Belwood Reservoir.…

Thursday Advanced Rides | September 9th @ 6:00 pm
*** Post ride Gathering at Fixed Gear Brewing (20 Alma St) *** It will be chilly for this ride. Bring your warm kit and blinky lights! Sunset is 7:45. I have shamelessly borrowed Mathew’s route from last week and I shortened the A & B/C rides. If time is really an issue we can cut…
