LAST Wednesday Social Ride: Sept 8th, 6:00 pm
Come one come all to the last Wednesday evening club ride of 2021! The days are getting shorter, and so must the routes, but there is still plenty of light to get us home. Let’s end the season with cohesive riding and good communication (are you tired of hearing this yet?). There are three pace…

RIDE CANCELLED. Sept 7th, 6:00pm
RIDE CANCELLED. The rain might hit us as early as 7:15, and it’s going to be quite the downpour. That will be super dangerous if we’re out on the road, even coming back into town. An unofficial ride will depart at 6pm though, if you’re feeling lucky. Tuesday is the night of the week that…

Sunday Gravel Ride | Sept 5, 2021 @ 8:00am
RIDE IS ON!!! It looks kind of dark right now, but it’s going to be a great day for riding! And now for something a little different….. SRCC road riders are intimately familiar with the paved roads south and east of Guelph in the Halton region. However, just off the beaten track are a cornucopia…

Sunday Road Ride | Sept 5th @ 8:00am
Let’s make this one a Fritter run to the Copper Kettle in Waterdown. We’ll follow the rest stop with a nice Snake Rd descent and King Rd climb (exploring). We’ll come back through Kilbride and then make our way home up the usual roads. Ride starts at the east end library and ends near downtown…

Thursday Advanced Rides | September 2nd @ 6:00 pm
While the calendar page might have turned and arm warmers become more and more of a thing we still have enough daylight to squeeze in some weekday fun! At least for now… Boo. This southerly route carries on the now-familiar “avoid the chipseal” theme and as a special gift to those riding tonight we go…

Wednesday Intermediate Ride A, B, & C | September 1st, 6:00PM
Just a few more weeknight rides left this season! Come out and enjoy the slightly cooler weather. This week’s social ride will take us clockwise on some classic roads. As usual, we will have a slightly longer route for the A group and a slightly shorter route for the B/C group to get everyone back…

2nd Last Tuesday All-Members Ride of 2021!! August 31st, 6:00pm
This week the weather looks great! Next week… who knows? POST RIDE SOCIAL! Only two TAM rides left this season. After the ride, we will be heading over to our awesome sponsor Fixed Gear Brewing (at the Alma St. location) for some post ride bevies and food. Come dine, partake and celebrate this year of…

RIDE CANCELLED Thursday advanced ride: August 26, 6:00 pm
A severe thunderstorm watch for tonight means that the official club ride cannot run. However, the radar currently looks clear, so anyone who wants to ride unofficially (no ride leaders or strict pace groups) can meet at the library for 6:00 pm. This route gives us a little taste of both north and south roads…

Tuesday All-Members Ride, August 24th, 6:00pm
BEER and PIZZA! Now that I have your attention, it is time to celebrate the year of riding that almost wasn’t, but was. After each of our last three Tuesday rides we will be heading to our wonderful sponsor Fixed Gear Brewing on Alma St. for some post ride beverages and maybe pizza. Why not…

Sunday 08/22 Road, 8:00am
As long as the rain holds off, it should be a great (but hot) day for riding bikes! We’ll go on an adventure to explore the Escarpment south of us, before returning up some familiar roads. Bring lots of water, as it’s going to be hot! We have two options for stops: firstly at the…

Sunday Gravel Ride | Aug 22nd, 8:00 am
This one is called Kissing Flormira Wilson for obvious reasons. It was rained out a month ago, but the forecast is looking favourable this time. If you’ve never been around the Floradale reservoir you’re in for a treat. We also cut through Edna and Daniel Martin’s Mennonite Maple Syrup farm with permission. Sorry, no Sunday…

Thursday Advanced Rides | August 19th @ 6:00 pm
Note that start time is now 6:00 PM thanks to the unfortunate fact that our days are getting shorter at an ever increasing rate. We should look at the bright side of things. If we lived in the tropics, we’d never be able to ride past 6/7pm. So, there’s that. The forecast is calling for…

Wednesday 08/18 Intermediate Social Ride, 6:00pm
New start time alert! Rides have moved to a 6pm start as daylight slowly fades away (booooo…). Looks like we may have a good chance of riding in clear weather tomorrow evening. Final call regarding the weather will be made no later than 5:00pm. This week we will have a slightly longer route for the…

Tuesday All-Members Ride, August 17th, 6:00pm
New start time alert! 6:00pm! Days are getting shorter and that means rides are shifting to 6:00pm for the rest of the year. Otherwise you’re in for the same TAM ride you’ve come to enjoy, the night of the week that all members can find a speed group they enjoy riding with! The route remains…

Sunday Gravel Ride | August 15, 2021
And now for something completely different. Well, not really, just leaning toward more singletrack 🙂 We’re doing a loop of Smith tract as a warm up, so bring your skills! Otherwise it’s some new roads and trails out near Acton, and a loop back through Hilton Falls. Should be perfect weather! Bakery stop in Acton…
