Sunday Gravel Ride | August 7th 8:00am
It’s going to be a warm one, so it’ll be on the slightly shorter side. A quick trip through the GORBA trails (easy ones) on the way up to Elora. Coffee (or iced coffee) there, and then hopefully some shade on the Kissingbridge trail. Load the route on your bike computer if you have one, here’s…

Sunday Combined Ride 8 AM: All hail the mighty Dar
Dar’s Delights has been a staple in the metropolis of Moffat since I can remember. Hers is a unique combination, to say the least: fine baked goods – the doughnuts are simply outstanding – paired with a personality so curmudgeonly it borders on parody. And don’t ask to use the bathroom unless you want to…

UPDATE: Ride is officially and completely cancelled… The TORNADO Warning that was just issued is the icing on the cake. We don’t recommend anyone going out.

Sunday Longer & Faster Road Ride | July 31, 2022: 8:00 am
Let’s try this again! Great weather in the forecast and an even better route. We’ll cover a few of the same roads from this Thursday’s ride, but in the opposite direction, which basically means they’re completely different roads… It’s a classic for a reason! A beautiful loop through Fergus, Elora, and Hespeler, featuring the Kissing…

Thursday Intermediate Road Ride | July 28 6:30
Another Thursday ride, another thunderstorm risk. However, as an unofficial GCC meteorologist, I am willing to bet this ride will go ahead. If you’ve been riding R4 and have been feeling inspired to surge away from the group, please mosey on over to R3, where you can put that extra energy to excellent use (see…

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…
