Epidemiologist Rides a Bike
By now, some of you may have heard of the Dutch/Belgian study whose authors recommended that fast runners maintain at least 10 m distance and fast cyclists maintain at least 20 m distance from others in their “slipstream”. It received a lot of media attention, enough that runners and cyclists felt a bit demonized. The…

This route is called the Fall Colours Tour so an appropriate one for this time of year. Not too long but long enough to enjoy one of the nicer days we are likely to see for a while. There is a stop at the Flying Monkey in Campbellville.

Sunday October 6th, 11:00 am B/C Ride
Sorry folks, I have to cancel this ride since I can’t make it and there’s nobody available to cover for me. Also, the weather forcast is middling at best. However, if you want to meet up and do an informal DIY ride, feel free. Note that with the cool weather ride start times are now…

Sunday B Ride – September 29th – 9:00am Start
Third time lucky? We have tried to run this route twice this month only to be weathered out. Let’s hope this time works. We are now moving the start time to 9 am to allow for a few extra precious degrees of warmth when we roll out! Nice scenic route through Acton, Glen Williams, and…

Sunday 09/29 C Ride – 9am
A variation on the classic Fergus-Elora loop – let’s go clockwise! We’ll head to Maryhill first, then to Elora, where we can stop for a coffee if we wish, then off to Fergus and back home. A short gravel section on Jones Baseline, but it’s a beautiful, quiet road that shouldn’t be missed! Official ride…

Sunday A & B Ride – September 15th – 9:00am Start
The Weather is not looking good. Rain is coming and we will be wet and cold by 11am with some more rain to follow. At least this is what the radar is predicting. I am making the call to cancel the ride. However, if it looks like it will clear up for the afternoon check…
