Tuesday B Ride | July 24, 6:30pm
Cancelled….This ride will take us east towards Dublin Line before heading north into Eden Mills. The group will work together on a steady rotation with shorter pulls to maintain speed and eliminate surges.

Tuesday Hammerfest | July 24, 6:30 pm
RIDE CANCELLED: T-storm warnings and radar indicate there is some activity heading our way. Ride at your own risk. It might rain tomorrow but it might not. So we’ll plan to head out to the familiar 8km square north of Guelph Lake for some challenging yet invigorating intervals (4-5). Usually it’s 2 squad pursuit depending…

Sunday July 22nd Long Ride, 9am CANCELLED
UPDATE: Ride cancelled due to rain. Let’s head South on what should be some very scenic roads to Waterdown and explore a couple categorized climbs. We’ll stop for refreshments at the Copper Kettle Cafe in downtown Waterdown, before making our way back along First Line back to Arkell. As Gabhan said in his post, it’s…

Sunday July 22nd medium ride | CANCELLED
Ride cancelled due to rain. Watch the Tour! New route, some gravel, then some rail trail, and a wee bit more gravel. Relaxed pace and quiet roads, this should be a good one 🙂

Thursday A/B – July 19th, 6:30pm
Should be a fun route with a little bit of everything. We’ll go West to some familiar, but not as frequently-visited roads, followed by a return to the East and then up the Col and the ‘Berg. In keeping with Stage 9 of the Tour earlier this week, there is gravel on this route. Two…

Social Ride: July 18, 6:30
Wednesday looks like it will be a great day weatherwise. So, I chose a slightly longer route to relax on (bring a light, just in case). It heads south on Watson and comes back on First Line.

Tuesday B Ride: July 17th 2018 – 6:30pm
This one will get us back in under 2 hours. Lots of time to get home before dark. We will work on a steady rotation with short pulls to keep the speed up and the effort consistent. Our goal is a fast and challenging ride without the big surges that drop riders.

Tuesday A Ride \ July 17, 6:30 pm
By request, up to Oustic, down to Rockwood and continuing along 5th Line with a finish on Hume then Watson Road.

Monday July 16th mountain bike ride
Update: Ride cancelled. Looks rainy and will be slipery -no use getting our drivetrains all mucked up considering all the nice riding weather we’ve had and the good forcast. We will meet at the parking area off of Victoria Road just South of the Eramosa river at 6:30 PM. The route will be an easy-paced…

Sunday “Medium” Ride to Dundas with alternate: July 15 @ 9 am
Looks like Sunday is going to be a gorgeous day with low wind and a lot of sun. Sunday’s “Medium” ride will be “medium paced”…and long in distance. A trip down to Grupetto in Dundas at a pace hovering around 28 to 30 kph. This will be a safe and friendly ride focusing on endurance. For…

Thursday A/B Rides July 12 | 6:30pm
EDIT #3. Scrap the Watson Twins. Forget about Mini-Loops. Construction and road closures have doomed my previous route. The new route takes us around Eden Mills and the surrounding back-roads and then home via the Watsonberg. Let’s ride!

Tuesday B Ride: July 10 – 6:30pm
This route follows the A Ride Mega Loops, so we can pick up anyone who may fall off the Hammerfest pace. Have a crack at the A ride if you like, we will be ready to pick you up, or watch you zoom by.

Tuesday A Ride \\ July 10, 6:30 pm
This is Megaloops. The idea is to ride the 21km (mega)loop twice and head for home. For fun, in the past, we would split the group in two at Arkell and send one squad off 30 seconds ahead of the other. One group tries to catch while the other attempts to stay away until the…
