Sunday June 17 Medium Ride | 9am
It is going to be a warm one so we will keep the distance close to 80km and target to be done around 12:30pm so that everyone can enjoy the afternoon of Father’s Day. We are heading north and then southwest to Hespeler. We will have a short stop in Hespeler for refreshments and then…

Thursday A/B Ride | June 14, 6:30pm
Could be a breezy one this evening, so lets work on our paceline skills. Steady and frequent rotation keeps things smooth and safe! Days are still getting longer but the ride home from Arkell can get dark. Please remember to to have adequate lighting!

Wednesday Ride: June 13
RIDE CANCELLED. The forecast suggests that the roads might be dry by 6:30 and the average wind speed might be tolerable by 7:30 but the gusts will make any group ride less social than it should be. The plan is to ride through some quiet places, south on Fourth and back up Watson. It could…

Tuesday B Ride | 6:30 pm, June 12
I don’t think we’ve headed out to scenic Dublin Line yet this year. Time for a visit.

June “try-a-ride” rescheduled to the 20th
Rescheduled due to rain on the 13th. The OCA allows non-members to participate in one club activity per year, as a chance to try out a club and group riding. We’re holding a ‘try-a-ride’ session on June 20th, departing the library at 6:30pm (please be early), and possibly joining up with the regular club ride. If you’ve…

Tuesday A Hammerfest – June 12, 6:30 pm
Kind of like Thursday’s ride but a little longer with some added features. Should get the pulse rate up. For an extended period. But ya, looking like a beautiful night with perhaps a lingering east wind. Don’t miss it. Or do, it’s fine, suit yourself.

Sunday June 10th long ride | 9am
Looks like another great Sunday forecast! Let’s head east, with a stop at Belfountain, and then a trip to Thatcher’s Farms (coincidentally a club sponsor) possibly for some sort of grilled food? Should be a good one 🙂

Sunday Medium Distance to Limehouse – 9AM
So I took on a Sunday ride and was hoping to head down to Paris but looking at the forecast, it does not look like the wind will cooperate. Seeing that it will be easterly winds, I thought it best to head east first and then turn around with the wind at our back. Most…

Saturday June 9th 9am – Gravel Ride
Well, looks like the weather may actually cooperate this time! A nice 80km loop from the library back downtown exploring the gravel roads up to Fergus, the rail trail over to Elora (with a coffee stop, if so desired!), and then the gravel roads and the G2G rail trail back into Guelph. Should be a…

Thursday A/B Ride, June 7 – 6:30pm
Its Thursday, lets ride bikes! Its also election day so be prepared for possibly some busier spots on the way to the ride (I believe there is a polling station on Watson, but not at the library at least).

Wednesday Social Ride 6:30pm
Looks like the weather is going to be much better for Wednesday’s Social Ride. Please keep in mind that this is a recreational ride with an expected pace of 28 km/h average. It is a no drop ride but, according to our Ride Description page you must be able to ride up to 2 hours,…

Tuesday A Hammerfest – June 5, 6:30 pm
Yes, into a mighty headwind rewarded by a scorching return. That likely describes tomorrow’s hammerfest conditions. It’s a quick trip one town west.

Tuesday B Ride, June 5th – 6:30pm
The forecast says the weather will be on the cool side so lets do a simple route that will keep us warm. We should be home in plenty of time before dark but lights are always a great idea. Rather then stopping after we crest 6th line where the mosquitoes are on the prowl, if…

Sunday Medium I June 3rd 2018 I 9:00am
The route is 75km from the start at the library to the finish in Arkell. The map shows it as being longer due to some duplications between Arkell and the Library at the end. This route will get us back by noon and that is when the rain is supposed to start! If the weather…
