Tuesday B Ride – May 1st 2017 – 6:30pm Start
My favourite route. Scenic and a bit of everything. ~50km from start to the finish at Arkell and Watson.

Tuesday A Ride | May 1, 6:30 pm
The rides are at 6:30 now for a while, next few months. Here’s a challenging route ending by Guelph Lake.

Sunday Combined Ride April 29, 11:00 AM
Well it’s a bit warmer so lets meander through the countryside around Erin and Hillsburg. Food stop will be in Hillsburg. Does this route have hills? Yep a few big ones on sideroad 17, those that want can go all out on them but we will all regroup at the stop sign at the end…

Thursday A/B – April 26th, 6:00pm + Club Social at The Wooly
Will the weather actually hold out and grant us an official club ride this week? It’s looking like it will! Something of a remix of a classic route this week. Down Watson, across 36 and 15, up 4th line, and then a dash through Eden Mills and up the Wellington 29 rise before we come…

Tuesday A Ride | April 24, 6:00 pm
Ride is on although there may be moisture at some point. If you have a rain jacket, stick it in your jersey and cross your fingers. Spring has sprung. We should have a pleasant hammerfest on our hands tomorrow. Same route we didn’t do last week.

RIDE CANCELLED April 24th Tuesday B ride | 6:00pm start
Ride cancelled. Unfortunately, radar shows rain heading our way. The B group will head down First Line to scenic Side Road 3, then back up Watson. We’ll stay together at a 30-32 km/h pace, at least until Watsonberg. If it looks like rain, the call will be made by 5 pm.

Sunday A/B Ride | Sunday April 22nd, 11:00am
Fingers crossed we could actually have the first Sunday ride of the year! I’ve planned a scenic route along the escarpment to kick it off. For anyone who’s still feeling a bit of the winter season in the legs there is a convenient option to turn back at 50km making it a still long but…

Thursday April 18th A/B – 6:00 pm RIDE CANCELLED
It is not looking promising for Thursday being around 1 degree feeling like -5 and mildly windy. Most likely it will be cancelled but the weekend looks very promising.

Tuesday A Ride April 17, 6:00 pm
Ride Cancelled. The likelihood of encountering icy, treacherous conditions is too high. Barring an unlikely and miraculous weather transformation considering there is snow in the forecast, tomorrow’s ride will be cancelled. Here’s a route we can recycle next Tuesday if necessary. In the meantime you can ruminate on this and consider Aaron’s idea for tomorrow.

Tuesday B April 17 – 6:00PM
Outdoor ride cancelled. I am going to go out on a limb and predict that an official ride on Tuesday will not occur. If the weather really swings around for the better I will post a real route. For now I will suggest some indoor suffering on the trainer; hammer away on Zwift or even…

Saturday Gravel Ride – 11:00am
RIDE CANCELLED. -10 windchill and freezing rain do not a good ride make. First gravel ride of the year! Heading south to explore and grind some gravel on some familiar and not-so-familiar roads. A gravel/cyclocross bike would be perfect for these rides, but any drop-bar bike will do! Find some wider tires, lower your pressure,…

Thursday April 12th A/B rides | 6pm
It looks like it will be windy, but the rain may hold off and the temperature is edging upwards. We’ll take it!! The route has a few hills and a convenient bail-out point coming back on Hume at Watson if your winter legs are complaining. The finishing circuit loops down to the Watsonberg to allow…
