  • Club Time Trial #4 v2- Wed Aug 24/16

    The weather is looking good for a 2nd attempt at TT #4 this Wednesday! First rider starts at 7pm. Same time, location, route, and details as last week. See this link for the particulars. Rumor has it Leslie Dart will be making an appearance 🙂

  • Tuesday A Hammerfest, August 23 – 6:00 pm!!

    Commit this route to memory, load it on a Garmin or tape it to the stem. It’s a tour of the southern roads, something a little different. Remember, we’re meeting at 6:00pm from now on.

  • 6:00 PM START – Tues B Ride – Aug 23

    Please note slight change in route. I added a few k’s. Dont forget we begin our rides at 6:00 pm as of Tuesday.  This is a shorter route being we are quickly losing daylight.  Heading south over the Col and then up 1st Line setting up for a quick run in to Arkel.

  • Sunday August 21st long and medium rides | 9am

    Rides are on. Another combined ride for this Sunday, with the longer ride heading to Paris, while the shorter route will turn east just before Safari Rd. Medium route:

  • August 18th Thursday A/B rides | 6:30pm

    Again, a slightly shorter due to sunlight, hopefully the weather cooperates. A 57k loop up around Eden Mills, and then a new road (with a touch of gravel) to head back through Badenoch. Bring lights!

  • Aug 17th – Wednesday Ride – 6:30

    RIDE CANCELLED DUE TO INCOMING RAIN. Another beautiful day out there! We’ll do a classic route through Eden Mills and over to Fourth Line. In the last few kilometers everyone can test their mettle on the Watsonberg climb after which we can regroup at the top and cruise in to Arkell. Please remember to stay…

  • Club Time Trial #4 – Wed Aug 17/16

    RIDE CANCELLED DUE TO INCOMING RAIN AND SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH. Please add a comment below if you are interested in having the TT rescheduled for next Wednesday. Good last chance prep for Provincials next weekend! The final TT of our 4 event time trial series is this week, with first rider starting at 7:00pm! New…

  • Tuesday Hammerfest A Ride, Aug 16, 6:30pm

    Looks like a heavy rain event coming in tomorrow. But if the ride is a go this is our route. Maybe we’ll see the B ride along the way.

  • Tuesday B ride August 16th | 6:30pm

    Ride is on. Fun route, with the screaming descent down 6th line. The forecast looks pretty bad (and hey, we need the rain), but we’ll see how it pans out. Keep in mind the Wednesday night TT this week, the last one of the year!

  • Sunday Long Ride | August 14, 9:00am

    I’ve pulled some strings and managed to secure some nice riding weather for Sunday morning. Lets not waste this window of opportunity and head down to Dundas for a quick coffee stop, back up Sydenham and return through Kilbride.

  • Sunday Medium Ride | Aug 14th 9:00 AM

    The corn is high and the peaches are ripe. It’s hot and humid and the cicadas are singing… August in Ontario. Some things are quintessential, like this 76 km Fergus-Elora Sunday morning coffee loop. And we’ll be crossing the covered bridge at West Montrose (someone please open a cafe here!). EC is currently predicting 19…

  • August 11th, Thursday A/B rides | 6:30PM

    **Club ride cancelled due to heat. Some folks may show up for a non-club ride.

  • Wednesday Ride | Aug 10 06:30 PM

    Looks like another really warm one.  We’ll go North.  We’ll go single file on Hwy 124 and again through Rockwood.  I just want to remind everyone that this is a beginners ride averaging 25 to 28 Kmh and no drop.  If people want to give it going up a hill, that’s fine but we will slow…

  • Tuesday B Ride, August 9 6:30 pm

    This is my first Tuesday B ride but I expect you all have a handle on how this works. Average speed is 34 km/h so it’s fast but not insane. Insane has its place but not on this ride. It’s a no-drop so we’ll keep an eye out. After the Watsonberg you can ride it…

  • Tuesday A Aug 9th hammerfest | 6:30pm

    Slightly shorter route due to the sun slowly dying. We’ll do a loop up and through Elora and Fergus, and end up with the sun setting behind us. Please respect all stop signs, especially through the populated areas!

  • Sunday August 7, @9am medium/long combined

    The two groups will head out towards Eden Mills and travel through Rockwood prior to descending 6th Line. At Campbellville Road the like minded riders will separate for either an enjoyable espresso at the flying monkey or take on a hill climbing challenge. Long riders will turn left at Campbellville Road and take on an…
