August 26th – Sunday Long and Medium Rides – 9am Start
It’s off to beautiful Belfountain for the long ride. Sunny skies, the wind at our backs, coffee halfway through. What better way to spend a Sunday morning? The Medium ride can perhaps cut down 9th line just before Erin for a great ride, with a stop in Erin if you like. I put this route…

Thursday A/B Rides Aug. 25, 6:00pm
Ride Cancelled: this may clear up a little but more rain appears to be coming at 7:00pm. If you are determined to ride, north may be your best bet. Or you could just skip it and head to the Wooly for a nice refreshing pint. Looks like rain coming our way. A go/no-go call will…

Wednesday August 24th ride | 6PM
Note the earlier 6:00PM start! A nice route down Watson and back up Victoria. Bring lights just in case.

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…

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…

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…
