  • Thursday May 4th A and B ride 6:30 PM

    Ride is officially cancelled (sad tuba sound). On the bright side, everybody can now catch up on their favorite podcasts while on the trainer… I don’t think I’ve ever seen a weather forecast that is less inviting for a club ride… Anyway, I’ll make the final call at 5 PM. On the route it’s probably…

    Wednesday’s ride is relatively short this time: it dips into “Hamilton” for a couple of km. and has some interesting hills. Remember: this will be the first time this year using the summer start time: 6:30. Hopefully, the temperature will also be summer-like. Please bring lights and your membership card, just in case.
