Sunday Gravel Ride | July 28 8:00AM

NOTE: Minor route change from original posting.

Fields are golden and green and Sunday is looking to be a beautiful day for some gravel! After a few opening kilometers on pavement to warm up we’ll be treated to some of finest rolling gravel roads around, as we pass by the outskirts of Erin on our way to Hillsburgh for a refueling stop at the Foodland. Bring plenty of fluids and some extra snacks in case the heat or hills catch up with you.

There is an optional 78k alternative for G2/3/4. When you sign up, if you can, please indicate which distance you’re thinking of doing, so people can makes plans accordingly.

Bring money for a coffee stop. Tail lights are a good idea.

Load the route on your bike computer if you have one, here’s how.
