WE ARE A GO! LOOKS LIKE SOME LIGHT RAIN POSSIBLE EARLY ON BUT GOING TO GAMBLE AND GIVE IT A GO. THROW THOSE LAYERS ON AND LETS HAVE SOME FUN! Thanksgiving weekend around town ramble! I’m hoping that this will allow folks the opportunity to get in a fun ride and to duck out when turkey calls! Some familiar trails and hopefully something new, this route will cover some of the best inner city trails Guelph has to offer and allow us to enjoy the autumn splendor. The forecast is not looking great, but I’m keeping my fingers crossed and will only cancel if it’s looking terrible (I’ll have two turkey dinners in me to burn!). Please note the early 9am start. It may be a little chilly but I’m hoping the early start will allow more people to join and still make later commitments. Check back Sunday morning for a final call on the weather.
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.
