***UPDATE*** – Apologies for late notice. Not enough riders signed up for this one and it’s not looking like the greatest weather for a long one. This ride is officially CANCELLED, but for those who remain signed up, feel free to head out on your own for an unofficial road ride.
This Sunday the Grand Tour and medium option will start from the Guelph YMCA.
We’ll plan to head SW to Seaton Road. The Grand Tour will continue toward Glen Morris with a little new road to explore (well … new to me). Both routes will head back home up Foreman and offer a refuel stop at the 97 Station (tarts are great, but hope you’re not craving a Cuppa Joe – may wanna go for a cold fill here lol). The route continues toward home via Gore Rd and the Berg. We’ll officially end the ride in Arkell, but the route length includes heading back into Guelph to The Boathouse. Bring money for a coffee stop and tail lights are a good idea.
PS .. the sign-up link defaults to the Library, but we are meeting/starting from the Guelph Y.
Load the route on your bike computer if you have one, here’s how.
All rides need a minimum of 3 members signed up in order to officially run. If a ride has the required number of riders, but no Group Captain riding with them, that group ride will be considered cancelled. The group can decide among themselves to hold an ‘unofficial’ ride and follow the route. All group riders take it upon themselves to know the route and are responsible for their own safety.

Name | Distance | Average Speed |
---|---|---|
Grand Tour | Longer Ride | 29-31 kph |
Tour A | Medium Length Ride | 29-31 kph |
