We’re starting and finishing at club sponsor Fixed Gear Brewing on Alma Street. This allows for a beautiful Sunday afternoon lunch for those hungry and thirsty after a long ride!
Cool overnight temperatures will make for a lovely morning ride to have us back by lunch.
If you’ve never been around the Floradale reservoir you’re in for a treat. We also cut through Edna and Daniel Martin’s Mennonite Maple Syrup farm with permission. Sorry, no Sunday sales. Too bad, a little syrup in your water = yum & zip)!
We will be taking a snack stop at halfway in Elmira at the ‘Local Renaissance’ cafe or the Circle K convenience store across the road. Bring cash/card for that. Tail lights are a good idea.
The route will take us right to club sponsor Fixed Gear Brewing on Alma street for a beautiful Sunday afternoon lunch!
