  • Sunday Gravel Ride | Oct 2nd, 11:00 AM

    This is quite a Sunday for gravel riders – a lot of our regulars are at the Hardwood O-Cup CX race, the Bruce Gran Fondo, the Ganny Enduro … but for those of us staying local, it looks like a lovely, albeit cool, day and I look forward to sharing it with you! We’ll head…

  • CANCELLED: Sunday Gravel Ride | September 25th 11:00AM

    WEATHER UPDATE: Cancelled. Cold we can deal with, but cold and wet is just not pleasant. Things are looking a hair better, but it’s still raining and everything is saturated. No matter what, we will be gritty and wet, and therefore cold and miserable the whole ride. I hate cancelling, but you’re drive train and…

  • Sunday Gravel Ride | Sept 11 8:00am

    Once again, we’re heading out to the copious amount of gravel roads NE of Guelph and making our way into Hillsburgh. Its going to be a spectacular day, so make sure you sunscreen up and bring lots of water. According to RWGPS, this route is 2/3 gravel, which is a good thing, since this is…

  • Sunday Gravel Ride | Sept 4th 8AM

    RIDE IS ON! Its’ grey and overcast, but there is no rain according to the radar for sometime. It’s the Labour Day long weekend, or the ‘real’ start to the year as I like to call it. And if you were planning on avoiding driving amongst the crazed masses, this gravel ride might be just…

  • Wednesday Gravel Ride | August 31st 6:00pm

    We said we were done with these, but the crowd cried out for more… you asked for it, you got it! The limiting factor is that the sun sets at 7:57 pm… we can make that work! The weather is looking ideal for a gravel ride. Bringing lights is always a good idea. Load the…

  • Wednesday Gravel Ride | August 17th 6:00PM

    RIDE IS ON! WEATHER UPDATE: Weather is doing what we predicted just a bit slow. We may delay start for 15 minutes or so. LC It looks like a small storm cell should hit Guelph shortly after 5pm just past the deadline to cancel, but it looks clear behind that. There are no EC Weather…

  • CANCELLED: Wednesday Gravel Ride | August 3rd 6:30PM

    UPDATE: Ride is officially and completely cancelled… The TORNADO Warning that was just issued is the icing on the cake. We don’t recommend anyone going out. We do need the rain… pretty sure we don’t need the tornado. We’re going north! This route takes us through some old and familiar territory we haven’t visited for…

  • RIDE DELAYED: Sunday Gravel Ride | July 24th 8:00AM

    Last Update: New departure time is 12:30 PM from GYMC. Radar is all over the road. My Vancouver friends say that if you choose not to ride because of the threat of rain, you will never ride. And so we ride. First Update: Rain was forecast, but things seem to be changing (we really do…

  • Wednesday 20th, 2022. 6:30 PM GRAVEL RIDE!!!

    RIDE CANCELLED. Sorry everybody but the weather radar looks unfavorable and nobody wants to ride with half a kilogram stone dust in their shorts if it can be avoided. So the weather forecast is a bit iffy for this ride. Hopefully it works out but to be honest, we certainly could use the rain… The…

  • Sunday Gravel Ride | July 17 8:00am

    This is one of my personal favourite gravel rides that takes us on the winding trails of Kitchener/Waterloo. Its a whole lot of fun and there will be several times where you’ll say “I had no idea this was here!” or “NOW I know where we are!” We’ll start at the usual spot by the…

  • Wednesday Gravel Ride | July 6 6:30PM

    It’s looking like a great night for a gravel ride to head south west, out to Little Tract and back through the far south east – exotic! Bringing lights is always a good idea. Load the route on your bike computer if you have one, here’s how. Club kit is on sale again for only one…

  • CANCELLED – Sunday Gravel Ride | June 12th 8:00AM

    RIDE CANCELLED DUE TO RAIN. Maybe we can organize the ride for later in the day when it stops. Not a great looking forecast, but let’s hope for the best; 7AM go/no-go call at the latest. A clockwise loop with a stop at the Erin bakery at about half way. And a slightly longer route…
