Sunday Road Tours | July 23 8 AM
All my scheduled ride leads have been rained out this year so I’ve yet to wear my fancy new red jersey but Sunday’s looking pretty good, at least for now. If the weather turns dodgy, I’ll make a call by 7 a.m. but let’s stay optimistic. This route reverses one of my favourites through Rockwood…

Sunday, Oct. 9 Combined Road Ride 11 a.m.
Listen, I get it. It’s Thanksgiving and most of us have things to do and trying to fit a ride in with family obligations and turkey cooking and even a stupid playoff baseball game might be tough. It’s the end of the long summer season and we’ve already made plenty of time for cycling so…

Sunday Medium Moderate Road Ride | Sept. 11, 8 AM
This time of year always makes me a little bit sad and lazy. The days are getting shorter and weekday rides have come to an end: maintaining the fitness I’ve built over the summer gets harder and harder and the couch and the chicken wings are right over there, ready to fill the emptiness in…

CANCELLED – Sunday Medium & Moderate Road Ride | June 12 8 AM (Starts at the Y)
UPDATE 7:05 a.m.: The weather forecast actually improved a bit but the radar doesn’t look great and after riding in the rain on Thursday, I don’t recommend it. We’re also down to three riders so I’m going to err on the sign of caution and cancel it. Cycling is often about optimism. Convincing yourself you…
