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…

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…

RIDE CANCELLED | Sunday Medium & Moderate Road Ride | August 21st 8:00AM
RIDE CANCELLED. It looks like there’s a 50/50 chance we’d get wet early in the ride and radar suggests a large burst around 10:00 – 11:00 so airing on the side of caution and cancelling the ride. The weather is not looking good at this time so be sure to check back no later than…

It’s going to be a warm one, so it’ll be on the slightly shorter side. A quick trip through the GORBA trails (easy ones) on the way up to Elora. Coffee (or iced coffee) there, and then hopefully some shade on the Kissingbridge trail. Load the route on your bike computer if you have one, here’s…

Sunday Combined Ride 8 AM: All hail the mighty Dar
Dar’s Delights has been a staple in the metropolis of Moffat since I can remember. Hers is a unique combination, to say the least: fine baked goods – the doughnuts are simply outstanding – paired with a personality so curmudgeonly it borders on parody. And don’t ask to use the bathroom unless you want to…

Sunday Medium & Moderate Road Ride | July 31st 8:00AM
Butter Tarts! Now that I have your attention, Sunday morning rides north to Belwood for butter tarts is a mid summer must do. The weather looks like it’ll be a perfect morning for a ride north. We’ll ride at the posted pace but ensure we regroup often if needed. Bring plenty of fluids and money…

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…

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…
