Sunday

The weather is predicted to be around 11 degrees and partially sunny. The route will be mostly gravel roads with a couple of easy two-track ‘connectors’ (hopefully no mud). Unfortunately there is no cafe or convenience store near halfway on this route. Please bring food, enough drink and dress for the conditions. Check back here…

RIDE CANCELLED. We’ll try again next week and hope for better conditions. It’s going to be a cold, wet, mucky and windy all Hallows Eve, Hallowe’en or Halloween (your spelling preference) fall colour ride. Weather is predicted to be chilly, windy and wet – around 8 degrees at the start. Brrr…. costumes are mandatory (ok,…

Weather prediction is warm. Should be around 17 degrees at 9 am. This ride is a wee bit shorter to allow for the long weekend commitments people need to get back for. We should easily be back by noon. There will be a halfway stop at the Lost & Found Cafe in Elora. Be sure…

This one is called Kissing Flormira Wilson for obvious reasons. It was rained out a month ago, but the forecast is looking favourable this time. 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…

RIDE CANCELLED   Slick mucky trails and a few other compounding factors have led to the cancellation of this ride. We’ll try this route another time. The road ride is still on. This is a slightly longish one but has a perfectly placed snack stop halfway in Elmira. If you’ve never been around the Floradale…

A chilled plate begins this multi course affair with an amuse bouche of G2G followed by some Wilson Flats. The meat and potatoes of the ride are grass fed and northern, pairing well with Carroll’s Creek’s eau de swamp. We’ll then sample a midway snack (literally) at The Right Spot in Alma. Irvine Bridge is…

Well here’s one for the record books. The weather for this Sunday is looking good – sunny with a high of 7 – so a gravel riding we will go! But it’s still chilly by usual standards, dress appropriately – a later start at noon should help some. There will be a snack stop in…

The weather for this Sunday’s Gravel ride is looking quite ideal considering last year on this date it didn’t get above zero. There will be a snack stop in Elora. Bring cash/card and a mask for that. If the group splits, we will regroup throughout the ride and no one will be left behind. Try…

RIDE CANCELLED – We’ll try this one again next week. Original Post: The forecast for this Sunday’s Gravel ride is “rain showers or flurries ” – so most likely will not run. Which will give you a chance to sleep in after too many mini Mars bars plus the time change and let you dream…

11 AM Start – Don’t Forget! This Sunday’s Gravel ride is a long-ish one. For those who missed the Floridale excursion a few weeks ago here’s another chance, yet a completely different route and direction. We will have a ‘carry your own’ snack stop on the damn at Lake Belwood and a rest/re-fuel stop at…

RIDE CANCELLED – too wet and cold = frowny faces This Sunday’s 70km Gravel ride is last year’s BGR (Big Gravel Ride) club event in reverse! This in-town multi surface route is best ridden when Guelphites are shuttered – the forecast is promising that at this point. If you didn’t ride this last year then…

Sunday Gravel Rides will continue into October This ride will take us to beautiful downtown Floradale. Also through Yatton, Elmira, West Montrose, Winterbourne, Wissenburg and Ariss before returning back to Guelph. If the group splits, we will regroup throughout the ride and no one will be left behind. Try loading the course into your bike…
