Sunday Road Tours | June 18, 8:00am
Why can’t a bicycle stand up on its own? Because its two tired! When is a bicycle not a bicycle? When it turns into a driveway. Come join me this Sunday for a ride to celebrate Father’s Day. It’s looking like we will have great weather for a tour to Kitchener’s Woodfire Cafe on Lancaster…

CANCELLED: Sunday Road Tours | June 11 8:00AM
UPDATE 7:15 AM CANCELLED: This is a tough one because the forecast says a 30 per cent chance of rain but the radar looks ominous. However, I always think it’s better to be cautious when it comes to club rides so I’m cancelling. Those that are still interested in a ride are welcome to go…

CANCELLED: Sunday Gravel Ride | June 11 8:00AM
7:30AM: RIDE IS CANCELLED. While it might not rain, it’s probably going to rain. You’re welcome to ride on your own – I’d bring the rain jacket, if you do. With the (really fun!) BGR under our belt-less bibs, let’s tackle another longer gravel ride this Sunday. The air quality will hopefully be improving a…

Sunday Gravel Ride | May 28th 8:00AM
It’s looking like a nice day for a long-ish gravel ride in preparation for next week’s BGR! But you’ll still be home in time for lunch! Bring a small snack for a real brief trail side nature break at the snow mobile bridge at Wilson’s Flats and then a few sheckles for a proper Coffee…

Sunday Road Tours | May 28 8:00AM
The Weather Man says it’s going to be 15c at 8am on Sunday, and rising to the mid 20s as the day goes on; we will get an early start to free up the afternoon. The routes will be a bit shorter this week, but there will be lots of climbing on the escarpment for…

Sunday Gravel Ride | May 14th 9:00AM
Graveliers celebrate Mother’s Day, thanks Hallmark! Forecast is looking nice for this Mother’s day ride, but Saturday’s overnight low is only 1°C. Meaning –> chilly morning. Can’t see the hourly prediction at the time of posting. This may get adjusted again. Check back to be sure of our start time. Bring your own snacks for…

Sunday Road Tours | May 14, 9:00AM
Dear mom, Roses are red, violets are blue, I’m going for a ride, to celebrate you. Happy Mother’s Day! Sunday is shaping up to be a lovely day with low wind, a mix of sun and cloud and no precipitation. Seems like a perfect morning for a ride. Join us for a jaunt to Kitchener’s…

CANCELLED: Sunday Road Tours | May 7 10:00 AM
UPDATE 9 AM CANCELLED: I see that a bunch of riders have already made the prudent decision and removed their names from the signup list (which was very helpful in making a decision, thank you.) Based on that, the radar map and the hell that was P2A still fresh in my mind, I’m canceling the…

Sunday Gravel Ride | April 16th 10:00AM – New Start Time!
Welcome to the very first Sunday Gravel ride for 2023! The weather is looking much better than at the time of original posting. We are adjusting the start time to match the unseasonably warm weather. As always, we’ll start the year with slightly shorter routes and keep building as the season progresses, as does our…

Sunday Gravel Ride | November 6th 10:00AM
Note 10AM start due to the time change! Not one of my more adventurous routes, but (1) we haven’t been over the 3rd line snowmobile bridge for awhile, and (2) I went to a fair amount of trouble earlier this summer to obtain permission for GCC riders to use the driveway just south of Elora…

Cancelled – Sunday Medium Moderate Road Ride | October 23rd 11:00AM
Cancelling due to low/no participation. Join us on the gravel or L&F ride instead. The weather looks amazing for a late season ride. If for some crazy reason that changes an update will be posted here no later than an hour before the ride. Since you’ve been working hard all season to strengthen the body…

Sunday Longer Faster Road Ride | October 23rd – Starting at 9am on York Road
This Sunday promises to be a beauty and nice enough to have a reasonably early start. We’ll start at 9am from the Lost Aviator on York Road. The route is about 120km and heads S/E for a quick Espresso stop on Tremaine in Milton, then up and down the escarpment before heading towards Nemo and…

UPDATE: Remote Start Sunday Gravel Ride | October 23rd 10:30AM
The weather is looking fantastic for a Gravel Ride this Sunday! Folks have been asking for another Remote Start ever since we rode out of Creemore, so we’re going to the Grey Highlands!

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 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…
