  • Wednesday Relaxed Ride | May 16, 6:30PM

    A slightly longer distance this week at 48K to Downtown or 39K to the official finish in Arkel. We’ll continue working towards great communication up and down the double pace line and a steady level of effort – moderate on the flats, slow up the hills and fast down them. We will build to an…

  • Wednesday’s Social Ride: May 2 6:30

    Update: Let’s go. The cycling gods have been appeased. For the first social ride in May, I am told that the Club’s Executive sacrificed a pair of mid-priced carbon wheels to ensure that the weather would be good. So, let’s try the route from two weeks ago: a cruise around the east side of Guelph.…

We will be doing the ride from last Wednesday which was cancelled. Unfortunately…

  • Wednesday Relaxed Ride | August 23rd 6:00 PM

    This ride is 45 kms of familiar stomping grounds – an array of gentle rollers with a final kick in the pants before the home stretch. We’ll start with a quick tour through downtown Eden Mills, then snake through, and keep off of, all the fresh gravel. The plan is to be home before dark.…

  • Wednesday Relaxed Ride – August 16th 6:30 PM

    And now for something completely different… A gentle rolling 46 km route through some favourite areas to match the shortening mid August days. Forestell, Blackbridge, Chilligo all with a Paisley tie(in)- c’est bon! And a small section of dirt road… ever so wafer thin (to keep us honest). Bring lights just in case. See you…

  • Wednesday Relaxed Ride – August 2nd 6:30 PM

The Route: South and West of Guelph. The Distance: 55 km. The Weather: Pop-up cells all over the place! Final call made at 5:30…

  • Social Ride: July 26

    UPDATE 2: The official Ride is cancelled today: rain seems to be moving in fast and would make for a wet ride home. A simple ride: down on Watson and Victoria before returning on First Line.  Please bring a light and, if you have one, membership card. If not, please read the Club’s safe riding…

  • Wednesday Social Ride | July 12th, 6:30pm

    CANCELLED: Between the radar’s imagery and Environment Canada’s Severe Thunderstorm warning, I am not going to wait until 5:00pm to cancel the official club ride for this evening. If a few brave souls want to ride the route, then please ride safe: the forecast is calling for high winds. A longer route while the days…

  • Social Ride | Wed May 3rd 6:30pm

    Wednesday’s ride is relatively short this time: it dips into “Hamilton” for a couple of km. and has some interesting hills. Remember: this will be the first time this year using the summer start time: 6:30. Hopefully, the temperature will also be summer-like. Please bring lights and your membership card, just in case.

    The weather is looking great! A nice serpentine eastern route and easy pace is in store. Remember to check out the Group Ride Guidelines. Be ready to ride for 6. Lights are always a good idea and membership cards too. Spring is in the air (and swamps) – listen for the Spring Peepers on the…
