Women Only Ride | August 28th 6:00 PM

,

Special Note: We are starting and ending at Fixed Gear Brewing Canteen.

It’s our final Women’s Ride of the 2024 season, so let’s celebrate with (a start) and finish at Fixed Gear. (Note – We’ve blown the budget, so you’ll have to pay for your own drinks and snacks 🙂 )

Krysta is our ride leader. We’re hoping a lot of you will show up, so that we can split the group into a truly leisurely R8ish ride and a faster “recovery” ride for those who want it!

The route is a nice rural romp, once we manage to circuitously get out of town. There’s a bit of gravel on the route, but it’s all nicely hard packed.

Women Only Ride | August 14 6:00 PM

I am all fired up on girl power after the Olympics, and what better way to celebrate than a GCC women’s ride! Think of these roads as the Champs-Elysees de Guelph.

This was a new ride in the 2022 season that now runs regularly on the 2nd and 4th Wednesday of each month. It is intended to foster a supportive and safe riding culture where women can help women grow in the sport of cycling. The speed and length of this ride may vary to suit those that show up. When there is a larger turnout, the ride may divide into two speed groups. The GCC is keen for the women’s ride to grow as more participants and ride leaders become available.

Bringing lights is always a good idea.

ROUTE CHANGED!! Please re-download the route if you had already downloaded it 😀

HOWDY! Last week’s ride was an amazing turnout – we ended up with two speed groups and about 20 women! Lets do that again! We’ll start at the Guelph Public Library – East Side Branch and… we’ll be going east! I just love these roads so much!
