We’re keeping it local for the evening ride! On Thursday the Level 2s are starting out in Port Hope and the 3/4s are expanding the exploration of the Waterfront Trail by starting out in Darlington and heading toward Whitby which is always a fantastic experience. On Sunday, the Level 3/4s are doing the Lang-Hastings Trail toward Peterborough and back for something a little different. The Level 1s Sunday Ride needs your input! Use the Discussion feature on the Cycle Club app to indicate what you’d like—in town, out of town, big adventure, ride & picnic—it’s your call.
Weather this week looks iffy—we’ll see how it goes. In the event that Thursday is a washout, it’s possible some rides may be re-scheduled to Friday if ride leaders are available, so stay tuned.
