There are several jerseys that still haven’t been united with their owners. They are ready for pickup at Anita’s house. Please email Anita to make arrangements, or leave a comment on one of the rides that you are attending and she’ll bring it with her. There are still a few extras, so if you want one they are $68 including taxes.

NOTE: September means that the regular start time for morning rides will be 10:00am

This ride has distance options. The 51 and 42 km routes go along the 7th Line which has some significant hills. But the 31 km route is a little more tame. If you want to make it 73km (extra long), then leave from Cobourg Canadian Tire a half hour before the start time. Thanks to Marshall from the Ganaraska Freewheelers who developed the route and has generously allowed us to use his map & directions

Start time: 10:00am (9:30 from Canadian Tire in Cobourg)
Start location: Port Hope Gilmer’s Home Hardware (under the big sign)

Nothing but sunshine, that’s what the forecast says. (hasn’t it said that pretty much all summer long?) The weather’s still good, so no excuses. Let’s get out the bikes and head on over to Port Hope and do an easy ride.

If you wish to ride over there from Cobourg, meet at Canadian Tire at 6:00.

Start time: 6:30 pm (6:00 from Canadian Tire Cobourg)
Start location: Port Hope Town Hall
Ride leader: To be determined (Volunteer needed)

Please comment below if you are riding, especially so if you think you could volunteer to be the ride leader.

What can we say? Mondays are EASY nights, so no stress involved—Just hop on your bike, pedal on over to the arena, and join others for a casually paced friendly ride. Talk about all your summer adventures, complain about school starting soon, and who knows what else. The important thing is that you get your legs moving have fun at the same time.

Start time: 6:30pm
Location: Cobourg Memorial Rink and Recreation Centre on Furnace St.

Ride Leader: Volunteer Needed 

Are there any volunteers to lead the ride?

The official ride for this week is taking place on Saturday August 25th, the Interclub Ride. If you still want to put together a plan to ride on Sunday too, feel free to use the commenting section below to exchange information and put together some ideas for routes and start times, as well as designating someone to be a “Ride Leader”

This route starts and finishes at the park on Carlisle just like last week. Again, be sure to have appropriate lights on the fronts and backs of your bikes since it’s getting a little darker at the end of the rides now.

There have been some fairly long distance rides lately, so we’ll make this one a little shorter and hopefully a little easier for some. It’s about 67 km if you start and finish at Donegan Park, and only 41km if you start at the corner of Cornish Hollow and Dale Rd. It’s a familiar route for most of us, but it is a nice one. If you are starting at Dale Rd. for the 41km route, get there a little early and plan to be ready to roll, (right beside the cemetery), when the 67k group rolls on through.

Start time & location:
9:00am (Donegan Park)
9:20 (Corner of Cornish Hollow and Dale Rd. by the cemetery)

The Port Hope ride is still on! Usually the Port Hope group does about 25km or so, and you can make it longer by starting in Cobourg but you definitely need to have your lights on your bike if you do so.  No report of the Evil Bird, so you’re pretty safe to ride…..

If you wish to ride over there from Cobourg, meet at Canadian Tire at 6:00.

Start time: 6:30 pm (6:00 from Canadian Tire Cobourg)
Start location: Port Hope Town Hall
Ride leader: George or Pam (To be determined)
