Paul will lead the first Tuesday morning hike of the year which will be a loop of the east end of Cobourg. Warm up with some coffee and socializing afterwards at Craft. If you haven’t yet rejoined the NHCC for 2018 or are bringing a guest, don’t forget to bring a signed guest waiver.
Start Time: 9:30
Meeting Location: parking lot behind Craft Food House
Hike Leader: Paul Mills
It’ll be a chilly one but we’ve already done some skiing in the super cold weather and stayed warm so layer up! The Lakefield Speed Skating Oval is hoping to open this weekend so maybe we can meet out there Sunday. You can use your own skates or rent speed skates there.
Time: 1:00
Meeting Location: Beagle Club parking lot

It’s a new year! And this Wednesday night is the first evening hike and this time we are starting and finishing in Cobourg for a change. Anyone is welcome, and that means non-members too. If you haven’t hiked with us before, it’s a perfect time to come out and try since we love it when new people show up! We typically walk about 6-8 km at a fairly brisk pace, depending on weather. Nothing too serious…who knows, we may even make snow angels!
As usual, bring a few $$ with you in case we slip into some local establishment for a hot drink (funny how that happens!)
Non-members: Please bring a signed non-cycling waiver (FREE!)
Start time: 6:00pm
Location: Cobourg, parking lot behind the Dutch Oven
Hike leaders: Anita and Randy
Even though it was a super cold day we stayed warm (thanks to layering and covering exposed skin) and had, yet again, a fun time! If conditions permit, there will be a night ski Saturday early evening on the trail from Hastings, but for the rest of the days this year the start time is at 1:00 from Beagle Club.
For more information regarding Saturday’s ski, check the comments on this post as there will not be a separate post for it. If we don’t do the night ski on that day, we’ll ski at 1:00 at Beagle Club instead. Maria Siemiaszko is the ski coordinator for all the dates.

Meeting Location: Richard and Leigh Thompson’s house, Hastings. Let us know if you don’t have their address and we’ll send it to you. Apres ski at Richard and Leigh’s to follow.
This is a final opportunity to wear your Christmas lights! Bring a headlamp or flashlight. We ski by the moonlight but use the brighter lights to warn snowmobilers of our presence as this is a multiuse trail.

The NHCC may be in off-season mode but it doesn’t mean we aren’t active! There are plenty of club activities including mid-week hiking in-town and weekend hikes or cross-country skiing (when it snows) in the local forests. We love seeing new smiling faces, so if you’ve been thinking about it, come on out and give it a try.
Off season non-cycling events are open to everyone and it’s FREE! We do however require that non-members bring a signed waiver form to any event. Simply print it, sign it, and bring it with you to give to the organizer.
Got questions? Feel free to leave it in the comments section and we’ll be right on it!
Last week we walked to the Christmas display on Choate Road and ended up at Nookies Soul Kitchen after the hike. As always, there were lots of laughs. We will meet in the parking lot at the Port Hope Town Hall at 6:00. If it is a clear night we may walk along the Waterfront, so please bring a flashlight or headlamp. If it is not clear, we can check out the lights in Port Hope.
Guests are welcome! There is no charge but please bring along a signed guest rider waiver form (available at top of website).
Start Location: Port Hope Town Hall parking lot
