Mike is back in action and will be leading the Level 3 ride this Wednesday. The group will start at the Arena on Furnace St. and head out via Cornish Hollow and Baltimore then back via Nagle. No route map this time….just stick together in a group!

Ride Leader: Mike McLellan
Start location: Cobourg Memorial Arena on Furnace St.
Start time: 6:00pm

We’ve got a new start location for this week’s level 2 ride that avoids having to climb up the big hill that is Port Hope. Rich Ross will lead from Kings Field at the west end of Port Hope. It’ll be a nice and simple out-and-back route along the Lakeshore which will hopefully give some nice cool relief to this hot weather we’ve been experiencing. We anticipate a total of about 25km.

Ride Leader: Rich Ross
Start time: 6:00pm
Start location: King’s Field (baseball field) in Port Hope (Victoria St. just south of the lights at Toronto Rd. and Ridout St.)

This week we’ll meet at the Cycle Transitions parking lot, which on the west side of the building. (Cycle Transitions is across D’Arcy Street from the Cobourg Community Centre). We’ll learn how to handle the roundabouts and some railway tracks! It’s pretty warm out there these days so make sure you bring along some fluids to keep hydrated.

Ride Leader: Maria Siemiaszko
Time: 6:00
Meeting Location: Cycle Transitions, 739 D’arcy Street
Level: 1

This Sunday morning Roberto is organizing an all levels ride which will head east along the Waterfront Trail as far as each rider would like to go before they turn back. If anyone wants to do a century they can head to the lighthouse in Presqu’ile – or not! Because it’s the Waterfront Trail, there’s no map for this ride, and it’s an out an back ride so you may encounter other riders on your way back. If you leave a comment if you are coming, and can indicate the level and distance you’re hoping for, it often encourages others who would like to come out but don’t know whether they’ll have someone to ride with. After all, most of us join a club to ride with others! As it’s an all levels Sunday ride, there won’t be leaders for each group.

Date: Sunday, May 29th
Time: 10:00
Meeting Location: Donegan Park
Levels: all
Ride Organizer: Roberto

This Thursday Debbie Robertson will happily lead the 48km route starting from Port Hope Town Hall, out to lovely Hope Township. Since the days are quite long now we can afford to cover almost 50k before sunset! There are some hills, (we cannot lie) but it’s a great route and not too crazy. Nothing like last week!

Start time: 6:00pm (in Port Hope)
Ride Leader: Debbie Robertson
Start location: Port Hope Town Hall parking lot

Please comment below and let Debbie know you are riding so she can know how many to expect.

I have a little time between when I finish work at noon or so and the CanBike course being taught at Gummow at 3, so what better way to fill the time than a quick little ride? How about Cornish Hollow? The blossoms along the way should smell heavenly!

Date: Wednesday, May 25th
Time: 12:45
Meeting Location: arena on Furnace Street
Level of Difficulty: 2

The warm weather is finally here, and Tuesday is forecasting 26° and all sunshiny! This week Roberto will lead the group, starting at Westwood Park, out to Theatre Rd., across Telephone Rd., up to Danforth and back again down Ontario St. It promises to be a great ride, as the regular Level 2 participants will tell you! By the way, all club members are welcome to participate in any ride they wish as along as you stay within the ride expectations. So, for you speedy folks out there, why not come out and give Level 2 a try and see how nice it is to ride at a comfortable easy pace and meet new people.

Start time: 6:00pm
Ride Leader: Roberto Almeida
Start Location: Westwood Park

See you all on Tuesday!

We’ve got 32km for you this week, and there are a few hills on this one. We’re throwing in a few hills this time because we are keeping the distance a little shorter than a standard Level 3.

Roberto has offered to lead a Level 3 ride this Monday evening (thanks Roberto!). It will likely head out to the St. Anne’s Spa area, so expect a nice climb. The Level 1 ride will be departing from the same area so it’s a chance for a couple of mixed levels to car pool or ride to the meeting spot together. It may also be a chance to socialize over some ice cream after ride (if you hurry!)

Start Time: 6:00
Ride Leader: Roberto Almeida
Start Location: Donegan Park
Level of Difficulty: 3
