Level 2 Rides: Tues May 28 & Thurs May 30

Tuesday May 28, Level 2 Ride: Westwood Cobourg

We will do a slightly shorter-than-usual 17 km ride with a few moderate hills and frequent rests. The weather looks to be cold so make sure you have gloves, wind layers and wool/fleece underneath. Wondering what to wear? Forcast says 13, feels like 11, so I will be wearing: Helmet, leather gloves, Hi-vis windproof jacket & pants, wool vest, buff for neck protection, ear grips. Meeting at Westwood Park we’ll ride out to New Amherst, down Hwy 2 to Theatre Rd, then Telephone Rd., Burnham, Danforth, Ontario, then navigate a few in-town roads back to the start point. Please chime in if you using the comment section so we know you are coming and can look out for you.

Start Location: Westwood Park Parking Lot Carlisle St Between Westwood and Ewing

Thursday May 30, Level 2 Ride: Cobourg to Archers Rd.

We will try again to defy the wind and actually make it out to Archer’s Rd. After a safety discussion we will head out from Sleep Country Parking Lot down Hwy 2 to Archer’s Road as far as the Railway bridge. There is one significant hill over the railroad tracks at the east end of town. There will be frequent breaks for water (bring some) catching your breath and socializing. Clothing FYI:  I will dress similar to Tues but will ditch the leather gloves, wool vest and ear grips, depending on wind. Please chime in if you using the comment section so we know you are coming and can look out for you.

Start time: 6:30pm
Ride Leader: Geoffrey Honey
Start Location: Diamond Head Industrial Park, 210 Willmott St. Cobourg

    I will be joining the Thursday May 30 ride….tonight…looking forward to it

  3. Thank you, Geoffrey for leading tonight. I’m sorry I missed everyone at the end. I hope everyone was okay! I did stop at the intersection of King St & Wilmott Street and waited. When no one appeared after a while, I went to the parking. Seeing no one, I rode up to the top of the bridge and still didn’t see anyone! Having to ride to the west end, and given the fading light, I rode home. Thanks again…great ride!
