NHCC Rides for the week of: Monday Aug. 28 to Sunday Aug. 3
![]()
This coming Sunday we are having our Labour Day Ride & Potluck. We will have an out-and-back route that everyone can complete at whatever pace you wish because we ride for 45 minutes then turn around and come back. Everyone finishes at the same time! We are going Potluck style for this social event, which means everyone brings a little shareable something or other—it can be anything—salad, dessert, sandwiches, chili, potato chips, cheese, fruit—you name it! In true potluck fashion, it will all be a wonderful surprise. Also, please bring a lawn chair and your favourite drink.
After this week, all evening rides will begin at 5:30 or earlier if they haven’t already been doing so. Believe it or not on Thursday the sun will set at 7:49pm! Also, given the cooler temperatures, morning rides may start at 10am (always confirm you have the right time by referring to the event in Cycle Club)
