Rides for the week of: Monday June 6th – Sunday June 12th
We have all the regular rides this week, plus Mountain Biking on Saturday, and on Sunday we are heading out of town for a the re-scheduled ride from a few weeks ago, starting in Peterborough at Beavermede Park. It’s a glorious route along the Peterborough Rotary Greenway Trail all the way up to Lakefield where you can get a big giant double scooper of ice-cream! Also, on Thursday the Level 3 & 4s are going to stop in and get their cultural groove on as they visit ZimArt (google it!). You can see all the details and also RSVP using your Cycle Club account.
Using the Discussion feature on Cycle Club: We’re all especially conscious of increasing gas prices these days, so if you are interested and able to carpool, there’s a Discussion feature attached to each Event in Cycle Club. Just post a comment there and see if you can collaborate a little on transportation.
