Rides for the week of: Monday May 23 to Sunday May 30

Posted on May 23, 2022May 30, 2022 | No Comments

We have all the regular rides this week, plus this Sunday we are heading out of town for a ride starting in Peterborough at Beavermede Park. It’s a glorious route along the Peterborough Rotary Greenway Trail all the way up to Lakefield where hopefully it will be much warmer than this past Sunday was. And if so, bring some ice-cream $ for the great ice-cream shop at the end of the trail. For the mountain bikers in the club, there’s ride posted for this coming Saturday, and Helmut always makes sure it’s fun. You can see all the details and also RSVP using your Cycle Club account.

Using the Discussion feature on Cycle Club: We’re all pretty conscious of trying to conserve gas these days, so if you are interested and able to carpooling, there’s a Discussion feature attached to each Event in Cycle Club. Just post a comment there and see what materializes. It’s a great way to communicate with others about any particular ride!

Wednesday May 8th: Level 2 Ride 7:00pm

If you find that Level 1 is just a bit too easy for you, come on out on Wednesday evening. This route is 17k long with a little bit of country and a little bit of town. It’s a no-drop ride and will still be fun and casual but with a little more distance. For […]

No route map is necessary…..we’ll […]

Correction: The ride is April 28th, not May 28th. Thanks, Jen for your sharp eye!

Pre-Season Ride Sunday April 28th: Spring is here!

Finally, the weather man empathizes with our cold weather woes and provides us with sunshine and 17° this Sunday. Our “official” season hasn’t started yet, but we’re heading our for a pre-season ride. We’ve got a 100k coming up next month on the May long weekend, so a few of us are anxious to get […]
