Short-notice ride: 3:00 at Hamilton Township Offices
It’s short notice, but that’s how these pre-season rides sometime work. We seize the moment! This ride is at 3:00, starting at Hamilton Township Offices. We’ll just head out for a Level 3-ish ride, with the goal being mostly to get our butts accustomed to being in the saddle again. There are a few hills out here and it’s a little windy out, but we’ll take it easy.
Time: 3:00pm
Start Location: Hamilton Township Municipal Offices, 8285 Majestic Hills Road
Ride Planner: Anita
Level of difficulty: Level 3
RSVP: Please RSVP using your Cycle Club account. (Or leave a comment, if you don’t know how to use Cycle Club yet)
