THE WHEELY FUN CLUB NEWS!

The NHCC is looking for Ride Leaders! Meeting on Tuesday March 15, 6:30pm

Posted on | 2 Comments

We are excited about the upcoming cycling season and need volunteers to meet with us next week to help put together our 2022 Ride Calendar. The meeting will also help us determine how and when we ride, who our Ride Leaders are, and if we have enough volunteers to support separated Levels (1, 2, 3, and 4).

Date: Tuesday March 15, 2022
Time: 6:30pm
Location: 8303 Smylie Rd.

Think you could pitch in this year? A little or a lot, we’ll take it! Please RSVP by either completing the form below. If unable to view form, you can email secretary@northumberlandhillscyclingclub.com to indicate you’ll come!

There is no form selected or the form was deleted.

How many rides per week is the NHCC considering?

The number and variety of Club rides will be directly dependent upon how many volunteers step up!

We are hoping for 3 or 4 individuals for each Ride Level that can help with planning & leading—the more, the better! We would rotate ride leaders so it doesn’t become too onerous for any one individual this season.  You don’t need to be highly skilled or experienced—just interested enough to pitch in a little.

We’re not looking for commitments to ride every single week—just some times, so others don’t have to do it every time. We have lots of routes and maps, so Ride Leaders who step forward don’t have to be responsible for all that!

Wednesday March 21st: Evening Group Ride: 6:00 Donegan Park

This one is for those of you who are a little afraid of speed and hills so early in the season. We’ll head toward Wicklow Beach. We’re limited by daylight hours, so we ride out for a half hour then turn around and come back. If we’re lucky we’ll make it to the Nuwatin conservation […]

This ride is for those folks who are experienced, aren’t afraid of speed, and want a little challenge early in the season.

Sunday, March 18th: 30km ride (10am)

We’re still in “off-season” but it’s sure looking like awesome cycling weather, so there’s no reason to sit indoors. This route is only 29.7km but if you want to cut off some distance, you can make it about 20km by taking a shortcut at Danforth Rd.  And hey, if you want to go longer, you […]
