The Toronto International Bicycle Show is this weekend! It’s that time of year, when we all start to think a little (or a lot) about getting the bike out, checking it all over and getting it ready to ride. Maybe you wanna pick up another bike to add to your growing stash of bikes! Hey, there are bargains to be had at the Bike Show and there are usually a few people heading to it and would be happy to travel together so if you think you might go, Members—start a Discussion on your Cycle Club Event calendar.

We are hitting the streets of Port Hope for the Tuesday Night Hike. Best to bring a flashlight and wear good hiking shoes. We’ll head into Turtle Johns for Wings afterward (optional, of course). Estimating about 8-10km.

RSVP: Members, please RSVP using your Cycle Club account. Guests are welcome as always, but need to bring a signed waiver which is available on the website.

The success of our ride season is entirely built on volunteers. The NHCC needs at least  Four (4) Primary ride leaders and four (4) Substitute Ride Leaders for each Level to best deliver a consistent reliable Ride Schedule.  We have about 220 rides needing leaders. We’re not looking for commitments to ride every single week—just some times, so others don’t have to do it every time at the expense of their enjoying some of the other club rides! 🙂

We have lots of routes and maps, mentors to help you out. We’ll develop a list of Primary Ride leaders and also a stash of Substitute Ride Leaders to fill in!

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