Tues July 9, Level 2 Ride: Westwood Cobourg

Just a reminder that Level 2’s Tuesday’s rides are a “Steady” Ride (that is, lower end of the average speed and distance, more moderate hills with more frequent stops).

We will start at Westwood Park parking lot and head out west up Theatre Rd and further west to Hamilton Rd. North to Dale, east until Theatre Rd again and loop back the way we came. This is an undulating but manageable course. We will take frequent stops to catch our breath and socialize. Please chime in using the comment section so we can know to expect you! Don’t forget water and helmets.

Start Time: 6:30 pm
Ride Leader: Geoffrey Honey
Start Location: Westwood Park parking lot, Carlisle St, between Ewing and Westwood.

Thurs July 11, Level 2 Ride: Donegan Park Cobourg

Just a reminder that Level 2’s Thursday rides are a “Training Ride” (that is, gradually building up stamina for hills and or longer distances or speed within the Level 2 parameters with slightly fewer rest stops so that riders can condition themselves to move to L3 if they wish).

Jim Berg will be taking us out along the waterfront trail. His ride description: “This is an out and back on a fairly flat route (only 3 hills) following the Waterfront Trail east to the Nawautin Nature Sanctuary and returning on the same route. Approximately 25 km.”

Please chime in using the comment button so Jim can know to expect you.

Start Time: 6:30pm
Ride Leader: Jim Berg
Start Location: Donegan Park parking lot, D’Arcy St Cobourg
