THE WHEELY FUN CLUB NEWS!

Level 2 Rides: Tues June 4 & Thurs June 6

Tues June 4, Level 2 Ride: Cobourg Cornish Hollow

We will make steady climbing up into the most beautiful tree lined farm lanes just north of Cobourg and feel the wind in our hair as we whisk down Division St North. The weather forecast calls for cold in the single digits with the wind chill so wool under windproof material is highly recommended. FYI, I will be wearing a wool vest & socks, a buff and ear-grips, leather gloves and wind break jacket and pants. We will meet at the Mill so people may have a chance to socialize/warm up after the ride. Please chime in using the comment section if you plan to ride.

Start Time: 6:30
Ride Leader: Geoffrey Honey
Start Location: The Mill Parking Lot, NE corner of Elgin and Ontario Cobourg.
Route Map: Route Map

Thurs June 6, Level 2 Ride: Westwood Dale

We will start our training by attempting some moderate hill climbing (with lots of time to stop and catch breath and socialize). This route also has some beautiful farmland scenery and is well worth the effort. Please chime in using the comment button if you plan to ride.

Start Time: 6:30pm
Ride Leader: Geoffrey Honey
Start Location: Westwood Park parking lot, Cobourg Carlisle between Ewing and Westwood.
Route Map: Westwood Park, New Amherst, Hwy 2, Theatre Rd, Dale Road, Danforth, Ontario, Through town and back to Westwood Park
