Hey NHCCers! The 3-night Midland Ride/Adventure is back after such a fantastic time was had last year. We’re putting together another great 3-night cycling getaway in beautiful Midland from Monday, September 14 to Thursday, September 17. Miche has developed cycling routes designed for all levels of riders, from shorter scenic rides to full-day adventures.
At its heart, this is a cycling trip. But this year, we’re expanding the options a little to make the weekend even more enjoyable and welcoming for everyone. Riders who prefer shorter or more relaxed routes will still have lots to enjoy for the rest of the day, and accompanying partners, family members, or friends who don’t cycle will also have plenty of opportunities to join in the fun. In addition to the rides, there are lots of nearby activities and attractions to explore, including:
- Hiking in beautiful Awenda Provincial Park
- Exploring Midland’s waterfront and trails
- Visiting Sainte-Marie among the Hurons
- Discovering the Wye Marsh Wildlife Centre
- Relaxing poolside at the hotel
- Or maybe taking a casual ride to Wasaga Beach for ice cream
Each morning we’ll gather for breakfast before heading out for the day’s rides and adventures. In the evenings, everyone can reconnect over dinner, stories from the day, laughs, and great conversation.
Accommodations:
We will likely reserve a block of rooms again at the Comfort Inn, which worked out extremely well last year. The hotel was very reasonably priced (around $100 per room), included breakfast, had an indoor pool, and the rooms were spacious enough to bring bicycles right inside. Once we get a better sense of numbers, we’ll confirm pricing and room details.
Interested? Here’s what to do:
Find the event starting Monday, September 14 in the Ride With GPS Events Calendar and click:
- “Join” if you’re planning to come, or
- “Interested” if you’d like to stay informed as plans develop.
There’s no obligation at this stage — we’re simply gathering preliminary numbers to help with planning. Joining or marking yourself as Interested is the best way to receive updates between now and the trip. And remember: you don’t have to commit to the full three nights (although we suspect you’ll wish you had!). Hotel accommodations will be booked independently closer to the date.
We hope you’ll join us for a few days of riding, relaxing, exploring, and enjoying great company in one of Ontario’s most scenic cycling areas.
