Ride: Thursday June 23: “Butter Tart Run” 10am

Butter Tarts in Harwood! That’s where we’re going. We’ll start at The Mill and head up toward Harwood where we’ll take a break at the local store. They have awesome butter tarts so be sure to bring a little moolah with you. The estimated long distance will be about 60km. There will also be options for a shorter route if desired. However, if you take the short route you’ll miss the butter tarts!

Start time: 10:00am
Start location: The Mill Restaurant parking lot

  1. Hi Anita – I hope to come on Thursday but doubt that I can do the 60k so I would like to know more about the short route.

    Thanks ,

    • Hi Brenda
      The shorter route will probably be about 16 or 17km and there will certainly be some hills which can’t be avoided but if you want to give it a try there will be someone to take the short route with you. Usually we have a volunteer to lead the shorter route but if none materializes it will likely be me!

  2. I may ride the short route.and will bring a Freewheeler map of the Short Rice Lake Raminbleie 63k with one adjustment
    in Canbourne. Anita if you have a chance you could post this map. This route avoids Williamson hill. The short route is 25 k but the return ride has mostly downhill grades.

  3. Looks a lot like rain outside……but the Accuweather website shows hour by hour weather and it shows mostly cloudy this morning and thunderstorms at 1:00 and 2:00. Let’s hope for the best!

  4. As much as I was looking forward to the butter tart, I don’t think I want to chance riding in the rain (might melt..)

    • Good think I was scared off by the weather report-as soon as I decided not to ride, it started pouring sunshine! ;P
