Summer Solstice Spree I - Oshawa (GO Train Home)

It's summer solstice time and we'll celebrate the long daylight hours with our longest ride of the year. Starting from the Scarborough GO Station we'll bike all the way to Oshawa, mostly using the Waterfront Trail. The route is predominantly flat or downhill, so it should be a fast, fun ride. We'll have several opportunities for "magic hour" and sunset pictures along the lake. The ride will finish at twilight and we'll celebrate with well-earned drinks and snacks. We'll then head over to the Oshawa GO Station, where a train will shuttle us through the darkness back home (approximate fare $9).

Meet at the Scarborough GO Station parking lot, St. Clair east of Kennedy at 6:15 PM for a prompt 6:30 PM departure.

Update: For those biking to the start location from the downtown area, there will be an unofficial ride to the Scarborough GO station leaving from Riverdale Park East (Broadview & Langley) at 5:30 sharp.
