A popular ride that uses quieter streets and trails. The route was revised to avoid the steep hill up to Casa Loma and to take advantage of some of the recent cycling infrastructure such as the new bike lanes on lower Bayview and Richmond. We'll visit neighbourhoods like Wychwood Park, Forest Hill, and Rosedale, learn a bit of history about the Casa Loma neighbourhood, and see newer projects like the new mouth of the Don River.
Meet for a 10 am departure from the Grenadier Cafe in the centre of High Park. The park is currently closed to cars on the weekend so if you are arriving by car you may need to park on the street nearby. Remember to allow extra time to get to the start point.
If a ride is cancelled due to weather or other circumstances a cancellation notice will be posted around 8 am on Sunday morning. Please check before leaving for the ride.
