This ride will be open for registration beginning Monday April 8
You MUST register for the ride in order to join the ride.
N.B. This is a Leisure Wheeler level ride. If you are uncertain whether this level is appropriate to your riding level, click here.
On this ride we will navigate the new bike route on Cherry St. The strategy in this short game is a move to exchange the noise and blockage of the constant construction during the week for a quiet meander along the waterfront. We will visit Brick Street Bakery on Logan where you can buy a treat to eat when we stop at Riverdale Park or, bring your own snack or light lunch for our picnic in the park.
START: Meet at King Edward's Statue, west side of Queen's Park. Come at 9:45 to be ready for a prompt start at 10:00 AM.

Weather: The ride could be cancelled because of the weather (e.g. too cold, too wet, too windy). If the weather looks doubtful, check the website after 8am on the day of the ride.
Safety Reminder: Signal all turns and stops. If you are unable to signal, call out the turn. In the meantime You must practise riding with one hand on your own, so that eventually you are able to signal. This is important in traffic. Give adequate warning to cyclists behind you by calling out "stopping" when you intend to stop.
