Rides

Quick little cafe ride planned for tomorrow night! Note we will be taking 114 Ave East. Routing apps tend to not like the one way road there. We will be heading to Felice Cafe for a toasty beverage. Coming back to the pool through downtown. See you tomorrow at Oliver Pool, 6 pm! Bring your…

The theme this week is: Do you ever look at the map and look for a place you’ve never biked to? We visited Davies LRT station last Fall in the rain. Let’s go back and see what’s new there. There’s also a mysterious path to begin the spooky season! Bring LIGHTS! See you at the…

Fall colours ride! Don’t forget your lights!! We are going to have some stops at two overlooks along the south side of the River Valley. No going down into it this time around either! Short 21 km route on 99.9% paved surfaces. First lookout is Grandview Heights overlooking Whitemud Creek. Second will be in Belgravia…

Wednesday September 6 – Neighbourhood adventures! Don’t forget your lights! We will head through Westmount and North Glenora to go see how the new Velodrome is coming along. Heading north into Woodcroft, into Sherbrooke, to see the new speed bumps on a great connector route. Finally down into Blatchford to see how that area is…

Terwilliger Foot Bridge! We will have some gravel/unpaved to deal with this week on our route. We are going to head west to go down to Fort Edmonton footbridge. From there continue through the meadow to the dog park. There is a planned climb out of the dog park but an alt route will be…

Redo of the route from last week. We will ride up Connors road hill to have a view of Folk Fest from above (was more exciting last week, but we can see how much work the Site Crew has done dismantling things). There’s a footbridge over Wayne Gretzky Drive which I’ve always wanted to ride…

Velodrome & Ice Cream! We have a route planned by one of our regulars, Chris, this week! We will head into the river valley by the Royal Glenora club, down Mill Creek Ravine to a stop at the Argyll Velodrome and back to our start through Ritchie. There’s a planned stop at the OG Kind…

Hilly River Valley Ride. We are heading up to Kingsway then East with a trip into the River Valley and coming back along the south bank. There will be an option to take the funicular up for those who aren’t up for riding back out (especially after the ones near 75th). We’ll coordinate meet spots…

Wednesday July 12, 2023: Beaumaris Lake! It’s time for our annual trip north to Lake Beaumaris! We will go through Prince Charles from the pool so we can stay on 127 Street on the way back. You know what else is on 127 Street? Twice Cream🍨🍨! If we are quick enough on the ride we…

Here’s the route this week. Riding to Fred Broadstock pool, then back home through MacKinnon Ravine. The summer street is back on Victoria Park Road hill which we will ride up back to our pool! The theme this week is swimming pools, but maybe we can ride through a spray park too if it’s hot…
