RWGPS Route Links

The Routes The A, B and C routes include two of the club's favourite roads in the region - Burnt Hills Rd and Battersea Rd. The D route heads south, and so avoids Burnt Hills Rd and its hills.
  • D Route The D route heads south via Round Lake Road, and eventually heads back north via Ida Hill Road.
  • C Route The C route this week goes out on the always fun Battersea Rd, takes a break at picnic tables at the Jones Falls locks, next heads to Seeley's Bay, and then returns on the wonderfully scenic Burnt Hills Rd.
  • A and B Routes The B and A routes add additional loops to the C route. This means that an A route rider could easily bail onto the B route. Similarly, a B route rider rider could easily bail onto the C route.
To see how the above C, B and A routes relate to each other, open this page on your desktop, click on the "RWGPS Route Links" button above, and then click on the "Show all on map" button.

After Ride Refreshments After the ride, the Creekside Bar & Grill in Battersea will welcome us for lunch or other refreshments.
