About this event
RWGPS Route Links
The Routes We'll continue enjoying the fall foliage this week. We're heading up to Lyndhurst, the site of the oldest bridge in all of Ontario! The A, B and C routes all circumnavigate Charleston Lake, and pass through a number of the early settled towns of eastern Ontario. The D route goes through lovely old farm country to the north of Lyndhurst.
Parking Petra of Petra's Place (5 Star Reviews!) has kindly agreed to let us park on her property. Please park away from the building so that others can also use the parking lot.
Car Pooling Please consider!
Post Ride Refreshments Petra's Place is closed for the season. Thus, bring some tailgate refreshments, and enjoy chatting for a bit at Petra's outdoor tables before heading back into town.
