About this event


RWGPS Route Link

The Plan A steady paced ride out to the Colonnade Golf Club (website) for a pick-me-up morning coffee! Feeling social when you get back to town? Hang around and chat for a bit at Springer Market Square.

Alternative Start Location Live in the east end and don't want to drive into town? Meet up with the group at the bottom of Abby Dawn Road around 8:25.

An Experiment If an early morning ride out to the east on one or more weekdays appeals to enough people, perhaps some version of this ride (e.g., Tuesday and Thursday, and perhaps an earlier start time during the heat of the summer) could become a regular Club offering? Comments are invited.
