About this event
RWGPS Route Links
The Routes This week we'll head up to Sharbot Lake in central Frontenac. We'll ride lovely loops that explore the Old Frontenac Road, the Trans Canada Trail, Swamp Road (if it's passable!), and the old Bell Line Road. We'll also be stopping mid-ride for a swim and refreshments at the cottage of one of our members, so bring a swim suit with you.
Car Pooling Please consider!
Post Ride Refreshments The Cardinal Cafe in Sharbot Lake is one of our favourite post-ride recovery spots - great coffee and great food!
