About this event


Meet at the Harrowsmith Cataraqui trailhead on Hwy 38. We’ll ride north to connect with the K&P trail for approximately 20kms (always an opportunity to turnaround sooner) and return with a stop in Verona at Food Less Travelled for refreshments. Note that Food Less Travelled only takes cash or debit. 


A leisurely weekly ride of 30 to 40km (group consensus) with a coffee/ice cream break in the middle for most rides.

This ride is ideal for those new to cycling or those getting back in the saddle after a few years away. Most rides will be either on the K&P or Cataraqui Trail. A few rides will feature a trail further afield keeping within an hour and a quarter from Kingston. We will avoid riding on the road. A short portion may require a road to get to refreshment establishment. Pace will be 10 to 18 km/hour (some members may ride a little quicker).

As most of our rides are out and back, there will be an option to turn around earlier and shorten the ride. We may also be able to accommodate a longer ride based on the group consensus at the start and the availability of a leader.

Hope to s
ee you!
