About this event


Meet at the Harrowsmith Cataraqui trailhead (parking is available on both the east and west side of Hwy38). We’ll ride west on the Cataraqui trail heading to Newburgh and Abrams Bakery for a refreshment. This ride is 21km one way. Opportunity to turn around at Yarker or Camden East to shorten the ride.


A leisurely weekly ride of 30 to 40km (group consensus) with a coffee/ice cream break in the middle for most rides. As most of our rides are out and back, there will be an option to turn around earlier and shorten the ride. 
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).

Hope to s
ee you!
