About this event
9:00AM start. Meet in the parking lot beside the playing fields at Sydenham Beach.
Today we will ride east on the Cataraqui Trail to Frank's Culvert for a total distance of approx. 36km. Option to swim in Hogan's Lake on the way back or at Sydenham Beach when we return. No refreshment options on the route so bring your own. There are baked goods and ice cream options in Sydenham when we return.
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 see you!
