About this event
The Routes Come join a small group of gravel enthusiasts this Wednesday to ride some of the best gravel cycling terrain in the Frontenac region. The routes are figure-of-eight loops that start at the Depot Lakes Conservation Area. They pass by numerous pretty lakes and swamps of some classic Canadian Shield landscapes.
Car Pooling Please consider!
Conservation Area Parking Fee $8.00
After Ride Refreshments We'll head into the Rivendell Golf Club just north of Verona. The club has a great terrace where you can sit out watching the golfers while you have a coffee or replenish your post ride calorie deficit.
