RWGPS Route Links

The Routes This week's routes travel quiet country roads along the scenic north shore of Hay Bay, riding past the sunflower fields.  The longest route also travels along the south shore of Hay Bay.

 

Early Registration and Car Pooling In order to facilitate restaurant planning, ride leader organizing and possible car pooling (and thereby lessen the Club's carbon footprint), please register early in the week if possible. Our thought is if your neighbor or friend sees early in the week that you are riding, they may consider reaching out to you to organize a carpool. Change your mind about riding? No problem. Our planning is quite flexible.

Pace Groups When registering, be sure to indicate your preferred pace group:

  • the short and medium routes will generally be ridden at a D or C pace
  • the long and extra long routes will generally be ridden at a B or A pace

Post Ride Refreshments We'll head into Old Style Barbeque where we'll be parked. It's part of MacKinnon Brothers Brewing Company.

Ride Preparation  You should be familiar with Ontario's Safe Cycling Guidelines, and bring the following with you on the ride: 

  • a cell phone, with the app "what3words" installed
  • a copy of the ride route (downloaded to a mobile device or printed)
  • a spare tube, pump and repair kit
  • sufficient hydration and nutrition
  • health card
  • document showing address and emergency contact information
The Saddle up Sundays Program Our program aims to offer a Sunday cycling outing for all levels of riders on a varied collection of the most scenic and the safest country roads close to Kingston. The rides include stops at the best coffee shops along the way, and finish up with refreshments at some great restaurants. We’re a work in progress, so please feel free to suggest modifications to our program.
