RWGPS Route Links

The Routes Our "season opener" (weather permitting?) will start in Sydenham, and head out to the Opinicon area. We'll finish up on the always fun (and possibly muddy!) Wagon Trail (with a bailout option on the Bedford Road). There'll be a mix of rail trail, paved road, gravel road and hiking trail, with some tough (but optional) hills towards the end.

Car Pooling Please consider!

After Ride Refreshments The folks at Lenny's Deli are always friendly and the food and coffee are great.
