Ride Description:
Come and enjoy the beautiful rolling hills of Strathcona County. We try to stay on quiet roads with good tarmac but occasionally need to cross higher-traffic roadways. Use RideWithGPS or find a ‘buddy’ in the group if riding alone is not your preference; everyone is friendly! Distances will increase over the season as cyclists build endurance. Early on, sunset is 8:20PM so bring a front light and tail light. The last ride will be Tuesday, Aug 31 (sunset 8:07PM; bring front and tail light).
