    Calaboogie Sun Aug 31

    As discussed with last week's Muskoka group, I am planning to ride to Calabogie this Sunday

    Pace will be quick, but not retarded. There's no need to be a hero, but if you're really slow, you probably wont enjoy this ride. Last time the front of the pack would arrive about 2-3 mins ahead of the back, after a spirited 20km. It was perfect

    Ride will start from Tim Horton's(401 east, exit 431) in Bowmanville Sunday at 9:00am sharp. I(+1 or 2) will be there by 8:50am.


    -All fun roads- No 400 series boredom getting there. Although I know the surrounding roads to the south, east, and west, I'm not too familiar with the actual Calabogie area, If you are, any suggestions for roads and lunch spot would be appreciated. I know the 500 series roads are not to be missed so I intend to include them.

    -FULL tanks in Bowmanville Please I cant stress this enough. Please get off the highway, fill your bike at Sunoco or Shell then meet at Tim's

    -Gear up folks! the last ride I posted included a pretty nasty crash. The rider walked away without a scratch, because of a full textile suit. At a very minimum a textile jacket, jeans and ankle high boots for this ride.


    Please post so I can get an idea of the interest.

    I should once again be in for this one, hopefully I get to complete the full ride this time.

    PM sent with a wicked route that I've done before. Other than the GAP, best ride of my life!
