Be aware that all members and guests cycle at their own risk. Once you sign up, we are not liable for any mishaps and we do not have any medical training. Please be responsible for yourself and follow all cycling rules and the leader’s agenda.

To help you to be seen and heard on the road, the following equipment is strongly recommended for your bicycle: a bell, flashing front and back lights or reflectors. A mirror is another important addition.

Make sure you are fit and have continued to bike when possible to stay fit. Your muscles may feel this bike ride if you haven't biked for a while but you can shorten it to suit your level of fitness.

We will meet at Fisherman's Corner Parking Lot (check the map) and start our ride from there towards Birch Wood Dairy where we will have our lunch.

People have a choice to return to return earlier via Campbell Rd. after lunch or to continue for a longer bike route. It will be an extra 10km country road ride.
