Itinerary:
This ride travels mostly along quite, picturesque country roads. We will start in the small town of Mount Albert and travel mostly north to Lake Simcoe where we will stop for lunch and, if it is warm enough a swim. We will travel back to Mount Albert along the same route. The area around Mount Albert is quite hilly, while the rest of the ride is mostly flat. You need to bring your lunch, snacks and liquids with you, because we are unlikely to pass places to buy food. After the ride, we may go for refreshments in or near Mount Albert, or back in Toronto.

If you are driving please tell me how many people and bikes you can take INCLUDING you and your bike?

Also if you have not ridden with me before, you MUST answer in the affirmative the following questions in the notes sections of the sign up page (for you own ease simply copy and paste the questions into the Notes section and type in your answers when you sign up):
1. Do you agree to wear a bicycle helmet?
2. Are you experienced, comfortable, and safe riding in traffic i.e. with automobiles?
3. Are you able to bring a spare tube for your bicycle?
4. Does your bicycle fit you properly?
5. Is your bicycle in decent shape ie no rusty chain etc, working brakes?
