Riding from Campbellcroft – Tuesday, August 13

Jennifer and Andy will host Tuesday’s ride from their home starting at 10 am.

We will follow The Oak Hills route which offers 50-km and 37-km options and apparently, also a 27-km option. The longer route does have Stark Hill in it, so be prepared for a climbing challenge.

Chili will be the main lunch offering – you’re welcome to bring salad accompaniments or desserts.

Good news – the weather forecast for Tuesday is actually improving since earlier in the week. Should it worsen, Jennifer will make the call Monday evening re: whether to cancel!

    1. Our club photographer ain’t half bad eh! If anyone is fearful around dogs please let us know ahead of time……..ours are very friendly but pinch shoes, gloves, jump into cars if door left open etc. Andy does great obedience training lol!

  1. FYI There are a number of ways to shorten the route but one of the best is to cut off the 7 th line loop, which includes Mill St. & Deans Hill back to the deadly Oak Hill Hill. Instead of turning right (TR ) onto 7 th line one just continues straight on #65 to CR 9, straight over to Beaver Meadow @ Elizabethville. Go north & then TL onto Oak Hill Rd. (West of that lovely but brutal hill)……in a jiffy you are at 178 where Gideon & Piper await your arrival…….Brian & Barb did this route last year, I believe.

  4. Okay, the ride is on as now only 20% chance of rain at 10 am thru 1 pm. Looking forward to seeing everyone. Rain or sunshine……if some people could throw in a chair for outside luncheon it would help we have some but perhaps not enough! Also please print your map if possible. Thx.

  5. Not able to make this ride as Glennis and I are heading to Quebec City with our granddaughters. I have never ridden this route. Would love to try those hills.

  7. Thanks Jennifer and Andy for hosting today’s event. What a great ride and grand buffet at your beautiful home. I’m not sure I could have pulled myself up even one more hill. But the views were worth it.
