Jennifer and Andy are hosting Friday’s ride.
They suggest leaving from their home Friday @ 5 pm and we shall ride The Oak Hills 50 k or the shorter route of 37 k.
Bring your costumes for a swim après ride …..picnic in the garden thereafter.
For those who prefer not to cycle a walk is always a possibility either from the house or the Ganaraska Forest.
Sadly Piper is suffering from a torn ACL/CCL so he will not be able to roam free to grab socks, shoes or apple fritters this year!!!
There are mossies so bug spray might be helpful.
Will be there! Looking forward to a ride and a refreshing swim afterwards.

Depending upon the weather, Richard and I are thinking of cycling to Jennifer and Andy’s for a chat with folks before the ride starts then home again.

Okay folks…..what should we do? Calling for rain 40 %…..do we risk it or call it? Again Sun. 10 am might be the better option. Happy to hear from others???

Not too enthused about the weather forecast, so decided to go for a walk instead – sad as we were looking forward to a pre-ride chat! 😊

Hope you can make it out Sunday instead. If you want to ride out it would be nice to time it so you can picnic with us about 12:45 or 1 pm Irene & Richard.

Well, I hope Andy is right because the radar looks pretty wet from 4 pm on.

And the cleverest GFW’er is Jen Poole who rode to the ride so at least got a ride in. Hope you didn’t get too wet Jen! Hmmmm picnic sandwiches for dinner.

I enjoyed a beautiful ride up to a Jennifer and Andy’s. It was spitting but felt great after such a humid day. I rescued a pig that was in the middle of the road on County Road 10 and saw four Indigo Buntings on Oak Hills Road! Even managed a lovely swim upon my arrival. Thanks Jennifer and Andy for the hospitality and for the visit! Maybe see you all Sunday 😊
