Choose Your Own Adventure

September 26, 2021

Choose your own adventure and Cycle 4 St. Joe’s on September 26th in celebration of our 100th anniversary!

For the first time, we are offering participants two ride location options in this year’s Cycle 4 St. Joe’s.

There’s something for everyone! Check out the details below and pick a route that works best for you:

  1. Milton Route – Mattamy Velodrome start– if you’re looking for a structured, marked and supported group ride – this is the location for YOU! Route distances include 25km, 50km, 75km and 100km options that take you through the beautiful countryside around Milton and include rest stops to help you fuel up along the way!
  1. West End Route - kicking off at the Argonauts Rowing Club on the Lakeshore, the west end ride offers a recreational experience for the whole family. This leisurely ride experience concept is less structured with no formal road closures or specific start times. We will be providing some suggested routes that take you through some of toronto’s west end trial systems for a 10km, 20km or 40km ride option.
  1. Virtual - For those who wish to take it virtually, there is the opportunity to participate on Zwift or Peloton on Saturday, September 25th .

Both locations will offer pre-ride drink and snack options to fuel our participants as well as a post ridelunch from west-end’s own Woody’s Burgers.

 

 

*Please note that additional ride details will be updated in the coming weeks. If you have any specific questions, do not hesitate to reach out to our Events Officer, Carla Roberto
