10 riders took to the trails of the city. We started at the Forks and cycled on trails all the way to the South Perimeter before turning back.
Seven riders took up the challenge of riding the hills and roads of Snow Valley. We cycled the abandoned rail line and even traveled a short distance in a farmer's field. We enjoyed a four course lunch in N D de Lourdes. A great day! |

OUR RIDESWe offer a variety of rides on different days of the week which are described below. Northspokes: Monday - EveningThis ride usually* begins at the (see note below) Cdn Legion parking area on De Vries Ave off Henderson Hwy just south of the Perimeter Hwy.. From here the ride travels through the area of West and East St Paul and up to the Halfmoon Cafe near Lockpfort. This is a very nice scenic ride with lots of interesting sights, smells and sounds with a great group of riders. After snacks and refreshments at the Cafe the ride then returns to the starting point along Henderson Hwy. Sweeps are provided to offer company and assistance to those who fall behind for whatever reason. *This season, the ride will begin at Tim Hortons on Gateway for the first few weeks. Be sure to check the schedule. (Check the rides leader to confirm ride starting location)
Southspokes: Monday - EveningBegins at the Pembina Crossing Mall behind Shapes and crosses the river to River Rd. Once ride meets with St. Mary's Rd it turns south and continues until it reaches the Red River floodway. After crossing the floodway it turns south and travels along Red River Dr. to Hwy 75.. The ride returns from here on the west side of the river, travelling through St Norbert and U of M back to the starting point. This is a very nice country setting ride with light traffic once it passes the Perimiter Hwy. Both, Northspokes and Southspoke start at 6:00 PM in the months of April and September due to shorter daylight hours. Rides begin at 6:30 PM, May through August.
