Our "Wild Card" Sunday CC for this year is the Ancaster Ascension. This CC was cancelled on July 22 because of rain. So, here is another opportunity to go on this super and popular CC! Enjoy!
ANCASTER ASCENSION
A little bit of Ludlum vibe! This Country Cruise offers the options of rail trail riding and some hill climbing all in the lovely countryside northwest of Hamilton. The short route has 9km on the rail trail before lunch in Ancaster. The long route passes through St. George and Ancaster with the rail trail being optional. Both routes do Clara's climb out of Dundas.
Start: 10:00am - Meet at the Waterdown Shopping Centre in Waterdown on the northwest corner of HWY 5 (also called Dundas St. E.) and Hamilton St. N. To get to the shopping mall from Toronto, go west on Hwy. 401 to Hwy. 403. Continue on Hwy. 403 until Highway 6 (exit # 74). Go north on Highway 6 to Highway 5 and turn east on Dundas St. E. Continue until Hamilton St. N. At the shopping mall, park near Tim Hortons.
