This ride for experienced riders will be run at speeds from around 20 to 26 km/hr (although faster riders are welcome as well!). For additional details on Sunday Tourist rides, please click here.
Click the Register button on this page to register for the ride.
Three ride lengths (80 km, 93 km and 105 km) are available. The 80km ride stops in Ballantrae for lunch (hwy 48 and Aurora Road). The long and medium rides stops at the excellent Annina's bakery in the small community of Goodwood. A washroom stop should be possible at the gas station on the SW corner of Elgin Mills and Leslie (around km 17.5), as well as at the lunch stops.
The beginning portions of the three rides are the same. The longer ride is essentially a "loop" off the shorter ride. This means riders can choose during the ride to do a long or short distance, if they wish. This means you should also bring cue sheets for all routes you think you might ride. Likewise, for GPS units, you should download all routes you think you might ride. The 93km ride to Goodwood diverges from the short and long routes just past 23km (short and long go north on Warden, the medium route continues east on 19th Avenue). The short route diverges from the long route at 32km (short turns right on Vandorf Sideroad, the long continues north on Warden).
The short and long routes take all streets back to Finch. The medium route takes paved multi-use trails back to Finch (the last 8 km of the ride). These paved trails start south from John street just west of Leslie.
Meet at Finch Subway Station, "Finch" west parking lot on the north side of Hendon Ave, just west of Yonge St.
N.B. If you are travelling north on Yonge St, keep going past Finch Ave and turn left onto Hendon Ave. The parking lot is on the right near 18 Hendon Ave, North York.
Ride leader: Sam Bootsma
Distance: 80 km (to Ballantrae) OR 93km or 105 km (both to Goodwood)

Last year the route had to be changed as a result of significant damage to the trails along Etobicoke Creek from unusually heavy rain storms. There is a problem remaining near the airport where a damaged portion of the trail is still fenced off and would necessitate lifting bikes over a fence, so for this year we will use last year's variation.
Lunch is at Tim Hortons near the halfway point . You may still wish to bring your own lunch and snacks to avoid lineups and contact.
Meet for a 10 am departure from the north parking lot of the Kipling TTC station. If you are driving to the start, please note that the lot can now only be accessed from Dundas St. It can no longer be accessed from Aukland Rd.

Some things to bring in a small backpack or pannier:
For almost all of the winery stops on Sunday, our bikes will be close to us and within view but not always. That’s why a small medium security lock is advised. Two people can lock their bikes together with one lock. If necessary, the non-drinkers at those stops can take shifts watching the bikes.
We aim to maintain brisk Urban Roller pace at a speed of around 20 - 22 kph. At that speed, it should take around 5 hours to get to Niagara College. That means that we should get to the residence around 4 pm. Check-in starts at 3 pm. We have 7 pm reservations for the patio at the Play Bar and Grill in the White Oaks Resort (across the road from the Residence).
On Sunday, we can have breakfast at MacDonald’s, Starbucks or at a few other fast food type places within a 10-minute walk. We need to be on the road at 10:00.
Below is the itinerary for Saturday and Sunday.
Saturday (RideWithGPS Burlington GO to Niagara College)
Sunday (RideWithGPS Niagara College to Burlington GO)
After NISI Greek Taverna, we will cycle to Burlington GO station, from where we can take the GO train to Mimico, Union or any other stop.
Member registration opens February 3rd @ 7:30 am.

On this Country Cruise (CC) we will be cycling around the area of St George but, unlike other CCs in this area, we will go further west to the Grand River Valley and have lunch in Paris. The routes have great views of the river as you descend south on East River Road and Paris has a number of historic limestone buildings from the late 1800s and restaurants. The short tour goes to St George and is fairly flat.
Start: 9:00 am Copetown Lions Community Centre 1950 Governors Rd. Dundas ON.
Driving directions: Take the QEW west to Highway 403 west. Exit at Hwy 6 north. Continue to Hwy 5 and turn left. When you get to a traffic circle follow the signs onto Hwy 52 south. In Copetown turn left at the lights onto Governors Road (County Rd. 99) the Lions Park Community Centre will be on your right. Park in the far back parking lot.
Distances: 48km & 79km

July Pub Quiz
You are invited to attend the monthly trivia night at The Prenup Pub on Tuesday, July 29. Please register before Monday, July 28 at 10 pm.
The Prenup Pub is one of the best pubs in the city. It’s a Belgian style pub with a wonderful atmosphere, great food, and extraordinary draft beer, all at reasonable prices. In fact, the atmosphere is actually free! The draft beer list consists of 70 quality brews, of which most are European. There is also a sizeable wine list. The food menu is also extensive and also mostly European, with French, Belgian, Italian and German specialties. There are also quite a few vegetarian and vegan dishes.
The schedule for the evening is as follows:
This will be an unusual pub quiz in that the participants will choose the categories before the quiz begins. Virtually any category is possible, including history, geography, 80s music, Soviet fashion, marine biology, supramolecular chemistry, and even cycling. The teams or four or five will brainstorm possible categories, and we all vote to determine the five most popular topics. Then, since each team will be responsible for one round of questions, they will work together to compose 8-10 questions in their assigned category. Phones are permitted only during this phase and during the break.
The Prenup Pub is conveniently located at 191 College Street, just a five-minute walk west of Queen’s Park subway station. There also is street parking available, especially on McCaul Street. We will be on ground floor of the pub, on your right as you walk in (next to the bar) or on the patio. View the map here.
Questions or concerns please contact Ken Lackman, Social Director at social@tbn.ca.

Registration deadline: Wednesday, 30 July, 2025
Continuing the tradition, this year we are going to take advantage of our closeness to downtown Peterborough. Cyclon volunteers will be hosting smaller group dinners in the neighboring restaurants and venues.
There are ten groups planned for Saturday night, and you are invited to get your friends (new or old) together to sign up for an enjoyable dining experience. Each group will only accommodate a limited number of people. Sign up beforehand, to avoid disappointment. Billing will be individual; at each dinner venue, so your cost will be determined by your selections.

Sunday Urban Roller - Richmond Hill and Dale
Please note: You must register to participate on the ride. Registration is free for TBN members. Non-members can now purchase a 30 day trial membership for $10 here and then can register for the ride. If you cannot attend, please cancel your reservation by Saturday. Attendance will be checked at the start. AIf you register after 8 am on the day of the ride bring a copy of the confirmation email, either printed or electronic, to show to the ride leader.
For those of us not at Cyclon we have this TBN Urban Roller ride. We will head north to enjoy the gently rolling hills around the Richmond Hill area. As you'll see, it's called Richmond Hill for a reason. We will see a lot of different types of suburbia, but also some of the older and prettier sections. The route was revised last year and was considered an improvement. The revision eliminated a problematic section along the King-Vaughan line that was only two lanes wide with 70-80 km/hr traffic and a loose gravel shoulder. It also eliminated some hills, although not all of them. It also took us through a much nicer section of Richmond Hill, more in keeping with the Urban Roller rides. After lunch at Tim's it's a long ride down Keele that is mostly downhill, a reward of sorts for the earlier stuff.
Lunch is at Tim Hortons a bit past the halfway point . You may still wish to bring your own lunch and snacks to avoid lineups and contact.
Meet for a 10 am departure from the commuter parking lot of the Finch TTC station, located on Hendon Avenue, on the west side of Yonge Street, one block north of Finch Avenue West.
If the ride is cancelled due to weather or for other reasons, notice of the cancellation will be posted on the website around 8 am Sunday. Please check before leaving for the ride.
