Touring
Count yourself in our weekend and mid-week tours of varying lengths and speeds through the rolling country around the GTA and beyond. You can go faster and longer with our Sportif Group, choose a moderate pace with Classic or pick Easy Rollers for slower and shorter rides. Details including dates, start times and departure points are found on our website.
  • Easy Roller rides are shorter distance and slower paced rides suited for members who are new to cycling. The tour leader will limit the distance to approximately 50-60km and maintain a speed below 20 km/h.

  • Touring rides are our tour rides in which speeds may average 22-25km/h.


  • Classic rides are our tour rides in which speeds may average 25 to 28 km/h.


  • Sportif rides are our fastest non-racing rides. Speeds may exceed 28 to 30 km/h.


  • Mid-Week rides generally have no scheduled leaders, the distance/destination/pace will be decided upon by the group which shows up on that day. These rides should accommodate Touring, Classic & Sportif.


  • Tuesday and Thursday evening rides are not listed on the schedule, but there is always a ride departing the Sobey’s Plaza at 6:00 pm. These are fast paced rides suitable for those who like to work hard.


  • Sunday morning rides are cruising rides of various distances up to 100 km. A tour leader and the destination will be determined by the group which shows up on that day. Rides will depart from the Sobey's Plaza at 9:00 am.
