Itinerary: | |||||||
Sad but true - fall is here and hence, night riding is upon us. Bring your (serious, off-road) lights and let's get out there.
This ride is 60% pavement and the rest some little used pathways. Usually an interesting route, we've seen Owls, Porcupines, Coyotes, Rabbits, small bush bashes (they though they were getting busted, it was total deer-in-the-headlights) and one naked couple (probably too cold for that so don't get your hopes up).
From the meeting point we will ride South along the west side of the Bow, cross over at Ogden to the East side and down to Riverbend Park. Then up through the neighbourhood, across Glenmore to the Irrigation Canal, past Max Bell, through the Zoo past the Crack addicts (just kidding, it's too cold for them) and back to meeting point. Total distance is ~35km but an easy 35km as there is little elevation change and a fair amount of pavement. Here's the weather forcast - no excuses there: | |||||||
| |||||||
How to Get There: | |||||||
Event Directions: | Sam Livingstone Fish Hatchery - Just off Blackfoot Trail about 400m West of the Deerfoot ramps, take a right (North) at the lights (at big, new condos) and go 250m straight to the large parking area. | ||||||
