Itinerary: | |||||||
This route is approximately 82km's long with 671m's of
elevation. I'm hoping for a pace of approximately 25km/h. The
ride to Turner Valley is quite scenic and by late September
there should be some nice fall colours. We will start by heading south down the 'Road to Nepal', west along Hwy 549, and then south along Hwy 22 until we arrive in Turney Valley. We will stop there for lunch, likely at Subway (or bring your own). Afterwards we will take the easy way back ;) and head north along Hwy 22 and then east along Hwy 22x. This event will be casual; riders can bike at their own pace and we will regroup at the major intersections. To begin we will meet at the parking lot at 37th street and Highway 22X (just past Spruce Meadows). Approximate timing: 10:30 am - leave parking lot 12:30 pm - arrive in Turner Valley for lunch 1:15 pm - depart Turner Valley(or earlier depending on the group) 2:30 pm - arrive back at our cars at 37st/Hwy 22x | |||||||
