Itinerary: | |||||||
We'll be starting from the Glennfield
parking lot across from the McInnis and
Holloway Funeral Home – Fish Creek Chapel 14441
Bannister Road Southeast.
Heading west on the paved trails, under Macleod Trail we’ll continue on single track on the south side of the creek. The weather man is calling for +22 Friday so we'll have a nice warm evening. This ride will have several technical sections, lots of roots, 5 to 10 minutes climbs but nothing too extreme. Trails are in great shape. We'll be making the odd stop after climbs and a snack break about the half way point at Bridge #1. *Please be advised that you must stay with the group. Fish Creek Park Single Track Trail Map This will be a medium to fast pace ride and riders are expected to have some Mountain Bike experience and a good fitness level. The elevation gain for this ride is around 800 to 1200 ft over approximately 2.5 hours, 17km to 22km range overall. You will not need your lights for this ride we will be back before dark, around 9:15pm. Sunset is 9:30pm. Come out for a spin, it's a FUN route and a great workout. Robbie requested we have a tailgate BBQ. It's a little late notice but I figured why not. Don't worry about bringing anything, I have the BBQ already packed and enough for everyone to have a bite. Hopefully you can stick around for a 1/2 hour or so after the ride. See you tonight! Text me if you have any questions, 403-680-9516 | |||||||
