With the summer like conditions expected this
weekend, it is a perfect time visit
Canmore/Banff.
We'll start at 11:00 am from the Camore Visitor Centre. Great news!! Our first stop will be an optional quick visit to the new Canmore Brewing Company on Railway Street. They are currently under construction but the owner would love to say hi!! Following that, we head out on the Legacy Trail into the Banff Ave Brewing Company where we will enjoy $4 pints and 50% off all food (confirmed!). Stop is optional and please pay individually. Fast riders can add Lake Minnewanka to the start and Tunnel Mountain to the finish. Finally, we will try to scope out the new Canmore Brewing Company for future reference. The Banff Legacy Trail, built to commemorate Parks Canada’s 125th anniversary, was completed in the fall of 2010. It is a scenic three metre wide, 22 kilometres-long, commuter trail. This ride is open to all riders/abilities with a longer, faster option and a slower, direct option for others. Non riders are welcome to meet up in Banff as well. | |||||||
