Itinerary:

From the parking lot at Ribbon Creek, we will ride up to and past Kananaskis Village on to Terrace Trail. We will stop for lunch by the suspension bridge over the Kananaskis River then return the same way.

The ride is about 20 kms with ~300 meters elevation. The Terrace Trail portion of the ride is a single track with enough twists and turns that it is not for beginners.

Our group is invited to join the mountain biking group led by Carol for an evening barbecue.
