Itinerary:
Meet at 6:30 for a 6:45 sharp departure. If you think Edmonton is flat, you haven't looked hard enough. In a little over 20km, we will ride 6 killer hills. Starting at Brent's Stupid Hill (aka Wedgewood Heights), we will ride down into the ravine and grunt our way back up to Cameron Heights. Proceed through Cameron Heights to hook onto the next stretch of trail which will take us down into the river valley and across the ped bridge that crosses the river under the Anthony Henday. Climb back up the other side and head east for a relaxing flat bit, but then down again into Whitemud Ravine and... you guessed it... back up again. We'll turn around at 119 St and return the way we came... including back down and up in Whitemud Ravine, then the river valley at Anthony Henday, then Brent's Stupid Hill. Although we'll be doing some awesome hills, this event is not a race. We'll be traveling at our customary 16km/hour average pace. Faster folks are welcome to take off on ahead, but should know the route since the coordinator will not be with you.
Required Items to Bring: - Bike - Helmet NO EXCEPTIONS - Water - Basic repair kit - Laughs and Smiles Recommended Items to Bring: Use our Event Checklists to make sure you have everything you need.
