      <title>Evan Thomas to Interlakes Kananaskis, Int, 76km, 700m, VicUrban (Monday, October 05, 2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;br&gt;
Coordinator: Vic Urban&lt;br&gt;
Distance 76 km&lt;br&gt;
Pace: &amp;nbsp;22+ kms/hr &amp;nbsp;Intermediate&lt;br&gt;
Elevation 700+ m&lt;br&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This ride starts at the Evan Thomas parking area&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Ride out and back on this scenic Kananaskis route, and as such there will be no sweep though there are a few hills.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Prepare for cool riding in the mountains, however with a forecast high of 20 C it might be the last ride of the season. There will be a small stop at the lakes for a refuel before the return. Bring your own food and beverages as there are very few places to buy something. Also there are bears in the area, so be aware.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Tailgating afterwards&lt;/p&gt;

  &lt;p style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;This is a weekly ride in Springbank, focused on scenic routes, hill training, and intervals where we crank up the intensity.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
