*** Cancelled because of new Covid restrictions on outdoor gatherings ***

ROAD RIDE - LEVEL : Intermediate

Coordinator:  David Neame and Laurie MacAdams

Distance:   37 km with some steep hills

Pace:  Ride at your own pace.  No sweep.

Elevation Gain:  Lots of climbing heading west with grades over 11%, then a fast ride back

Meeting time:  11:45 for a noon start

Meeting place: meet at the gate closure, 20 km west of Turner Valley on Hwy. 546

WASHROOMS:  No outhouse at starting point.  Outhouse at Sheep Falls

The road is closed to cars until May 15, which makes for a nice quiet ride.  Nice pavement and great mountain scenery.  Ride at your own speed west along Hwy 546 for about 17 km to Sheep River Falls, where we will stop for lunch or a snack.  We will take a short 5-minute walk to the falls.  Those who want can ride the road for 3 more kms to the turnaround at Bluerock.

As this is an out-and-back ride with an obvious route, there will be no sweep.  Be prepared to be self-sufficient, with enough food and water, and be able to change your own flat tire if needed.

The ride is only 38 km, but if you want you can add more mileage at the end of the ride by doing an out-and-back towards Turner Valley.

Please follow the Covid rules and leave 2 meters between each other.
