Parking spot is at the Shame Homes YMCA in Rocky Ridge. Meet in the NW corner of the parking lot, 15 minutes prior to the ride start.  No E-bikes.

There are 6 cygnets this year in the slough on Lochend Road/766.  This is an out and back route. There is no sweep. Turn around at any point.  The ride can be extended to Madden making the ride 100 km. We will cycle from the Shane Homes Rocky Ridge YMCA north on Rocky Ridge Road.  Turn Left onto Aspen Drive NW.  Right onto Range Road 25.  Thru Church Ranges via Church Ranges Blvd. Turn North on Bearspaw Rd.  Left onto Township Road 262.  Riding west to Glendale Road.  Follow Glendale north to Lochend Road.  Lochend Road can be busy. Turn north on Lochend Road until the large slough.  View the swans and cygnets.  Continue on Lochend Road until you are ready to turn around.  I plan on riding 60 to 70 km depending on weather and group.

Newcomers welcome, however please contact the coordinator in advance if you are unsure about your skill or fitness level for the ride.
