18 cyclists met Robin at Baxter Creek on a another ideal for cycling for a 40 km ride thru the hills of Cavan-South Monagahn Twp. From the golf club we cycled west for 3 km on Cedar Valley Rd to Hutchison Dr where 3 cyclists rode north on Hutchison to Syer Line for a ride of 30 km. Robin led us south on Hutchison to Cty Rd 21 then east across Hgw 28 (where Cty Rd 21 becomes Wallace Pt Rd) to Scriven Rd which was being graded so mud was flying!. This is the start of several uphill climbs. Turned east off Scriven onto the 3rd Line for a 3 km ride to Cty Rd 2 which winds its way for 10 km before reaching Baileboro. This section has 2 long hill climbs that provide stunning views of the countryside & Rice Lk. Continued west thru Baileboro on Carmel Line to Brackenbridge Dr & north for a slight jog east to Hutchison then north across Cty Rd 21 to Cedar Valley Rd & the return to the golf club for a sumptuous patio lunch. Thanks to Robin for leading the ride & making reservations for lunch. This is a spectacular ride & the hills are not difficult if you take your time & make frequent drink stops
