Wed June 23 - Peter Hamley's Waterfront Trail Ride

 On an ideal day for cycling we met Peter at Lakeview Park in Oshawa for a 50 km ride to the Ajax Waterfront Park & back on the gorgeous Waterfront Trail a linear park which for most of the ride overlooks Lake Ontario. After the ride we had a picnic lunch in the park.

Wed June 17 Beavrmeade to Lang on PHTCT

 7 of us met at Beavermeade for a 30 km ride in sunshine when rain had been in the forecast. We cycled on the TCT to Nelson Rd north to Allandale Rd for a ride into Lang then out to Cty Rd 6 for a ride back to the TCT & a return ride to Beavermeade.  

This section of the trail is in great shape but east of Lang beavers are causing flooding

Wed June 10 - Beavermeade to Lakefield

 Bill, Dave M., Steve, & Dale met at Beavermead. After a brief shower just before 9:30, they rode to Lakefield, went across the bridge & turned right on Clementi St. which took them to Lakefield Park for a cycle on the trail around the park, stopping briefly at a viewing tower overlooking the wetland. Bill said they took their time cycling back, stopping at the gazebo on River Rd. The total was 40 Km. Although it was overcast, there was no rain the whole ride. The photos were taken from the viewing platform.
