Seems Like Y`all had fun!
A crispy start to today's ride. The fall colours were full on and likely gave us the most beautiful ride of the year. Ten riders today made for a quick pace out of the city en route to the main rendezvous on Appleby Line. There was lots of debate on the actual incline but the consensus was that it is seriously steep!
Sorry about the change of parcours for the ride back and double sorry for not checking out Derry Rd / Trafalgar...both get the "sketchy" section of the day prize. Better reconnaissance next time.
Congrats to Christine on a solid performance.......good luck in Italy.
Thanks Dan for the I.T. help along the way.

Great Ride - Thanks James!
I set a personal best for downhill speed of 74.29 kph. That was something to remember for me and likely the people in the Honda SUV I was drafting :-)
Fab ride, didn't want to wear the booties but glad I did, great climb X 2 but I admit to a little trouble this time, must practice. Great coffee shop, lots of room to move, friendly folks and a toilet. Good job Megan. DS
