Really good push from Moffat to Clyde Park... And a reward was waiting for us.

Rest Stop #2

One of the picturesque stops en route. We're at the Nassagaweya Presbyterian Church.

The rolling hills have started. We're flirting with the Escarpment, heading out towards Acton.

We're in the news!

The latest issue of Pedal magazine features a profile on the Bloor West Village Idiots team. It provides a little history on the group and our involvement in events like the Ride to Conquer Cancer.

The photos provided are from the 2009 Ride.

The night before (2011 edition)

RTCC #4 launches tomorrow. As with last year's ride, I and several of the Bloor West Village Idiots team are heading out on the 200 mile route to Niagara Falls tomorrow am. The weather forecast is somewhat cool for the weekend and there is a possibility of some wet weather tomorrow. Given how wet the spring has been this year, we're probably in decent shape.

I'll be posting the usual impressions and images from the road this weekend.

Stay tuned...
