Cycling

Our rides are all in London on paths with some street riding. Members of the group plan and lead the rides. Depending upon the route the person leading the ride has planned for that day. There may be more path riding than street riding or vice versa. The group often happily repeats some routes 3 times or more during a season. The average speed is around 15 km/hr and the distance is approx. 23-26 km. Rides are usually 2 - 2 1⁄2 hrs. long. We have rest breaks during the ride as needed and when we reach the halfway point to turn back to our starting point, we have a short break to relax and socialize.

Our group is currently full and cannot accept new riders for the remaining summer and fall. In April 2025, we will have our initial planning meeting and will establish our numbers and any possible vacancies at that time. In the meantime, you may contact the convenor to place your name on our wait list for future use.

The Pedal Pushers Cycling group is a cycling group that meets once a week on Wednesday morning from May till October. The rides are at a leisurely pace to enjoy the surrounding sites with a break somewhere in the middle of the ride.

Silver Spokes cyclists are a diverse group of cycling enthusiasts. We ride approx. 30 kms on Wed. mornings from May to Sept. at an average speed of 15 kph. with one long refreshment stop and several shorter ones. About half our rides are on off-road trails in London and the others are within 1 and a 1⁄2 hr drive of London. We avoid riding on roads, but sometimes must in order to get from one trail to another. Before COVID, we did some overnight trips and hope to once again in the near future. Helmets are mandatory. New members are welcome.

We are a friendly group of road cyclists. Our rides are typically from 45 to 80 kms long. We usually average about 23-25 km per hour and use group riding formation (we are happy to teach new members). Our members take turns choosing the ride meeting point and route. We like quiet country roads but sometimes need to ride a busier road to get to the next quiet one. We like to choose routes with a break for coffee halfway through. Rides are on Fridays from 8 am till when ever we finish. We currently have room in our group for more riders. If interested please contact one of the co-conveners.
