Beamsville

Plan A is to ride to  Beamsville with stop at Conversations. If members of the group are time-limited or need to go shorter, Plan B is to ride to RPM Bakehouse in Jordan (~85 km)

weather permitting.

To Beamsville, Conversations cafe and back

Counterclockwise with a stop at 52K. Thanks for Bruce for this route which I am recycling.  

Clockwise route visiting some roads we haven't been using much lately. Coffee break at Conversations in Beamsville at km 52. This will be a B pace ride. Light winds and hIgh humidex expected. Hydration will be important. 

Winds coming from the north. Heading mostly west.

target: Jordan de la Ter Bakery

Check cue sheet for roads - basic route west & then back via Service Road, Lakeshore, Stewart, Queenston, Portage & back to Firemens Park.

To Beamsville via Hwy 20 Bridge, Holland - Rolland, Staff Winery, Ball's Falls, Fly Road, Locust's Lane, etc. Coffee at Conversations. Back along Greenlane, South Service Road, Port Dalhousie, Carlton Street Bridge, Mewburn

Clockwise route to Beamsville and back through Port Dalhousie. It will be a B ride at a B ride pace (27-29 km/h. It could be a bit higher with tailwinds and/or downhill stretches). You should be comfortable with the distance and pace. It will be a hot one, so be sure to take care of your hydration needs and keep an eye on your fellow riders for heat related issues..

Once across the Canal at hwy 20, we enter the rolling hills of Pelham and follow 16 road to Beamsville for a break at Tim's (around half way). Home is via Spring Creek Road ( a beautiful country road), Roland, Hansler, Hwy 20 etc.
