On Sunday, September 21st I will be leading a Caledon Trailway gravel ride from Terra Cotta. The ride follows county roads (gravel and paved) from Terra Cotta to Palgrave where it connects to the Caledon Trailway and follows the rail trail back to Terra Cotta. The gravel/trail ride is 81 km, with two thirds hard packed gravel trail and the balance paved road. Ideally, you should have a gravel road bike or a hybrid/mountain bike with a tire width of 30 – 35 mm. Expect an average pace of 20 – 22 km/hr, plus or minus. We will stop in Palgrave for a refreshmen

The defunct gravel event of the same name has been revived by yours truly for 2025 by combining/changing old routes into one day of epic gravel fun! Choose from distances of 107 km with a stop in Parkhill, or the shorter 53 km route (same starting point and time for each). Ilderton is about 2 hours from Niagara, hence the later start.
Come out for a great day on gravel, whether or not you're participating in the Sarnia Away Weekend!

The 160 km option of the solstice ride is for those that may be hesitant about completing a 200 km ride. The 160 km option essentially follows the same route as the 200 km option but will not go to Cayuga. At the 74 km mark, the 160 km riders will head south to Dunnville. The route is a counter clockwise loop starting at Firemen’s Park and the heading to Beamsville, onto Smithville, then to Dunnville, Port Colborne and back to Firemen’s Park.
