Thanks to all who came out to the first Dirty Thursday MTB Group Ride of 2013 and to Pete Hennessy for leading.  It was a great ride (always is!).

Last Saturday some fortunate CCC members had the opportunity to go and ride at one of only 2 velodromes in all of Ontario.  Being one of the shortest tracks in North America the banking in the corners is EXTREMELY steep at 50 degrees and there are a few pictures that you can really tell! Check out the pictures and enjoy!

The morning air was cold but that didn’t stop 17 Cobourg Cycling Club members from layering up and coming out to our first cyclcross event at Sinclair Park. A great group and a fun course made for an amazing day.

Thanks to Pete Hennessy for spearheading the idea and designing the course and to everyone who helped set up and take down. I hope everyone’s looking forward to the next one!

5 of us headed out this morning for a beautiful, brisk, fall ride. The sun was shining, birds were chirping and we were spinning our way along some of my favourite back roads.

Great ride everyone, thanks for coming out.

10 CCC members came out today for the first gravel ride of the fall all with different riding abilities and a nice mix of bikes ranging from cross, to mountain and even a couple single speeds. We were treated to sunshine, great road conditions and spectacular views which left nothing but smiles on everyone’s faces!

Thanks to all who came out and to Pete for leading, stay tuned for more great fall riding coming soon!

Amazing ride!

Great September weather took us to Brighton for a loop around the Park, and then for coffee. We all rode together, no one dropped. We had some fun along the way too. Louis took some sprint points. Pink Jersey and ‘all. Next time it’ll be a green. Jamie’s theory “don’t let the sprinters sprint!” Riding up the road to take away the advantage. Got news for you J, that only works once. Peter got in mix with a sneak attack at the last possible second. Jeff took some self loathing points, working the crowd!
12 of us made the coffee stop in Brighton. We had the entire patio to ourselves. Treats and java fuelled the ride back. Everyone took pulls at the front, our double paceline riding is really evolving and looking great. Thanks again, that was just plain fun.
Final points.

Hey – it’s my ride – I make the decisions!

Ride bike – go fast.

The weather was perfect today for Mich’s tour out North of Newcastle and the riders of both routes were treated to some great roads and breathtaking scenery.

The 95km loop tore the legs off of us with over 1000m (3500feet) of climbing while the other group was feeling strong and ended up tacking on an additional 10km to their route to do 67km total! Both loops took us through some beautiful neighbourhoods, great country roads and rewarded our hard work up the climbs with some fantastic views. We all showed up back at Mich and Melanie’s tired, hungry, and happy where we were treated to some good eats and good company.

Thanks to all for coming out and a big thanks to Mich and Mel for hosting.

It was a beautiful evening for a ride and we had a phenomenal turnout for the President’s Cruise. Check out the photo gallery below as Louis lead the group North  out of Cobourg, into Baltimore and back along some beautiful scenic roads.
