WESTEND WRIDES
There are two weekly morning “Westend Wrides”, each one starting at Woodbine Park and winding through the West End of Kingston and Loyalist Township. Cruising over gently rolling hills through picturesque farm country and then returning along the shore of Lake Ontario makes for beautifully scenic rides.
On the mostly smooth backroads of these routes, car traffic is minimal. On the busier County roads, we ride comfortably and safely in single file on properly paved shoulders.
We encourage folks to take turns pulling at the front as well as helping with sweeping as needed. Designated regroup stops along the way keep everyone together and allow for water breaks and for catching your breath.
Westend Weekday Wriders
This weekday morning ride, typically on Wednesday, offers a satisfyingly brisk workout with 2 pace group options along a 52km loop. Sometimes, on the longer straight sections of this route, opportunity presents itself to create the synergy similar to that of riding in a Peloton. By combining the leg power of all riders while holding the group together we draft smoothly and carefully at speed. This is when the magic happens!
Westend Saturday Wriders
This Saturday morning social ride also offers 2 pace group options along a 70km loop that includes Greater Napanee and a coffee stop in the Village of Bath.
