I’m gravel riding in the Island Lake Wilderness Area on Saturday August 24th. I plan on leaving the Train Station Bike & Bean in Upper Tantallon at 10 AM. Feel free to join me.
The route I have planned is about 25km with about 1000 feet of climbing, mainly on logging roads. If the group is feeling good we can add a little more distance. The pace will be relaxed, no drops, and we’ll regroup at the top of each hill.
Post-ride will be at Cavicchi’s or the Bean. Parking is limited at the Bike and Bean so please try to park elsewhere. There’s SMB trail parking behind Redmond’s Home Hardware a couple of minutes up the road.
Where: Island Lake Wilderness Area aka Bowater. Meet at the Bike and Bean
Difficulty: Beginner/Intermediate
Notes: You don’t need a gravel bike for this ride, your mountain bike will do just fine. Bring sunscreen and bugspray, water, and a repair kit.
This is not an official ECMTB ride.
