Route Inspiration
Though we’re not riding together in the next few weeks, here are some route options to inspire places to ride on your own. If you come across another club member, use your discretion if deciding to ride together. In the very least, please do not ride side-by-side anywhere. 2m physical distancing must be maintained between all non-household riders.

A 60km loop starting at the Olympiette Centre:

Saturday Zwift Ride
The weather forecast for this Saturday is looking lousy for anyone venturing outdoors. I’ll host a Zwift ride at 10:30am. Expect to receive an invite from me if you signed up for the winter Meetups. If you didn’t get your name on that list, but would like to be added, just send me an email before Saturday morning: coaching@velocitycyclingclub.ca
Is your training making you happy? Happy people still get frustrated from time to time but they stay determined and persevere.
