Rule V Ride
August 27, 2023 @ 10:00 - 17:00
Where: Staging from the Enjoy Centre in St. Albert’s Riel Industrial Park.
When: 10am – This is our departure time. Please arrive about 15 minutes before
What: A “hammer” session, as hard, long, or easy as the group decides. Here’s a suggested Strava Route for reference (and to help get you back if you get dropped): VCC Rule V Enjoy Centre Route The full route from the Enjoy Centre is about 100km long. Riders who live further west can consider meeting up somewhere along the way.
How: Please download the ride route if you think you might get lost. Show up rain or shine and be prepared to be fully self-supported. You might get left behind. If it’s raining … depending on how seriously everyone takes “Rule V,” you may or may not be the only one riding that day.
