Here's the route for tonight, see ya'll out there. There may be a blue sign or two that I missed when labeling.

Homage to the tour's stage three is being paid with the southermost road. Its newly paved, but really coarse pavement. Nice road, should be fun. Jay is going to HATE it. route

there is a Rockwood sign on hwy7. i think we should all agree not to sprint for it as it's a busy road and KOM right after anyway.

nice route, looking forward to it.

One small route suggestion....when we head south on 29 and get to 7 what if we just keep going south and turn left on indian trail and then turn right on that cool little road that goes into Eden mills (ash st.)which will dump us out on sideroad 32 and continue on. I know this will cut out a KOM which breaks my heart cause the the guelph line climb is truly one of my favourite climbs (massive sarcasm) but it will keep us off of Hwy #7.

Just sayin.

Primo suggestions.

HWY 7 isn't usually too bad in that stretch, but we do have lots of other KOMs to keep the heart-in-mouth feeling alive and well...

Ok, its only ~1km on 7 - lets do it. If anyone wants to bail on that KOM then they can do indian trail and we'll meet up at the stop sign a few km past the climb.


And agreed, no sprint on 7.

Pretty solid ride to night ladies and gents. Around 37km/hr .

Winner of all three KOM's and the final Arkel sprint was Anton "I'm on a rest week" Varabei.

But since he's on a rest week, his points don't really count, and should probably be donated to Rachel who hung tough for the whole ride and made it to the end after some close calls. Mad props.

Saw some new faces tonight too, hope to see them sometime again.

haha, I agree. I kindda cheated anyway by half-assing my pulls and making a dirty attack coming into Arkel. :P

So all points should definitely be donated to Rachel! Woo!!
