Gravel ride – Tara to Chesley with post ride Breakfast
I am pumped about this ride!
With Joanne Barber’s encouragement to ride from Tara and Mark Walker’s reconnaissance help, we’ve put together a truly fantastic ride! Thank you Joanne and Mark.
The roads are nearly perfect – generally smooth, free of recent grading work, and exceedingly quiet.
This is a 52 km mostly flat route with occasional rolling hills (371 m of climbing). The route runs south towards Chesley on SR 25 and returns north to Tara on a parallel SR 20. A truly beautiful rural setting with big open sky (and yes, probably some wind) and a few woodlot sheltered sections.
Meet in front of Country Cousin’s Diner (43 Yonge St N, Tara) and after the ride we can pop in for coffee, snack or a second breakfast. There’s a small municipal parking lot across the street just south of the diner.
Gravel nirvana awaits those who attend 🙂
