Alpe de Zwift
The developers and artists at Zwift have created a new route, Alpe de Zwift. They imported GPS data from Alpe d’Huez. Their ride starts at sea level in the jungle of Watopia, but quickly climbs up above the snow line. The scenery may not match the real thing, but the road has the same 21 switchbacks and the same profile.
You have to be a Level 12 Zwifter to ride it, unless you join a group ride that’s going.
2018 Ride Schedule On-line

Chatsworth Concession 8 Reconstruction
Concession 8, the road that goes south from Desboro through Mooresburg, is being resurfaced. It is currently torn up and barricaded from Side Road 6 to Side Road 8, which is just south of Mooresburg. It can still be crossed using Side Road 7.
It will remain a gravel (tar and chip) road according to the Chatsworth Township announcement, so it will be a while before it is ride-able again.
Fresh Tar and Gravel – Lindenwood Hill
Cycling friends: Be aware that at the bottom of Lindenwood hill there is fresh tar and gravel. SLOW DOWN. Continues to next corner. Dusty too.
