Cycling Dudes: August 13 - John Crawford’s BQ Ride

20 cyclists met at John Crawford’s north-end home at 9:30 for a 30 km ride to Lakefield returning to John’s home for a poolside BQ lunch. From the Crawford home we cycled north to Cumberland Ave then west to Franklin Dr & south to Hilliard St. Headed north on Hilliard St for 5 km cycling up 2 small hills to the Rotary Bridgenorth Trail. The Bridgenorth Trail ends at the 7th line in Bridgenorth. Rode east on the 7th Line across Centre Line to the busy Lakefield Rd into Lakefield across the river to Water St & down to the RGWT. John led a group on River Rd while the rest cycled down the RGWT to Nassau Rd thru Trent U over the pedestrian bridge to Water St before returning to John’s for a swim & a BQ lunch hosted by John with assistance from Bill McKnight, Garnet Wray & Brian Healey. We lucked out on the weather avoiding rain although dark clouds did come into view. We had done basically the same route in May from the Riverview Zoo
