Beaver Valley Probus Club

Back Roads Cycling takes place on Thursday mornings @ 9:30 AM with various starting points. Cyclists must be able to transport their bikes to these start points. As the season unfolds and the outdoor temperatures increase we will begin the rides earlier.

The group is suited for Moderate Level riders using road bikes or hybrids. Recently we have had a few “e-bikes” join our group. This group is designed for road bikes.

Average ride times are 2 - 3 hours with average distances covered 25 km - 45 km. The distances increase further into the season as we strengthen. The rides take place along less travelled, paved, county roads. Some of the routes include rolling hills with beautiful views.

The average ride speed is approximately 20 - 24 km/hr. We try to maintain a nice steady pace. The speeds do vary. We do our best to ride at a speed comfortable for the group. The faster riders tend to go on ahead and ride at their own pace.

We do our best to include a coffee break midpoint into the rides or completing the ride with a “cuppa” at a nice cafe.

We start on time. I encourage all riders to arrive 15 mins early to ensure they are ride ready.

Hoping to begin our Back Roads Cycling season in May.
Would love to see you there.
