Note 9:30 Start

We will ride the rail trail from Owen Sound to Shallow Lake  The trail is a multi-use so not as good as the Georgian Trail, some ruts and puddles but  bike friendly with a long easy climb as we leave OS and flat after that, it is  primarily treed canopy with an open area of swampy meadow views. We'll also take the short side trail to actually view Shallow Lake, a well hidden gem. Then we return to the parking site  .  The total distance is 28 kms, there is an coffee shop in Shallow Lake so we will take a break there and for those who wish, we will go for Lunch at the Airport on Hwy 26 on our way home.

Directions and parking:  Follow Hwy 26 to downtown Owen Sound,  cross the river bridge and take the second right onto 2nd Avenue West which becomes the Eddie Sargent Park Way, after 1 1/2 km turn  right into the Kelso Beach Park (GPS Location). From Thornbury it will take about an hour to drive, depending on traffic of course.

Please bring your Probus ID card with you, as it contains important emergency contact information.

Please note that if this Session needs to be cancelled due to weather a Notice will be sent by 8:00 a.m. on the date.
