This is easy cycling along local trails and country roads of Thornbury, Meaford, Collingwood, Blue Mountain and Wasaga Beach—we try to avoid steep hills. Hybrid bikes with various speeds are preferred as they have wider tires than a road bike. 

We usually begin in the month of May and have a meeting to review bicycle safety. Our rides take place on Monday mornings beginning at 9:30 AM (depending on the weather we may start at 10:00 AM). We cycle for an hour and a half then have a coffee at a local restaurant or a member's home. Since we begin our rides at various locations it is important that you have transportation to get your bike to the starting point. 

We sometimes venture further afield just to add some interest to our rides. For example, in the past, we have driven to Midland, Anten Mills and Owen Sound.

Information about the individual rides will be sent weekly by email to all members of the group and includes a link to register. Please make sure you always bring your PROBUS emergency contact card with you!

    We are excited to begin a new season of recreational cycling. Our first ride will be on Monday, May 11, at 10:00 a.m. We will meet in the parking lot of the Craigleith Depot, and ride along the Georgian trail toward Collingwood for about 9 km. Then we will turn around and retrace our steps. Don and Mary Ann have invited us to meet at their chalet,  just a few minutes from The Depot, for a chat about the Recreational Cycling group with coffee and muffins.   

    Please arrive 10 minutes early.

    Please also 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 cancellation notice  will be sent by 8:00 a.m. on the day.
