The BT700 Grand Depart is Sunday June 16th, at 8:00 AM in St Jacobs (near Eco Cafe). I’ll aim to be at the outlet mall for 7:45, then we can ride over to the Village.
As we’ve done in previous years, the plan is for a group of us to join in and lead out the BT700’ers, probably all the way to Listowel, then come back. We’ll very likely have lunch in Listowel.
Pace will be in the intermediate range, maybe little slower, maybe a little faster. We can let the bikepackers draft us
Since we’ll be among a whole bunch of other riders, this won’t be an official club ride.
I made a few changes to the route we’ve used before. The way out to Listowel is of course the same, following the BT700. But I made some changes on the way back from previous years, just to mix it up a little.
