The ride leaves at 6:00 pm every night now.

Instead of setting the start time later as the days get longer, they instead add more and more loops to increase the ride length.

tiny tim indeed has been watching, and I'm pleased to say: he's happy with our appearance, discipline and well being. Kudos this year go to most improved riders: Nando and Fatboy. Condolences go to Will for losing some skin last week.

Ride still leaves@6PM sharp every Thursday. Next Thursday, August 27th, please come to the OFR dressed in your oldest (and possibly ugliest) looking cycling outfit. Heck, bring your old steely 12-speed down tube shifting CCM/Centurion! Let's have some safe and collective fun. We may as well convert some of bystanders, tricking them into coming out on their dusty bikes.

Thanks to all riders for keeping it safe and fun, as much as possible in current riding conditions.

Rider with the best outfit/cycle combo will receive valuable reward, personally donated by great Johnny Bunco himself; proprietor of legendary, and still operating, High Park Cycle!

P.S. This will be something never seen before in Southern Ontario, guaranteed!
