First ride of the 2024 season (weather permitting)

We will ride a completely flat route to Pearce Estates, stop for a snack, potty break and return to Carburn along the same route.
The route goes south from Carburn, across the pedestrian bridge to the dog park then swings north and parallels the bow river all the way to Pearce Estates. We return along the same route. The distance is about 24 KM.
