Routes and Schedule:

ROUTES SUBJECT TO TWEAKING. PLEASE DO NOT DOWNLOAD UNTIL CLOSER TO THE DATE!!!!

600km Brevet
Date: June 16
Route: Heaven and Hill
Start Time: 5:00am
Start Location: Best Western Stoneridge Inn
Route Description:This figure-8 600 is so-named because the first 350km leg is heavenly flat, as it heads west out toward Chatham. It follows the St. Clair river up to Sarnia, before returning to London. Riders who have a hotel room at the Stoneridge Inn will be able to leverage this control with a mid-ride shower and nap before proceeding on to the hillier (but still not very hilly) segment. The route stretches all the way out to Waterford where you'll ride the paved-over rail trail north to Branford and meandering back to London.

400km Brevet
Date: June 19
Route: Eurotrip
Start Time: 6:00am
Start Location: Best Western Stoneridge Inn
Route Description: Ever notice that Ontario has so many little towns named after European capitals? On this route, your brevet card is going to be your passport around Europe. Riders will start in London of course, and proceed through Paris, Lisbon, Dublin, Brussels, and Zurich, before returning back to London. This route makes heavy use of photo controls, using town signs as your landmark proof of passage. However, the route sheet is marked with recommended resupply stops along the way.

300km Brevet
Date: June 21
Route: Prettiest Town
Start Time: 7:00am
Start Location: Best Western Stoneridge Inn
Route Description : Type "the prettiest town in Canada" into Google, and it will tell you where you're headed to on this out-and-back 300km ride.

200km Brevet and 66.6km Populaire
Date: June 22
Route: Four Ports
Route: Devil's Beach Sprint
Start Time: 8:00am
Start Location: Best Western Stoneridge Inn
Route Description : Inspired by the Three Ports Tour fondo, I needed to add a fourth port in order to bring this route up to a brevet-sized ride. You'' hug the north shore of Lake Erie, tagging ports Stanley, Bruce, Burwell, and Rowan before doubling back to London. We're also running a 66.6km populaire that nips into Port Stanley before returning. If you can't make it out for the full brevet, come and ride this club-sized ride and enjoy a day at the beach!
