  • Route: All new roads for our 15th anniversary ride. Leaving our start venue, the ride will be going east across the top of Toronto into the Rouge River Valley. We will pass through the hamlets of Claremount, Ashburn, Raglan, Burketon and Purple Hill to our comfort stop at Crabby Joe’s Port Perry. Back in the saddle, the route will meander through the up and down hidden scenic back roads to our post-ride party at the Markham Fairgrounds. You’ve still got an afternoon of partying ahead, with great food, music, plenty of entertainment and the draw for our Grand Prize.
