Rides - Helene

• Ride with Dutch group - Oct 11, 2025. The ride will be from Lynn Valley Library to MONOVA at Lonsdale at around noon, ending at 1pm.

The ride format will be similar to how HUB's social rides work. I believe we are all certified ride leaders here. There will be 50 attendees. It would be GREAT if some more HUB members (especially North Shore Board members) join!

The route is here. We're going to weave through some residential streets from the library until we reach the Spirit Trail, where we will follow it all the way to Lonsdale.
