Event Details
Think you're up for the ultimate Great Cycle Challenge?
Join us for an epic 260 km ride from Waterloo to Goderich and back—all in one day.
We'll leave RIM Park at 2:00 AM, stop at Tim Hortons in Milverton for breakfast, have lunch in Goderich, and, if all goes to plan, celebrate with dinner at Anna Mae's before the final ride home.
This is an advanced endurance ride. Expect up to 20 hours in the saddle and about 8,000 calories burned. A support vehicle will meet us in towns on the return trip, but every rider must have a backup plan if they're unable to finish.
Every finisher will receive a custom wooden medal.
Not ready for 260 km? Join us for part of the journey! Every kilometre helps raise awareness for kids fighting cancer.
