The move was done mostly due to club member availabilty but there maybe some other benifits to the slightly later date. For one we are more likely to have a day when it does not snow and we may have a longer route with more offroad sections.

More details to released soon but for now please pencil in the date on your ride calender.]]> 9 Tue, 11 Feb 2020 02:22:57 +0000 https://www.odsc.on.ca/index.php?threads/2019-bethany-27th-april-sat.23552/ https://www.odsc.on.ca/index.php?threads/2019-bethany-27th-april-sat.23552/ y2ktm y2ktm Well the weather is finally looking more favorable and the snow is melting fast.
