Ride report from Peter Leiss:

Well 4 mad men aka Randonneurs started today. One dropped off early and Henk turned back about 10 k short of Erin. William and myself carried on for the whole ride. 40 K winds from the west gusting to 52. The temp never got above 3 c and we got to experience snow, sleet and ice pellets. As William said this was good training for the upcoming Gentle Start. We got to climb Bell School line max Grade 23%, Appleby Line Max Grade 21% and 6th Line Max Grade 19%
