Our Goal
The goal of the Newmarket eGALS is to instruct and inspire female cyclists of all abilities to ride more confidently in a safe and inclusive environment. This is not a learn to ride program, but rather a women’s only riding group. We love to ride our bikes, any speed.
​
Our Mission
We are dedicated to providing equal opportunities for women to gain riding confidence on the roads in and around York Region. Our time together will include clinics on bike maintenance and cycling tips, while improving bike handling and group riding skills.
Our Rides
The Newmarket eGALS meet up and ride out at 6:00PM on Wednesday evenings & Saturday Mornings at 8:30am throughout the summer at Vandorf Park on Woodbine Ave, north of Vandorf Sideroad near the Whitchurch Stouffville Museum. Again at the same starting location, Friday morning Breakfast Club rides will leave at 6am --> Check Socials for more details such as cancellations.
This is not a learn to ride program, but it is a social ride. Average pace is 24-26km/h per week depending on the route, distance and ride objective. Road bikes only during group rides.
​
If you need to leave the ride early, please inform the Group Leader prior to the start of the ride.
