- 10ACasual/102423.623.60Women on Wheels (WOW) Champlain CanalTerry Peters
Join me to explore a new-to-me out and back route that travels from Fort Edward to Fort Ann. This section of the Champlain Canalway Trail is historic as well as scenic. Our pace will be relaxed and allow time to soak in the sights. Since the route is a mix of stone and pavement, wider tires are recommended (super skinny racing tires would be a drag on the stone). There is also a 2 mile section with bigger stones that would not be fun on skinny tires. Elevation gain is practically none existant.
If you are new to WOW rides and keep intending to participate, consider this posting your nudge to sign up. Feel free to reach out to me if you have questions about the ride. My cell is 518 428 4069.
Bring hydration and an extra snack to enjoy at the waterside pavilion in Fort Ann. Also make sure your bike is in good working order.
The weather looks great, but if a cancelation is needed I'll do so by 7 am. Registered riders will automatically receive and email.
Note: This is a ride designed for women only. Our intention is to create safe, non-competitive, judgement free rides in an effort to build the community of women in our club.

They say that doing the same thing over again and expecting a different outcome is insanity. So I guess I'll schedule another ride for a rainy day. Watch your email for delay or cancellation.
A casual, social ride for those who don't want to chase the hammerheads up steep climbs. Inexperienced riders welcome and encouraged. Average target pace is 12 mph, but a bit slower or faster is fine. Routes are flat to rolling.Leader rides at the back, no one left behind. Rain cancels ride, cancellation posted by 8 am.
