About this event
RWGPS Route Links
The Routes It's our season opener today! Pump up those tires and get ready to enjoy another great season of rides through the scenic Kingston countryside. We're starting today in Odessa, and heading north on the great roads in Lennox & Addington county. The B, C and D routes will take a refreshments break in Yarker (see the picture below of the once magnificent mill in Yarker), while the A route will stop in Tamworth at the A1 Corner Restaurant. All of the routes will return past our local cheese factory in Wilton established in 1867!
