Date: Thursday June 3 (rain date, Wednesday June 9)

Meeting Time: 10:30am
Meeting Place: Munn's Church, 5 Dundas St E (corner of Dundas and 6th Line in Oakville)
A brief description of the ride: Either a 28km or 40km ride north from 6th Line and Dundas to Hornby Park across from the Halton Hills Generating Station where we'll have a complimentary catered lunch and then ride back down to Oakville. The 40km route takes a more circuitous route up and follows the same route back down as the 28km route. While we eat lunch, the honourary chair of the R2CC will tell us a bit about the generating plant across the road. Fees for this ride have been WAIVED for all R2CC participants and as well, a sponsor has offered a $20 R2CC donation to any registered riders who bring a completed donation form to the ride. The ride is actually a fundraiser for Citizens for Clean Air - a group dedicated to bringing in regulations about how close power plants can be to homes in Ontario (incredibly, there are no such regulations about gas fired plants in Ontario).
