RECREATIONAL AND COMPETITIVE CYCLING SINCE 1974
The Cobourg Cycling Club — a locally-based, volunteer-run, non-profit organization affiliated with the Ontario Cycling Association. The club offers rides several days of the week, covering a wide range of fitness and abilities and offering its members great opportunities for skill enhancement and socializing. From casual-paced to competitive road cycling; mountain bikes to time-trialing, we work to appeal to all interest levels and age groups in Cobourg and the surrounding area.

NORTHUMBERLAND HILLS CYCLING CLUB
The Northumberland Hills Cycling Club, formerly known as the Northumberland Hills Cycling Community was founded in Spring of 2010 by members of the citizens group Sustainable Cobourg, in response to observation there was a need for a recreational cycling club for cyclists of any skill level. Together, an informal ride was planned for late April of 2010 to see how much interest the group might generate.
The inaugural ride was a phenomenal success. Fifteen eager people of all ages showed up and there was no looking back. What began as an informal group of cyclists meeting weekly for a ride around the Northumberland Hills area soon grew into a group of keenly interested cyclists who enjoyed the casual and recreational nature of the rides. Soon the Northumberland Hills Cycling Community website went live, bringing the cyclists an opportunity to communicate with others and plan routes and rides.

Gravel – Paris to Ancaster
For over a century the roads of northern Europe have been home to the toughest bicycle races in the world. The most famous of these, Paris to Roubaix, takes place each spring over brutal cobblestone roads that have been preserved in their historic condition for over 100 years. Inspired by this classic race, the Paris to Ancaster has taken place since 1994 over the roughest farm lanes, trails and gravel roads we can find. We welcome the largest field of riders assembled in Canada for the Paris to Ancaster 2025. Join us on April 27 2025 to become part of the history of this unique race, Canada's Spring Cycling Classic.
Gravel – Almonte Paris-Roubaix
Like its inspiration, the 34rd Ottawa Valley Paris Roubaix Cyclosportif mixes well paved roads with abominations. The route includes mud, gravel, sand, rocks, unmaintained roads, woodlots and one switchback climb. The classic route is about 80 kilometers. A shorter 40 km is an option for riders and includes 3 woodlots. Note: Riders aged 11 to 16 (turning 11 to 16 in 2025) are eligible to ride only the 40 km route, and must have an adult riding with them, or be in a preorganized group with at least one adult. U19 riders (turning 17 or 18 in 2025) may ride the long course. This is a cyclosportif ride, not a race. The roads are open to other users. All traffic laws, including stopping at stop signs and staying to the right, apply to all riders at all times. Marshals may stop or delay riders for safety reasons. Any rider who disobeys their instructions will be immediately removed from the event. There will be no motorized support, partly because some of the roads are not passable for motor vehicles. We strongly recommend that riders choose cycling equipment for its robustness, not its lightness. Any kind of bicycle may be used, although gravel/cyclocross bikes with large section road tires (at least 28 mm wide) are generally the best choice. Fixed gear bicycles must be equipped with at least a front working brake as is required under the Highway Traffic Act. Tri Bars are not allowed – you can’t go all Ted King here. It is each rider’s personal responsibility to ensure that their bicycle is legal and safe for road use in Ontario.
