Route Map
The 4-day EPIC tour travels over the scenic country roads of Ontario’s serene rural regions. Starting in at the Richmond Hill Country Club, north of Toronto, you’ll first wind eastward through rolling farm country to Peterborough. The next day will be a loop exploring the backroads of the Kawarthas. Turning north, the route leads into the Haliburton lakes region then points south for homeward leg on Sunday. There's no camping this year but you're welcome to pitch a tent on Saturday night at Camp White Pine in Haliburton.
Distances to suit everyone.
The primary route each day is a rewarding "Metric Century" distance of 100km. The ride is fully supported by patrol vehicles and cheerful tour marshals that ride along with each group of 10-15 cyclists. Several well-stocked rest stops dot the daily course to keep you in good form. For those looking to test their legs further, step up to the meandering "Century" of 100 miles (160km). For riders that quailify, go for broke on the excessively long 200km "Extended" route. Whatever your ability, you’re sure to share the journey with someone traveling at your speed.
