1. First is an entry level 46k loop (don’t believe distance represented on Google-18k+28K). Flat and fun, really tame compared to the super amazing rides listed next.
2. A great easy 60k ride through scenic Cantley, the fastest growing part of the Ottawa/Gatineau region. Route is approximately 60k.
3. The Eardley loop is a long time favorite of mine. It is approx 80k, however be warned, has a +-10k gravel section, as well as one of the steepest climbs in the area.
4. A great summertime loop with lakes and fairly quiet cottage roads, it is about 85k. This ride is a longstanding favorite of cool Ottawa riders.
5. A fantastic, quiet loop through Lac Des Loups (no pun intended). This ride is 154 km, and features a 12k gravel section at the north end of the 366 before hitting 303.
6. The best road ride in Eastern Ontario, 200k of pain, haha. This starts at the Parliament buildings, as I usually head out west from there.
