Calgary hills



Last Saturday, I did a little tour of Calgary. I wanted to explore a little route onto the Nose Creek path and then wind around to check out the route from Edworthy Park up to Edgemont. With all the people and dogs walking wherever they please on the paths, I don't advise ever doing serious training within the city. When Julie is able to do longer rides in the trailer, I'll need to know these scenic routes a bit better. I was out for just over two hours and did 52.8 km for an average of 25.7 km/h. I got in the climb up Edworthy but the path to the east back down to the river wasn't suitable for a road bike so I had to circle back to the main road up the park. I also climbed Home Road and up 53 Ave through Edgemont for a total of 470 m of climbing.
