Our ride will start at Finch Subway Station. We will:
* Ride west along the Finch Hydro Corridor bike path to Black Creek Trail just south of York University

* Continue on city streets riding west and south the Humber Valley Trail just north of Lawerence Ave
* Head south on the Humber Valley and ride south to Old Mill Station.
Those who want can leave the ride here and get on the subway, having completed about 30 Km
* The rest of us will continue south on the Humber Valley to the Lakeshore
* Ride east on the Waterfront Trail to Bay St, Union Station and the subway
