There is lots of high speed loops and hard climbs on the side with the lake. If you cross over the Hyway and hoop into the bush there is lots of technical riding for all levels of riders. I must say this is the best part of riding Guelph Lake. Park at Riverside Park off Speedvale Rd. Follow bike path over Woodlawn Rd.
Technical section runs along bank of the river.
This section on the way to Guelph Lake can humble you. Tight rocky sections, cat walking fallen trees and a teeter add to an excellent ride at the lake. Take the little longer drive to the Dryden, Sudden, and Little tract or the Hydro Cut. It didn't feel like 10 kms but fun anyway. Straight to the back where there is actually some slightly technical riding.
