Good Rides in Calgary

[Double A Ron]

Being new to the Calgary area, I need to know where some good day rides are. Please post your favorite and why..............db

I like the drive out to Elbow falls. Take Macleod trail south past 162 ave and make your first right. Should take you part spruce meadows and into kananaskis.

Why when someone posts something like this it gets no response? Is this forum not supposed to be about biking. But someone posts some crap about how bikers are great and cars suck, or cars are great and bikers are dangerous it gets four pages. Come on people, what are the good rides?????????

sometimes it takes longer then 10 min's for people to respond. Banff has some nice curvy roads that are usually fun on a nice day

^ Not on my motorcycle. Its frowned upon, I believe.

How long a ride were you looking for? The Highwood pass is one of my favourites.

Ok, went from cochrane through bragg creek, east on HWY 22, then south on 762, east on 549 by millarville, then hooked back up with HWY 22 back through bragg and to cochrane. Man that HWY 762 was a great ride, lots of twisties, and great for a short trip. Check it out.

go to groundpilots.com, it's been talked about lots.

762 is now a speed trap. residents out there have had it with bikes ripping up and down that highway.

also watch out for residents jumping out in front of you...happened to "someone" i know

if you want a day ride, head out west to Bow Valley Parkway. pretty much the best twisties we have in Alberta.
