B.C. Randonneurs Cycling Club has cancelled the 2012 Canada Day Populaire.

The club’s website announced the 145-km recreational ride was canceled due to the risk of flooding along the course, which runs near the swollen Fraser River.

There’s still plenty of opportunity – and dry roads – for Rogues to get in weekend rides. Saturday at 7 a.m., we’ll leave the pool for a 50-mile ride; Sunday we’ve got a 70-miler on tap.

Ride safe – we’re just 15 sleeps from STP.
