We are a proud member of Cycling Canada's 1882 Collective National charitable fundraising program.
The Cranky Goat Gravel Ride - Ride, support, and experience the Collingwood Collective spirit.
Sunday July 26th, 2006.
Join us for the Cranky Goat Gravel Ride 2026, the Collingwood Collective's premier open club ride and a unique opportunity to experience our race team's specially curated gravel loops. Normally our club rides are closed to the public. This is your one chance to ride alongside coaches and racers from the Collingwood Collective, immerse yourself in the stunning Niagara Escarpment, and directly contribute to the dreams of our athletes.
Impact Beyond the Ride: All profit from this ride goes directly to supporting our six dedicated racers in their national team pursuits and essential travel costs. Every one of these racers stood on a National level podium in 2025. By participating, you're not just riding; you're investing in the future of Canadian cycling talent.
