Love this! We named Lanark County’s Warden’s Slow Roll after this one from Detroit.
Wonder what ever happened to the Wardens Slow Roll?

For years, Slow Roll Detroit was one of the largest weekly rides in North America, as much a civic ritual as a cycling event.

Did you know? Recent studies show that cycling for just 30 minutes, three times a week, can actually strengthen your brain’s memory hub and improve your recall. And here’s something that might surprise cyclists over 40: you don’t have to push yourself to exhaustion or smash intense intervals to see the benefits. Riding in Zone 2 is enough.

This means maintaining a steady, conversational pace where talking in full sentences is still easy. A ride that feels gentle rather than grueling. Your legs get warm but not burned out, and your heart rate stays around 60 to 70 percent of its maximum.

That’s the optimal range for boosting both your fitness and your brain.
