The course
The 140 km TheBluMoose Alvar gravel course, a loop from Ramara, near Orillia, out to Carden Alvar Provincial Park.
The start is at Tailwinds Bar & Grill, in Ramara Township near Orillia, Ontario. The loop heads east on the rolling country roads of Ramara, including Concession Road 13, then enters Kawartha Lakes on Kirkfield Road and Wylie Road to Carden Alvar Provincial Park, around km 50 — the main climb, about 47 metres between km 40 and km 50. It continues on McNamee Road, Doyle Road, Victoria Road, Alvar Road and McNabb Road, then comes back into Ramara on Sideroad 5 and Concession Road 12 to Tailwinds. The highest point is at 292 metres. This is the exact route plotted here — every turn at its precise intersection.

Make the Achievement Yours
Add a name, finish time or short dedication to turn the artwork into a personal record of the work behind the medal. Personalization is optional; leave the field blank for the original composition.
How It Is Made
The composition, hierarchy and final linework are directed by a person. A pen plotter then draws the artwork physically, line by line, with ink on paper. Small production variations can occur during physical plotting.
