The sun came out just before 9am this morning, and looked quite lovely under the mostly cloudy sky. Over the day we had a few moments when the sun emerged again, but it was mostly overcast. Oakley continues to be anxious, and has been chewing her leg. We found some tape and wrapped it upContinue reading “Prince Edward County – Day 4 – Millenium Trail to Wellington”

Prince Edward County – Day 3 – Codrington to Campbellford
Two years ago when we were in Peterborough, I planned a ride to Ranney Gorge, but we had more rides planned than we had days, and on the final day when choosing where to ride, none of us felt like a gran fondo, a 100 km ride. When planning this trip I recalled Ranney Gorge,Continue reading “Prince Edward County – Day 3 – Codrington to Campbellford”
Prince Edward County – Day 2 – Base 31, Picton, and Lake on the Mountain
We had a slow start this morning: the weather was a lovely 18° by the time we set out. We drove about 40 minutes east to Base31 where we parked and started our ride. Base31 operated as a military air training base until 1969. The site was acquired by PEC Community Partners in December 2021.Continue reading “Prince Edward County – Day 2 – Base 31, Picton, and Lake on the Mountain”
Prince Edward County – Day 1 – Travel Day and Trenton
Cindy and Oakley picked me up just after 1030. It’s was a cool and rainy day, and forecast to stay that way all day, so we weren’t in a particular hurry. We have come to Cindy’s sister’s new home near Carrying Place in Prince Edward County to dog sit Oakley. Oakley stayed in Brampton withContinue reading “Prince Edward County – Day 1 – Travel Day and Trenton”
Hillsburgh 2024 – Day 6 – Lake Belwood
On our final day, Barry wanted to get some tiles close to where we were staying, that Cindy and I had from a previous trip. Cindy and I wanted to do a ride around Lake Belwood, so we split up for the day. Cindy and I drove part of the way to the lake becauseContinue reading “Hillsburgh 2024 – Day 6 – Lake Belwood”
Hillsburgh 2024 – Day 5 – Waldemar to Arthur
The day started with Willy and Rusty in our bed. After four days of driving on gravel roads, my car is absolutely filthy. We were originally going to do a ride in Mono Township today, but yesterday when we were having coffee, we met a group of cyclists that mentioned the Upper Grand Trailway, aContinue reading “Hillsburgh 2024 – Day 5 – Waldemar to Arthur”
Hillsburgh 2024 – Day 3
We managed to leave the house about 9:10 this morning, and drove to an area, north of which Cindy and I had cycled last year, when we stayed in Hillsburgh. This bike was cut and mounted to make it seem like the tree had engulfed it. It was another ride with lots of gravel, butContinue reading “Hillsburgh 2024 – Day 3”
Hillsburgh 2024 – Day 2
Today we planned to do Barry’s second tile collection route, which again, were new tiles for him, but not for Cindy and me. He planned a coffee break at the Tin Roof Café in Erin, where we arranged for David and Dayle to meet us for lunch and treats, to celebrate Dayle’s 71st birthday. CindyContinue reading “Hillsburgh 2024 – Day 2”
Hillsburgh 2024 – Day 1
After attending Toronto Councillor Lily Cheng’s Community Ride, I drove us to Hillsburgh, where we are going to be staying for a week to look after Cindy‘s sister’s pets, while they are away. We arrived shortly before dinner, had an enjoyable meal, and enjoyed the hot tub before bed. It’s Barry first time staying inContinue reading “Hillsburgh 2024 – Day 1”
Erie Canalway – Day 13 – Niagara Falls to Brampton
We spent our final night at the same hotel at which we stayed the first night, which had a mediocre, carb heavy breakfast. We ate enough to satisfy our initial morning hunger, and then went back to the rooms to pack up, and for me to plan a route for us to explore Niagara Falls,Continue reading “Erie Canalway – Day 13 – Niagara Falls to Brampton”
