Strong winds from the SW. Heading to Timmies in Port Colborne & then flying back.

Here's hoping the weatherman is wrong!!

Far Out Man! Long Steady Distance Ride to Grimsby.  109 km.  Coffee stop at Station One in Grimsby. I suggest a steady pace of 30-32 km/hr, but we can work out our speed issue on the road. There are not a lot of hills on this route, but there is a fairly long climb out of Grimsby on 30 Rd., which is the least bad option, and a few uphill sections on Roland.  The climb on 30 Rd. is mostly about 3% with one steep section which goes to 6%, then 9%, with a mercifully brief section at 14%. Even though I’m not the strongest climber, I was still able to manage it.

Winds are forecast from the west so will try to keep them at our back for the return trip.

Probably 3.5 hr cycling,

Hopefully winds remain true & we will have a bit of wind at our back on the return..............bill

Meander through the vineyards of St. Davids.  Mostly flat with Queenston climb at the end. Take the path if you like, regroup at the top.  Please don't drop your ride leader!
