East wind tomorrow morning so we'll head into St.Catharines, stop at Balzacs in Port Dalhousie for coffee and then head back home via Niagara-on-the-Lake.  To be honest, I just modified Marcus' route from last Saturday that got rained out.

It's Marcus' B ride, but maybe faster and definitely without a coffee stop. So we don't get wet.

Break at 41 km

Clockwise loop from Firemen's to Allanburg, St. Catharines, Niagara-on-the-Lake and back to Firemen's.  The Lakeshore bridge is closed tomorrow so we'll stop at Balzacs in Niagara-on-the-Lake for coffee.

Come and join us this Sunday (May 18th) for a gravel ride.  The ride will be a clockwise loop around Wainfleet following gravel roads and hard pack rail trails.  The gravel/trail ride is 73 km, with 65% gravel (hard packed gravel rail trail and gravel roads) and the balance paved road.  Ideally, you should have a gravel road bike or a hybrid/mountain bike.  A tire width of 30 – 35 mm would be ideal.  Expect an average pace of 22 – 24 km/hr, plus or minus.
