Route – This ride offer the unique opportunity to cruise across the Welland Canal on the Port Robinson Ferry (called Bridge-it). The restaurant on the east side of the Canal has changed names from Stevie Nic’s to Bridge 12 Bar and Eatery, but still has retained a bit of its former frontier atmosphere. The ride combines many riding landscapes; off-road on the Welland Canal, on-water using Bridge-it, on-road on the east side of the canal, across the short line rail tracks to Merritt Island and the Main Street Bridge in Welland, for a total of about 28 km. Find the cue sheet containing the map route here.
