The Niagara 200 is back. We will be touring the vineyards, escarpment, and waterways of the Niagara Region. Lunch and Coffee stops are available on route with a BBQ at the finish line. We’ll be doing a remote start from my folks place in St. Catharines [19 Bascary Cres, St. Catharines, ON]. Please anticipate traffic if you are driving down the morning of. The group will leave at 8AM sharp, so it is recommended you arrive by 7:30am to get your gear in order. Bring money for coffee and lunch stops, bonking on this ride will not be a fun time. Tail lights as always are a good idea.
Food is paramount when riding distances like this. Do not skip out on an opportunity to eat at one of the stops, you will have a much nicer time if you are well fueled.
Once you reach the finish line we will be celebrating your big accomplishment, my parents will be running the BBQ with burgers, sausages etc.
Talk with your friends, coordinate carpooling to save gas money and minimize the number of cars in my parents neighborhood.
