Distance and timing basis

The recorded total and the leg detail need reconciliation. Inspect the leg notes before using this record for timing or navigation. Stops, delays, approach and any separate return travel add time. Basis: producer-declared routed record.

Reading history stays on this device. My road watch requires a separate selection; opening it does not subscribe this ride.

Distance and riding time are measured on the routed road. Check local closures and conditions before you ride.

Waypoint introductions and full write-ups

  1. 1. Fort Erie

    Across a fast, deep stretch of river, the Buffalo skyline sits so close you can almost read the signs. Fort Erie faces it from the Canadian side at the point where Lake Erie pours into the Niagara River, and the Peace Bridge, opened in 1927, connects the two countries in a long curve of arches over the current. This is a border town of about sixteen thousand people, and for riders it is often the first or last taste of Canada on a trip around the Great Lakes.

    Recorded stop-planning note

    May refer to an earlier itinerary; verify against your selected route before riding.

    Planning note

    Fort Erie sits at 0 km, early in the day. Next is Niagara Falls.

  2. 2. Niagara Falls

    The noise reaches you first, a deep, continuous roar, and then a column of mist rising above the trees. Riding up the Niagara Parkway from the south, the Horseshoe Falls appear suddenly: a vast curved wall of water, about fifty metres high, pouring over the edge of the escarpment into the gorge below. From the railing at Table Rock you stand almost at the lip, close enough to feel the spray on your face.
