This ride starting at 9 AM from the Burlington GO station is for riders who enjoy TBN's Urban Roller pace. It could be an all-day event in which case you can catch the last GO train back to Burlington. Buses depart on half hour like 4 28, 5 28, 6 34, 7 39, train at 8 07 pm
I observed that there were the 3 bike coaches in the consist of this weeks train to Niagara.
The route from Burlington GO to Niagara falls uses the Waterfront Trail to Beamsville, then Quarry Rd to gently climb the Niagara Escarpment to Fly Road. We use a few country quiet roads to get to the lookout at Fonthill. At the bottom of the hill in Fonthill is Gelato Village for washroom and gelato. Onward we go to Bridge-IT ferry. The captain will ask you if you are going to the bar, but we are not but simply taking the ferry one way and in about 1 hour we will be in Niagara falls. We should arrive at 4 pm. Refreshments first and dinner to follow. GO train departs at 8:00 pm and this is the last departure.
Fare update, Go has a $10 all day fare that you buy online & have available for inspection on a smart phone.
