This is another annual TBN Friday night favourite. It's s relaxed ride that explores Ward's Island, Algonquin Island, Hanlan's Point, and Centre Island, and has a few breaks for selfies, group photos, or shots of the skyline as the sun sets.

The ferry to Centre Island departs at 6:40 PM so please arrive in time to get your ticket and gather together. The ticket includes the return trip to the city from the eastern Ward's Island terminal at 8:45 PM.

As usual, it might get cool out on the water in the evening, so dress for whatever the weather conditions are, and have working lights and your helmet.

And finally here's a fun video about boats but really nothing to do with cycling: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9iUjx4_X1qA
